about us
Our Vision
We founded The Love, Sex, and Gender Center because we believe everyone has the right to feel vibrancy and fulfillment in their love and sex lives. Love, pleasure, and sex are integral to our human experience. We also believe in the safe, therapeutic use of psychedelics to support depth of healing, personal, and spiritual growth.
We are a collective of sex, relationship, and ketamine therapists who are passionate about informing and empowering our community through psychotherapy and coaching.
Ketamine Therapist, Relationship and Sex Therapist
Heather Bourne MA, LPCC (she/hers)
Specialties: Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy for couples and individuals, Couples Therapy, Sex therapy
Intimacy is the foundation of all relationships, and that begins with your relationship to yourself. I am excited to support you in reclaiming your power and cultivating deeply satisfying relationships by developing a deeper awareness of your body and spirit.
I earned my Master of Arts in Somatic Counseling from Naropa University and currently practice as a Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate (LPCC) and a Registered Dance/Movement Therapist (R-DMT). My greatest joy in life is creating safe spaces for people to reconnect with the wisdom of their bodies. In today’s chaotic world, many of us struggle with stress, disconnection, and relational challenges. I believe heart-centered therapy is a transformative tool to help clients reclaim their sense of agency, deepen their connection to themselves and others, and awaken to their own inner wisdom.
I work with individuals and couples through a somatic, attachment-oriented lens. My goal is to guide clients in building greater awareness of their bodies, cultivating trust, and meeting emotional barriers with compassion. I draw from dance/movement therapy and sensorimotor psychotherapy to assist clients through empowering, creative interventions. For couples, I incorporate Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) techniques to help navigate conflict, improve communication, and foster deeper intimacy by exploring both emotional and physical dynamics within their relationships.
I also offer Ketamine-Assisted Therapy (KAT) to support clients in accessing deeper layers of healing, self-discovery, and transformation. With a holistic approach, I integrate ketamine as a powerful tool for unlocking new perspectives, processing trauma, and facilitating emotional breakthroughs. My background in somatic therapy and dance/movement therapy allows me to help clients integrate the experiences that arise during these sessions into their bodies and daily lives, creating lasting change.
As an ally to the LGBTQIA+ community and an advocate for marginalized populations, I am committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and affirming space for all individuals. I work with clients of all identities and backgrounds, honoring their unique experiences and challenges while supporting them in their healing and growth.
SEX AND COUPLES THERAPIST
Keri Signoracci, MA Clinical Mental Health Counseling, LPCC, (she/her)
Hi, I’m Keri! My utmost passion is supporting you individually or in your partnerships to achieve healing, connection, and security in your relationships. Intimacy has no limits when safety and other preliminary foundations are in place, whether you are trying to achieve an expansive sexual connection, heal relational wounds, experience a profound state of transcendent unity, or reawaken the seemingly buried love and connection that initially brought you together.
Grounded in present-centered, somatic, trauma-informed, and attachment-based healing practices, my approach is marked by compassion, non-judgment, and a deep commitment to honoring each individual’s innate essence.
I hold a Master of Arts Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Naropa University, with a concentration in Mindfulness-Based Transpersonal Counseling. My training includes certification as a PACT-trained Level 1 Therapist, relationship coaching through the Relationship School, levels one and two of Relational Life Therapy with Terry Real, Integrative Sex Therapy, NARM, Gestalt, IFS, training in Cluster B personalities, divorce recovery, co-parenting, and blending families.
I offer a holistic approach encompassing mindfulness, creativity, attachment-centered, and somatic-focused interventions. My expertise extends to working with diverse populations, including individuals and couples from various sexual and relational orientations and those navigating non-traditional relationship configurations.
From sitting in silence on a meditation cushion for months at a time, leading relationship workshops, being a full-time Mom, step-parenting, working with children for many years, teaching yoga, writing, painting, and studying Eastern Religions. I arrived in Boulder, Colorado, in my early 20s and have lived here for the last thirty years. I have two adult children, a stepson and a golden retriever who is a substitute child now that my husband and I are empty-nesting.
SEX AND COUPLES THERAPIST
Alexander Goodyear, MA, LPCC, (he/him)
I’m dedicated to helping people enhance relationships and foster emotional intimacy. I bring a deep passion and skill for couples and sex therapy. It’s incredibly vulnerable to talk about relationship struggles especially if they are connected to sex. I support my clients by helping them to release shame and claim their worthiness for love and the relationship they desire.
I combine evidence-based techniques with a profound understanding of human connection. I would be honored to guide you toward healthier communication, greater mutual understanding, and a more fulfilling intimate life.
I particularly love supporting individuals and couples exploring polyamory and ethical non-monogamy, although I support whatever relationship dynamic works best for you. My work with couples is attachment-focused – prioritizing developing a secure bond where both of you get to feel safe in the relationship.
In addition to couples, I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, relational distress, sexuality, identity distress, and life transitions. Through a mindfulness-based lens, I can support you in cultivating more awareness, embodiment, somatic resources, congruence, authenticity, and empowerment. I believe the victory is in the process.
I am an LPCC with a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health, with a concentration in Mindfulness and Transpersonal Counseling from Naropa University. I utilize Gestalt, IFS, attachment-based, emotion-focused, and relational approaches in my work to invoke an individual’s (and couples’) unique inherent wisdom.
I passionately work with adults, and couples to better understand themselves by creating an open, warm, and compassionate environment. As an adopted, Queer cis-man of color I specialize in working with the LGBTQ+ community, as well as folx who hold other marginalized identities. There is power in your story being heard. You are not alone.
Sex and Couples Therapist
Kate Rose DeCoste, MA, LPCC, (she/hers)
I am a mindfulness-based psychotherapist who specializes in cultivating secure-relationship attachment and healthy sexuality in individuals and couples. My work focuses on empowerment and liberation, centering on intimacy and desire. I believe intimacy begins with genuine connection, compassion rooted in presence, and radical honesty.
My therapeutic approach is grounded in the integration of attachment theory and somatic awareness to provide a basis for working with relationships in a collaborative and creative way, individual to each client and couple’s unique expression. A graduate of Naropa University in Transpersonal Psychology, I blend in my Master’s level training with a Psychobiological Approach to Couples Therapy (PACT Level I Certified). I also hold a certificate in advanced training in Gestalt Eco-Therapy, a nature and body-based healing modality that incorporates avenues of healing attachment wounds, addiction, and sexuality through re-learning attunement and attachment to self and our eco-system.
Over the past seven years, I have immersed myself in multiple lineages and teachings of Tantric, Taoist & Sacred Sexuality, as well as taken workshops under the International Institute of Clinical Sexology.
I work with individuals diverse in sexual expression, gender, and relationship style.
My areas of focus include guiding individuals and couples towards secure attachment, rebuilding trust and safety after trauma, healing relationships with body image, alternative relationship styles, dismantling shame, sacred sexuality, and psychedelic integration. I am a multicultural and trauma-informed counselor, LGBTQIAP+ BDSM inclusive, sex-positive, and kink allied.
I am so passionate about this work because I believe in every given moment, we are in a relationship, and through relationships have choices in corrective healing experiences and rewiring neural pathways to fully experience the vastness of our humanness.
Co-founder, Sex and Couples Therapist
K. Michelle Johnson, MA, LPC, PACT-II (she/they)
I am a psychotherapist, coach, yoga teacher, musician, artist, and dog lover. I am passionate about the effectiveness of psychotherapy and coaching to empower individuals and couples to create fulfilling relationships and satisfying sex lives.
My Master’s degree is in Transpersonal Psychology from Naropa University; this is a holistic and mindful approach to psychotherapy. I believe that we are more than just talking heads and therapy is most healing when integrating mind, body, heart and soul. I have completed advanced trainings in couples and sex therapy at Denver Family Institute, as well as through a Psychobiological Approach to Couples Therapy (PACT). I am a level II PACT therapist. I love working with both individuals and couples. I am constantly in awe of the healing, joy, and deep connection I am honored to witness everyday in my office.
My purpose is to help people of all genders and orientations to embrace their sexuality and call in the love they want. I fully believe you can create the love, confidence, sex, and relationship you desire.
Co-Founder, Sex and Couples Therapist
Lyndsey Lyons, MA, LPC
(they/she)
I’m passionate about supporting people and helping them to explore the depths of their souls to live more meaningful, connected lives. I am deeply inspired by the healing potential of expanded states of consciousness; psychedelic medicine and erotic exploration can offer acess to profound states and deep healing in their own unique ways with the proper set and setting.
I believe that secure, loving relationships are the ultimate healing medicine. We can heal through building these relationships: whether they be therapeutic relationships, relationships with partners, spouses, friends, community, self, spirituality, or the Earth.
I work with people who have diverse experiences with sexuality, gender, and relationship style. My areas of focus include, healing sexual trauma, embracing embodiment and pleasure, exploring gender and queer identities, navigating BDSM and desire, and psychedelic integration & ketamine therapy.
I graduated from Naropa University with an MA in Contemplative Psychotherapy. I am a DARe Practitioner ( Dynamic Attachment REpatterning), PACT Couple Therapist (level 1), and Somatic Trauma Therapist (Somatic Experience Beginning and Intermediate levels & Trauma Dynamics). I am a current participant in a 3 year intensive Psychedelic Therapy Training. I’m an army veteran, I’ve collaborated with sex workers, and I’ve worked with incarcerated populations – all of which informs my practice today. I enjoy spending time in the mountains and value love & connection above all else.
