Sex Therapy
What is Sex Therapy?
Sex therapy is a specialized form of counseling that helps individuals and couples address concerns around intimacy, desire, sexual functioning, and identity. It provides a safe, non-judgmental space to talk openly about topics that may feel difficult to discuss elsewhere. Whether struggles come from physical challenges, past trauma, relationship dynamics, or cultural/religious messages, sex therapy can help you find clarity, healing, and confidence in your sexual self.
How Sex Therapy Helps
Sexual concerns are more common than most people realize, and they can affect not only intimacy but also self-esteem, connection, and overall well-being. Some of the issues sex therapy can address include:
Low or mismatched desire
Difficulty with arousal or orgasm
Erectile or ejaculatory concerns
Pain during sex
Impact of trauma or shame on intimacy
Compulsive or problematic sexual behaviors
Navigating non-monogamy, polyamory, or kink
Rebuilding intimacy after betrayal or conflict
In sex therapy, we work collaboratively to identify what’s getting in the way of the fulfilling sexual and relational life you want. Together, we’ll explore practical strategies, emotional blocks, and new perspectives to help you reconnect with your body and your partner(s).
What to Expect in Sex Therapy
Sex therapy is not about “fixing” you—it’s about deepening understanding, building communication skills, and finding new ways to connect. In sessions, you can expect to:
Share your experiences and concerns at your own pace.
Explore the emotional, relational, and physiological aspects of sexual well-being.
Learn tools to reduce anxiety and improve communication around sex.
Develop a healthier, more compassionate relationship with your sexuality.
All therapy is talk-based; there is no physical or sexual contact in sessions.
Sex therapy can be helpful for:
Individuals struggling with sexual shame, guilt, or trauma
Couples navigating intimacy challenges or desire differences
LGBTQ+ clients exploring identity and expression
People in non-monogamous or kinky relationships seeking affirming support
Anyone who wants to feel more connected, confident, and empowered in their sexual life
