Moushumi Ghose

Moushumi Ghose has been working with couples and individuals since opening her private practice in 2007. She offers kink-positive and sex-positive couples therapy and has a specialization in ethical and consensual non-monogamy while supporting and empowering relationships of all formats and sexual lives. She is a licensed marriage and family therapist in California with 17 years of clinical experience.

Her work centers on strengthening communication, increasing awareness of desires and driving forces, and fostering a deeper connection between mind and body. She supports people in breaking down shame and guilt, cultivating more positive attitudes toward sex, sexuality, gender, and fluidity, and developing healthier approaches to intimacy and self-expression.

Moushumi addresses relationship concerns and brings extensive experience with ethical and consensual non-monogamy, polyamory, kink, LGBTQIA++ identities, sex work, dating issues, creative expression, sexual and social minorities, gender-related matters, and working with BIPOC communities. She also has substantial experience working with trauma connected to religion and sexuality.

She views personal and relational healing as interconnected - relationships cannot be fully healed without self-reflection, and psychological experiences often manifest in the body. Areas she commonly helps with include polyamory and consensual non-monogamy, sex therapy, general relationship concerns, LGBTQ matters, support for transgender, agender, and non-binary people, infidelity, sexual trauma, fear of intimacy, low sexual desire and arousal difficulties, feelings of guilt or anxiety around sex, uncertainty about sexual orientation or gender, emotional or love addictions, career changes, and navigating breakups. Her specialties also encompass LGBT-related work, relationship coaching, stress and anxiety, family issues, trauma and abuse, grief, sleep concerns, self-esteem, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue, all within her California practice.
