Ioana Avery

Direct, deeply emotionally attuned, creative and original. I don't follow rigid models or keep you in endless processing, I pay attention to what's actually happening between you and within you. My work is multicultural, systemic and sex positive, with an emphasis on real change, not just insight. I come from an Eastern European background.

Take you to places that you have avoided-deep within your subconscious, so you can understand, become aware and actually change, not stay stuck in repetitive cycles. You won't do this alone, supported, truly connected to your deepest longings, fears and needs. We create a grounded, safe, warm connection where you can access your deeper needs and longings.

A firecracker, direct, deeply attuned, and unexpectedly funny. They often say I see things quickly and name what they have never said out loud, with clarity and courage. They feel relaxed, unjudged, and free to be fully themselves, while also being challenged in a way that creates real change.

I work with individuals and couples navigating sexuality, desire, and relationship complexity. This includes identity exploration, desire mismatch, infidelity, and out-of-control sexual behavior. I am highly specialized in couples that present with high-conflict couples dealing with long-standing resentment, emotional injuries, and communication breakdowns.
