If you’ve landed here, you are ready for things to feel different.

You love your partner—but you’re stuck in the same fights, the same disconnection, or the same unspoken tension. Therapy can help you feel seen, understood, and connected again.

Hi, I’m Jess Fox (she/they)

Let's Work Together!

You might be here because…

You feel like two ships passing in the night

You don’t feel heard, understood, or prioritized

It feels scary to say what you actually feel

You’re exploring opening your relationship, or already have, and want to stay connected

Intimacy or desire feels distant, mismatched, or complicated

You know something isn’t working, but you’re not sure how to change it.

You might be thinking…

"I don't feel like a priority to you"
“What if I lose you if I say this out loud?”
“Why is it so hard to say what I actually feel?”
"Why aren't we close anymore?"

I work with:

BIPOC & mixed race & multicultural couples
LGBTQ+, queer, trans, kinky, and non-monogamous relationships
Couples navigating intimacy, desire, or communication challenges

You don’t need to fit perfectly into a label~
But if you want a deeper connection and more honest conversations, you’re in the right place.

What Guides My Work

So much of how you love and relate was learned long before this relationship.

Systems like racism, white supremacy, patriarchy, and family messages shape how we communicate, what we need, and what feels safe to express.

Together, we’ll explore the ways you keep getting pulled back to the same place and ask: Does this actually align with who you are and how you want to show up in your relationships?

I won’t always get it perfect, and that’s part of the process.
What I will do is stay present with you, ask the questions you haven’t been asked before, and help both of you feel heard in a different way

This work isn’t about quick fixes.
I pay attention to the small moments. The comments, reactions, and patterns that often hold something deeper underneath.

At times, I may slow you down or step in, not to be rude, but to really understand what’s being said.

This work can be challenging, and we’ll move at a pace that honors where you are.

Connection is possible, and I want to help you get there.
