Kimmy Wu, MHC, MA
SHE/HER
I’m a passionate Taiwanese-American psychotherapist and pleasure activist who provides trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and sex/kink-affirming therapy services. I approach therapy with an intersectional and psychodynamic framework to help clients from all walks of life navigate life transitions and face challenges related to self-worth, perfectionism, identity, shame, sexuality, career, relationships, and overall well-being.
I believe that the foundation for effective therapy is the co-creation between the therapist and client of a brave space that embodies curiosity, safety, compassion, empathy, accountability, and, most importantly, hope.
While I acknowledge that therapy and transformation aren't going to be comfortable at all times, I meet my clients' discomfort with a nuanced balance of mindfulness and comradery.
I received my M.A. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Northwestern University. As a sex therapist with specialized training from the Institute of Contemporary Psychotherapy, I work with clients in addressing sexual concerns, intimacy issues, and relational dynamics with sensitivity and an understanding of diverse expressions of sexuality and relationships.
