Nikita Fernandes
Business Excerpt
Providing culturally sensitive, trauma-informed, poly & kink-friendly, and queer-affirming therapy through an anti-oppressive lens. As a relational therapist, what guides my work is my own lived experiences of being in the kink and poly scene as well as the experiences of the people I am closest to. I take a person-in-environment individualized and evidenced-based approach.
Business Description

For oppressed people to intentionally cultivate pleasure is an act of resistance - Ingrid LaFleur.

With me, therapy can be a transformative experience. I hold a secure environment for my clients to discuss challenges with their sexuality and oppression. I draw on my own first-hand knowledge of navigating kink/sex-positive environments. I support clients in building sexual self-esteem, navigating sexual liberation, and processing sexual trauma. I believe in helping people to navigate challenging life circumstances while recognizing how their intersectional identities impact them.

I help clients think about their values and the roles that these values play in their lives. I see therapy as a rehearsal for life outside of sessions and take great care to build trust with my clients.
