Happy New Year! Welcome to 2023! Our team at Rouse Relational Wellness wants to welcome you to the new year, and celebrate our achievements in 2022.

In the last year, our team has done some amazing things, to toot our own horn a bit 📯:

• The Rouse team grew to six stellar staff therapists

• Expanded to a beautiful four-office suite in the heart of the Castro

• Held multiple free Ask a Sex Educator webinars to provide excellent sexual education resources to our community

• Offered live workshops on topics related to sex and anxiety, sex and intimacy for survivors, and mindfulness for sex anxiety

• Gave back to our community such as AIDS LifeCycle and SF Women Against Rape

• Provided hundreds of hours of sliding scale therapy to marginalized communities

• Partnered with like-minded organizations like Tia, Sea Psychiatry, and Bodyful Physical Therapy and Wellness

In the coming year, we plan to:

• Continue expanding our team

• Provide excellent sex and relationship therapy in person and over telehealth
