Desire and Bloom Therapy
Where growth and desire intertwine
About
Helping you reconnect, rediscover and grow together
I’m Dr. Shie Benisti, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, AASECT Certified Sex Therapist, and PhD in Clinical Sexology specializing in sexual desire, intimacy, and relationships. I work with individuals and couples navigating differences in desire, sexual concerns, relationship patterns, anxiety, and experiences from the past that may be affecting their lives today.
My approach is warm, empathic, and direct. I integrate sex therapy, relational and attachment-based approaches, and EMDR when appropriate to help you better understand yourself, your relationships, and the patterns that may be keeping you stuck.
