Let’s Talk About Sex (For Real, This Time)
If you're here, chances are you're looking for answers.
Maybe you’re wondering why your sex life doesn’t feel the way it used to. Maybe intimacy feels more like a chore than a connection. Or maybe you’ve been silently struggling with pain, frustration, or shame that you’ve never quite known how to address.
First things first: you are not broken. You are not alone. And yes, we can absolutely talk about it.
About Dr. Patty
I’m Dr. Patty Jalomo, but you can just call me Patty. I’ve spent over 30 years in women’s health, specializing in the very topics that most people feel too uncomfortable to bring up—even with their doctor. I’m a Women’s Health and Family Nurse Practitioner, a trained pelvic floor therapist, and a certified sexuality counselor. That means I approach sexual health from every angle—physical, emotional, and relational—because intimacy is never just about sex. It’s about connection, communication, pleasure, and feeling at home in your body.
Why I Do This Work
For decades, women’s sexual health has been dismissed, overlooked, or treated as an afterthought. We’ve been conditioned to believe that pain is normal, that pleasure is secondary, and that desire is supposed to fade with age. I refuse to accept that.
I became a certified sexuality counselor through AASECT because I knew my patients needed more than quick-fix medical treatments. They needed real conversations, real answers, and real solutions. As a pelvic floor therapist, I’ve treated women with pain during intercourse, incontinence, and pelvic organ prolapse. As a nurse practitioner, I’ve prescribed hormone therapies and medications to help with libido, vaginal health, and sexual function. And as a sexuality counselor, I help women untangle the deeper layers of intimacy—past trauma, body confidence, cultural shame, relationship struggles, and more.
It’s not uncommon for me to meet clients at an adult toy store to help them pick out their first vibrator. I’ve sat with women in their 60s and 70s who are finally ready to explore their pleasure—many for the first time in their lives. And I’ve held space for women carrying decades-old trauma they’ve never spoken about before.
Sexual health isn’t just about function. It’s about freedom—to explore, to enjoy, to connect, and to take ownership of your body and pleasure without shame.

Let’s Change the Conversation
Growing up in a strict Catholic household with five sisters and one brother, I learned early on that certain topics were off-limits. But I’ve always questioned the “rules” about what’s considered acceptable, what’s taboo, and why we still let outdated beliefs dictate how we feel about our own bodies.
Now, I help others do the same.
Whether you’re dealing with pain, loss of desire, hormonal shifts, or simply feel disconnected from your body and partner, you deserve a space where you can ask the hard questions—and actually get answers. No judgment, no awkwardness, just science-backed, real-world solutions tailored to you.
MY WORK FOCUSES ON HELPING YOU:
Understand and navigate changes in your sexual health, whether due to aging, hormones, medical conditions, or life transitions.
Overcome intimacy struggles, whether you're dealing with mismatched libidos, communication issues, or confidence barriers.
Learn practical, science-backed techniques to improve pleasure, connection, and overall well-being.
Feel seen, supported, and validated in a safe, judgment-free space.
You Deserve a Thriving, Fulfilling Intimate Life
No matter where you are in your journey, you don’t have to do this alone. My goal is to help you break free from shame, gain clarity, and find solutions that actually work for you.
If you’re ready to start the conversation, I’m here. Let’s take the next step together.
