Sarah Filgueiras "Figs", LMHC

Welcome to my realm of healing, growth, and sexual empowerment! I'm Sarah Maria Filgueiras, known as "Figs," and I'm a dedicated psychotherapist with a strong passion for guiding individuals and couples through their intimate journeys while embracing their genuine sexual identities. With a warm and inviting approach, I've crafted a safe haven where you can freely delve into your desires, conquer challenges, and foster a wholesome and gratifying connection with your sexuality.

​

My extensive experience across diverse communities has instilled in me a profound respect for the distinct experiences and struggles individuals face in their intimate lives. By adopting a non-judgmental and validating demeanor, I strive to make you feel truly acknowledged and understood as you set forth on your path to sexual well-being.

Through a collaborative and holistic technique, I tailor my therapeutic methods to suit your specific needs and aspirations. I draw from well-established practices such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness techniques, and a multicultural feminist approach. These tools empower you to surmount sexual concerns, address relationship dynamics, and cultivate a sense of sexual self-assurance and contentment.

​

My specialization lies in assisting individuals and couples grappling with a wide array of sexual concerns—ranging from diminished desire and performance anxiety to orgasm challenges, erectile dysfunction, sexual trauma, and issues unique to the LGBTQ+ community. With my gentle and compassionate demeanor, I've designed an environment where you can openly explore your deepest concerns and find empowerment and healing.

​

Beyond my practice, I'm fervently committed to advancing sexual education and dismantling the stigma surrounding discussions about sex and relationships. I conduct workshops, engage in radio discussions, and participate in community outreach initiatives to enhance awareness and foster healthy attitudes towards sexuality.

If you're in search of a supportive, knowledgeable, and empathetic therapist who can steer you toward a more gratifying and enriching sexual life, I'm here to extend my understanding and expertise. Together, we'll embark on a transformative expedition of self-discovery and sexual empowerment. Embrace the vibrant and authentic expression of your distinct sexual self, with me by your side.
