As a trauma specialist, Quandra Chaffers helps teenagers and adults overcome intimate partner violence and sexual abuse. Quandra is also a kink & poly knowledgeable sex therapist. She specialize in areas of sexless marriages, painful sex, and problematic sexual behaviors. For over 10 years, she has honed her skill set in cutting edge therapies such as Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR) in order to mitigate the effects of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and other mental health issues that result from exposure to trauma. Quandra is a powerhouse sexpert because she attacks the issues of sexual violence as a trifecta—community educator, therapist consultant, and psychotherapist. Before transitioning into private practice, Quandra worked for 3 semesters at Washington University in St. Louis as an Adjunct Professor.
