About Me
Sexologist - Educator - Therapist
Danae (she/her) is a Relationship & Family Therapist, Sexologist, and Educator living on Noongar Wardandi country. Danae has the mindset that talking about sex, pleasure, and relationships does not have to be shameful or taboo. A natural-born communicator, she enjoys creating a setting where her clients can feel relaxed and free to talk about their sexual health in a safe, judgment-free environment. She can help you learn more about communication within your relationships and for your children.
She can help you explore intimacy, pleasure, sexual difficulties and help you find more enjoyment from sex. She aims to give balanced advice in a non-judgemental setting. As an LGBTQIA+, neurodivergent friendly and non-touch therapist, Danae creates a safe space where you can enhance your relationships and make your sex life more fulfilling.
Patient well-being is her number one priority, and she goes above and beyond to help you through all your obstacles. Danae follows your journey through exploration of sexual functioning, intimacy, desire, pleasure, mismatched libido, and other relationship difficulties.
Nothing is taboo.
Personal Boundaries Statement
Personally, I have a passion for congruent behaviour and supporting my local community. This means that whether I meet with you in a therapy session or in our local shopping centre, I am the same person. I joke the same and have the same values, and ethical views. When I take on new clients, I ensure that their privacy is paramount, that they feel respected, and that our relationship is genuine. As such, when a client begins with me, it’s with an understanding that I am a woman, a sister, a daughter, and a partner, all in a social, emotional, and sexual context.
If I meet clients in a social setting, I may smile and keep going. It is up to them whether they wish to say hello or not. I don’t mind. If I see them in a “very social” setting, I may leave to ensure both of us feel comfortable and ensure that all codes of ethics and codes of conduct are maintained and protected. As an advocate for diverse sexuality and relationship rights, a women’s rights campaigner, and a strong voice for acceptance of unique voices and privileges, my voice may be loud in some settings outside the therapy room. As an ethical therapist, I believe in the need to ride these boundaries, actively checking on them, maintaining a self-reflective practice, and repairing them when needed.
As a local professional, keen to support our local community, I believe I am part of a village. Our village. When working within that village, there will be times when the physical space won’t allow me to be completely invisible in our community, and I am hoping that this personal statement will ensure that despite both client and therapists co-existing in the same space, sometimes outside the four walls of counselling, our village is a safe one to be in for both parties.
Kink and LGBTQIA+ friendly. All are welcome
