Grow into the relationship you’ve always wanted…
The podcast that can help you create the deeply connected and passionate relationship you’ve always dreamed of…
Jackie Aston, LCSW-C
I’m a licensed psychotherapist, coach, and co-host of the Differentiated Love & Sex podcast focused on relationships, intimacy, and connection. I work with individuals, couples, and working professionals who want to strengthen their relationships—whether that means improving communication, navigating conflict, or deepening emotional and physical intimacy.
My approach is grounded in differentiation, helping clients build a stronger sense of self while staying meaningfully connected to others. I believe that growth in relationships often comes from learning how to tolerate discomfort, communicate more honestly, and show up more fully.
If you’re looking for support in your relationship—with a partner or within yourself—I invite you to reach out. Therapy and coaching can be a powerful place to create lasting change!

As a host of the Differentiated Love & Sex podcast,
Emotional Intimacy and Passionate Sex
Differentiation-based therapy focuses on helping each partner develop a stronger sense of self while staying emotionally connected in the relationship. Instead of avoiding conflict or relying on a partner for reassurance, couples learn how to tolerate discomfort, communicate more honestly, and stay grounded during difficult moments. This often leads to deeper emotional intimacy, because both partners can show up more authentically without fear of losing themselves. Over time, this also enhances sexual intimacy—desire tends to grow when there is both closeness and a sense of separateness, allowing partners to experience more genuine connection, curiosity, and aliveness in their relationship.
Even couples facing infidelity, ongoing conflict, emotional disconnection, or low passion can experience meaningful healing through this approach. While the work can be challenging, many couples find that by doing this deeper work, they are able to rebuild trust, reconnect emotionally and physically, and create a relationship that feels more secure, vibrant, and fulfilling than before.
If you’re ready to begin this work and create a stronger, more connected relationship, reach out to schedule a free 15 minute consultation call with Jackie or Catherine.
