About the Services
People with disabilities are just that: people. We all desire love, relationships, intimacy, and acceptance, but it can be harder for people with disabilities to navigate the nuances that come along with those partnerships. GET SAFE is comfortable with uncomfortable conversations because the uncomfortable conversations are often the most important ones. We help our clients understand their bodies, preferences, relationships, and how to express themselves to be the healthiest and safest version of themselves.
