In taking care of one’s quality of life, one must take care to look after their relationships and nurture their sexuality. It is self investment, and arguably one of the most important investments we can make in our lives. Uncover your desires, overcome your barriers and discover a path to self actualisation without judgment or taboo.

SASKIA KALWINEK  –  Sexual Therapist

My name is Saskia Kalwinek and I am a Sydney based Sex Therapist (Sexologist). I am passionate about empowering people to explore, enjoy and improve their sexual life, health, self-esteem, communication, and knowledge. My background is Polish. I grew up in Lodz (Poland) and moved to study in Australia. I have also lived and worked in the Netherlands, New Zealand, and Thailand. I have travelled extensively, and have met and lived with people from various cultures and backgrounds. My multinational friendships and relationships have taught me a non- judgmental, understanding, and proactive approach to life. My experiences have made me realise the value of being true to oneself. Those lessons are especially important when approaching issues of mental health. I incorporate all of my knowledge gained during studies, work, and travels into my approach to counselling. I believe that everyone is entitled to a pleasurable and functional sexual life. Transformation sometimes needs therapeutic help. I want to allow my clients to share their stories in an environment that is free of judgment. My mission is to help
people see their sexual life not as shameful but as a gift that they can enjoy.

Discovering the Power and Potential of Sex Counselling

The ways we approach and consider intimacy are integral to who we are. Although you may not yet think of it as such, a healthy approach to sex is an important element of mental health and wellness. Like in other areas of our lives, we can encounter problems, roadblocks, conflict and many concerns. The goal of our sex counselling is to help you navigate these issues.

Counselling, Intimacy Therapy, and More

Through our primary certified practitioner, Saskia Kalwinek, we provide comprehensive services that include individual and couples counselling, guided therapy, and other related services. We tailor our approach to every individual.

Our main modality for couples is Relational Life Therapy by Terry Real, where we develop positive communication skills in your relationship. We propose Discernment counselling for people on the brink of divorce, where we discuss three options to follow.

Where applicable, we follow some of the most researched and efficient Gottman principles on relationship stability.

Using the principles of sexological study and contemporary mental health tools, we’ll build a plan based on your needs. Let’s work together to move from where you are to where you want to be in your sex life.
