Transforming mental healthcare

Dr. Nahreen Aref, AMFT

Sex & Relationship Therapist | Educator | Researcher

I’m Nahreen Aref, a sex and relationship therapist who helps individuals and couples navigate intimacy, desire, and emotional safety with depth, humor, and care. I specialize in supporting people navigating sexual shame, trauma, and relationship challenges, whether monogamous, poly, queer, or exploring new paradigms of connection. Alongside my lived experience, I bring a PhD, three master’s degrees, and advanced training in sex therapy, somatic depth psychotherapy, and Reiki —equipping me to meet clients with both depth and rigor as I help them step into freer, more fulfilling relationships.

A modern approach

Clients often tell me I help them feel safe enough to say the unsayable, and brave enough to do something different.

Our work together will be collaborative, creative, and radically compassionate. Whether you’re processing shame and trauma, navigating painful sex, exploring kink, or trying to reignite intimacy with your partner, therapy can be a space where your truth and your pleasure belong.
