Erotic connection is tightly knit with mental health. I bet you know that its difficult to feel well when your s*xuality is going great

Sadly, people often wait until they feel better to resume a dimmed se× life. Maybe, your true erotic self is the way forward. Maybe disinhibiting, or reigning in the lover within you is the way to prevent future lulls in your mental health.

As you know, eroticism is not always s*xual (and s*x is not always erotic). Yet, there are few things as enticing as mutual enthusiastic desire.

For almost 15 years in clinical practice as a psychotherapist, I have been in awe of how determined my clients are to improve their intimate lives. Regardless of trauma, pain, shame, illness, therapeutic success abounds. It is rarely just the treatment of dysfunction; rather, it is an improvement in the quality of erotic fulfillment and is the mindful development of skills that facilitate sustainable connection.

Don't wait until you're avoiding affection while struggling with your s*xuality. I have yet to meet a person who doesn’t have s*xual shame and vulnerability. Even those who are lucky enough to have never been s*xually violated share stories of embarrassment and moments of disconnection. We are here.

To the public, as well as professionals with a shared interest in treatment, research, and education of erotic connection - Welcome! No question is silly. We are so happy to hear from you.

Meet Jaylynn

I believe that fostering a supportive and non-judgmental environment creates space for success and ensures the clients feel comfortable and connected.

I embody the ideals of both Humanistic and Holistic approaches to counselling which means I take a client's whole picture into account (lifestyle, culture, gender, relationships, etc.) while also maintaining unconditional positive regard in the counselling space. I use interventions from Adlerian psychology, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness approaches, and Solution Focused Therapy to help my clients.

I work with couples as well as individuals and the space I create is safe for those seeking s*x therapy. LGBTQIA+ and kink community folks are welcome!

✨️ Meet Erika ✨️

How do people learn to feel comfortable with themselves, know what they want, set boundaries, and maintain an erotic connection with a partner over time? I was surprised that none of these important issues made an appearance in my clinical psychology doctoral program.

Additionally, body image dissatisfaction and dysmorphia can seriously derail one’s s*xuality. While working with clients who have eating disorders, I realized that most of them had little to no experience speaking openly about such an important part of their lives. Many told me they had been in therapy for years without ever talking about s*x; they understood from their therapist's silence that it was taboo.


I am passionate about helping people lead satisfying and meaningful lives and hope that my comfort dialoguing eroticism, my interest, and my experience, invite you to take a first step towards meeting your goals.

Taanishi from Diane!

Taanishi, (Hello, in Métis), my name is Diane. I stepped into Admin work in 2020 and it's been an amazing adventure. I love what I do and I love helping people.

I am Metis and a proud member of the Metis Nation of Ontario. When I'm not being an Admin Magician, I love to be in the woods, play my guitar, bead, and create art. Most of that is done with my trusty pup Link by my side.

You will get to know me well as I work with Amanda here at Erotic Empathy as the Administrative Assistant. I've had the pleasure of speaking with so many clients since I started and I'm honoured to assist you as you journey towards improving your intimate lives.

Truly, I wish you all the best and look forward to welcoming you to Erotic Empathy.

I almost forgot to post!! I have now celebrated my 10 year anniversary with the Westmount office!! 🛋

Remembrance day, November 11th, 2013 was the first clinical day having hung a shingle, as they say. After 4 years in practice, I had finally earned my very own safe space; a beautiful room in which I would hold space for others.

These walls have been witness to, sacred secrets, meaningful truths, grand reconnections, and those for whom I wish I could have done more. During covid, there was time this room waited for me.

I love this space. Thank you to those of you who have shared it with me.

To many more!! 🥂💝
