Woman with curly brown hair sitting on the floor leaning against a beige couch in a bright living room with large windows and green plants outside.

I’m Jassy (she/her), a psychosexual counsellor and the founder of Second Base.

My work is collaborative, evidence informed and grounded in an understanding of how sexual pain, intimacy and pleasure are shaped by the nervous system, emotional safety and lived experience.

Outside the therapy space, I’m a recovering perfectionist who values art, good and a dinner with wine and friends. I’m an avid surfer and someone who intentionally practises building a life that feels meaningful and romantic in ordinary moments. This perspective informs how I work with people.
