WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY
“Suosittelen lämpimästi seksuaaliterapeutti Katarina Warrasta, jonka työ on ollut minulle merkityksellistä ja avartavaa. Katarina tuo terapeuttiseen prosessiin raikasta näkökulmaa, joka keskittyy seksuaalisuuden ohella todelliseen läheisyyteen ja itsetuntemukseen.
Nykyään seksuaalisuuteen liittyvät odotukset ovat usein epärealistisia, painottaen suorittamista ja välittömiä tuloksia, mikä aiheuttaa paineita niin nuorille kuin aikuisille. Katarina Warras ymmärtää tämän ongelman ja käsittelee sitä herkällä ja asiantuntevalla tavalla. Hänen terapiassaan ei pyritä vain "onnistumaan" seksuaalisessa kanssakäymisessä, vaan tutkimme yhdessä syvempää yhteyttä, läheisyyttä ja aitoa intiimiyttä.
Terapeuttina Katarina osaa käsitellä vaikeita aiheita rauhallisesti ja hyväksyvästi, mikä luo turvallisen ympäristön, jossa asiakkaat voivat jakaa tunteitaan ja huoliaan. Hän auttaa ymmärtämään, että seksuaalisuus on monimuotoinen ja henkilökohtainen kokemus, joka ei rajoitu vain fyysisiin suorituksiin.
Suosittelen lämpimästi Katarinaa Sinulle, joka haluat tarkastella omaa seksuaalisuutta ja siihen liittyviä ongelmia tai itsetunto paineita laaja-alaisemmin ja oppia, miten saavuttaa tasapaino niin itsensä kanssa kuin aito yhteys kumppaniisi. Hänen asiantunteva ja empaattinen lähestymistapansa on elintärkeä nykykulttuurissa, jossa suorituspaineet voivat hämärtää läheisyyden ja kumppanuuden todellista merkitystä.”

“I warmly recommend sex therapist Katarina Warras, whose work has been meaningful and eye-opening for me. Katarina brings a fresh perspective to the therapeutic process, focusing not only on sexuality but also on genuine intimacy and self-awareness.
Today, expectations around sexuality are often unrealistic, emphasizing performance and immediate results, which creates pressure for both young people and adults. Katarina Warras understands this issue and addresses it with sensitivity and expertise. In her therapy, the goal is not simply to “succeed” in sexual interactions, but to explore a deeper connection, closeness, and authentic intimacy together.
As a therapist, Katarina is able to approach difficult topics with calmness and acceptance, creating a safe environment where clients can share their feelings and concerns. She helps people understand that sexuality is a diverse and deeply personal experience that goes beyond physical performance.
I highly recommend Katarina to anyone who wants to explore their own sexuality, related challenges, or self-esteem pressures in a more holistic way, and to learn how to find balance within themselves as well as a genuine connection with their partner. Her knowledgeable and empathetic approach is especially valuable in today’s culture, where performance pressures can blur the true meaning of intimacy and partnership.”

“Katarina's sessions have allowed me to delve deeper into my own body and mind allowing me to understand my sexual self a lot more. She provided a kind and safe space to encourage discussion and openness. She has a thoughtful approach and takes into consideration your own boundaries and limits and builds her sessions around that - for me that was solution based and hands on sessions, which is my favourite way to learn. Overall, my sessions with Katarina provided me with clarity to move forward with my sexual self and be open and excited to explore that side of myself more. Katarina is an empathetic, attentive and warm soul who is a joy to work with.”

“These therapy sessions have offered me a safe space to explore my emotional life and issues with intimacy, which I have been struggling with my whole adult life. I really loved Katarina’s openness and honesty, and it has helped me to deal with my issues with kindness and bravery. I loved our sessions, they were so comfortable and Katarina has a great deal of cultural sensitivity, it was a space where I never felt judged or misunderstood.”

“While transitioning in to a new big chapter in my life, Katarina facilitated the space for me to come in to contact with the shadow sides of myself that might create difficulties or try to sabotage the beautiful things that were on the horizon.
I felt quite nervous, but Katarina has a way of creating truly safe spaces where every part of oneself is welcomed and embraced. I felt very vulnerable showing the parts of myself that are attached to deep amounts of shame, but she made those parts feel not only seen and heard, but also loved and accepted. I also felt like she was the protector of those parts, the spokesperson for them, and with that she made sure that I also treated those parts without judgement and shame. It perhaps sounds odd, but Katarina helps your different parts come back home to each other, and I believe it is this process people talk about when they speak of integrating shadow sides.
What especially made Katarina feel so safe for me, is that she does not take her role and responsibility lightly. She gives you her undivided presence and is with you every step of the way. Before, during and after. This experience with Katarina was one of the most beautiful experiences in my life and if you at all feel called to dive deeper in to your inner world and connect with different parts of yourself, I highly recommend Katarina as the person to join and guide you on that journey.”

“As someone new to therapy, I had my reservations and uncertainties, but you managed to gain my trust almost immediately. Your thoughtful questions have made me explore corners of my mind and heart I'd never done before, allowing me to better understand my feelings and motivations. What truly sets you apart, though, is the unique way you guide me through self-discovery. Your skill in making me reflect on my thoughts and emotions, the exercises you provide, and your art of posing key questions, have been very imporant in my personal growth. Your understanding of the interconnectedness between our sexual selves and other aspects of life is truly remarkable. I really appreciate your ability to simplify complex topics and helping me understand areas of life that are often difficult to explore. Your guidance is educating me, and empowering me to live more authentically, fully embracing the energy that resides within all of us.”

“Katarina is one of the most warm and easily approachable persons. She sincerely wants to make you feel better about yourself and your sexuality. She asked just the right questions. Concrete tasks after each session helped me a lot since I’m not always the best person to achieve the goals I set to myself. ”

“Katarina created a space for curiosity and intimate reflection in our individual session. Her line of friendly questioning helped me deeper examine my desires and how my relationship with self informs my connections with others. I recommend her expertise to anyone interested in deepening their understanding of intimacy and connection.”
