Vielka brings a rare combination of professional skill, emotional warmth, and practical groundedness to her work as a sex therapist. Her ability to make clients feel respected and understood - even in deeply vulnerable areas - make her a wonderful referral source for clients wanting to address intimacy issues.
It's not easy to find a sex therapist and especially one that has the level of training and interest in the work that Vielka has. On top of that, she is warm, caring and nonjudgmental. I think a lot of people would feel comfortable working with her on such sensitive issues.
Vielka is an exceptional sex therapist—warm, knowledgeable, and deeply skilled. She brings compassion and clarity to sensitive topics like low libido and intimacy issues, helping clients feel safe, understood, and empowered. Her aliveness is inspiring. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking support for intimacy and deeper connection with their partner.
Vielka’s card game was fun. Works great if you want to “break the ice” with your partner. The instructions are clear and easy to follow. You can skip cards but you’ll end up wanting to finish the whole deck! You can tell the game was carefully crafted by a professional by the way the different categories are represented.
I have known Vielka Kano for well over ten years now as a colleague and she is always my go to person for consultation. For years I have seen Vielka fully immerse herself in the field of sex therapy and expand her level of expertise far beyond the basic knowledge of other therapists. After consulting Vielka I have been able to return to my own clients with additional information and a different approach which has yielded positive results. Vielka is easy going, charismatic, and most of all genuine. I truly believe her personality is her biggest asset because discussing issues regarding sex can be difficult. Vielka has a wonderful ability to create lightness and ease in the room which is needed to address these topics.
As a seasoned sex/ couples therapist, Vielka integrates tantra, somatic practices, and creative expressions and empowers her clients with tools to deepen the healing experience. I highly recommend Vielka if you are looking for embodied transformation!
Vielka is extremely professional, knowledgable and easy to talk. We love her card game that helped us have more fun and ignited new passion and connection to our lives. We’ve been able to connect at a deeper level and explore things about one another we hadn’t before. Highly recommend!
I had the pleasure of getting to know Vielka and her practice. We had in-depth conversations about her background and her journey into this type of therapy. She had such a wealth of knowledge in so many areas revolving around the very common problems so many individuals have around desire, intimacy, interpersonal relationship problems, and of course individual struggles. I am one who researches doctors and therapists thoroughly to ensure I'm aligning with the right healers whether to learn from them or to receive guidance from them. I can say Vielka is someone I can and have recommended to individuals for guidance. Her openness and soft demeanor makes it easier for individuals to share their vulnerabilities. If you are looking for any sort of help, I would recommend you to at least give her a call. We all deserve to feel our best as individuals and with our partners otherwise, what's it all about?
Vielka is a knowledgable, skilled sex therapist who creates a warm and welcoming space for all of her clients. It has been such a pleasure to work with her as a colleague. If you're looking for a couple's therapist - she's a fantastic choice!
