Ali Rose Lesakowski, LMSW (She/They/We)
Staff Therapist
As a Licensed Master Social Worker, I work with adults and partners who want more honest, connected, and expansive relationships with themselves and others, including folks who are questioning, and those in LGBTQIA+, kink/BDSM, and consensual non-monogamous communities. Starting therapy around sex, relationships, or identity can feel vulnerable—and you don’t have to navigate it alone.
My approach is collaborative, affirming, and rooted in curiosity and compassion. I primarily work from a trauma-informed, Internal Family Systems (IFS) lens, integrating somatic and body-based practices to help you build a deeper connection to yourself, work with protective parts with compassion, and move through shame toward a more authentic expression of desire, pleasure, and relational freedom. I aim to create a space that is warm, direct, and nonjudgmental—where all parts of you are welcome, and where we move at a pace that honors both safety and discomfort, while together finding a healthy edge for growth.
Our first session is a space to get to know each other, talk about what’s bringing you in, and begin shaping what you want more of in your relationships, your sexuality, and your life.
I came to this work through my own healing journey and a deep commitment to accessible, affirming, and liberating care. I believe people deserve spaces where their desires, identities, and relational choices are met with respect and care. If this resonates, I welcome you to reach out when you feel ready.
