Nice to meet you,

A woman with shoulder-length brown hair, wearing large clear glasses, a green knit sweater, and earrings, standing in front of a brick wall.

I’m Zoey Watson-Hanson, an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist offering online therapy to individuals throughout Washington State.

I have specialized training in sex therapy as well as extensive experience working with a range of mental health conditions including anxiety, mood disorders, psychosis, and trauma.

I support clients across a range of concerns involving sexual functioning or pain, sexual trauma, compulsive sexual behaviors, identity, and internalized stigma. See my about me for a more comprehensive list! Much of my work is with folks in the LGBTQIA+, ethical non-monogamy, and kink communities, though I welcome clients from all backgrounds and identities.

My practice is rooted in psychodynamic theory, which integrates attachment theory and somatic work. I also draw on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) as needed, alongside the PLISSIT model of sex therapy (Permission, Limited Information, Specific Suggestions, Intensive Treatment). In everything I do, my approach is grounded in feminism, cultural sensitivity, and compassion.

I aim to create a comfortable and safe space for you to work through difficult topics related to mental health, sexual functioning and identity. I value humor and self expression. I plan to always show up as my authentic self so that you can too.
