Sheena K. Glover
Psychologist, PsyD
Changes in sexual desire can be alarming for couples, especially when struggling with issues such as low libido and difficulty communicating about sexual desires. This can leave them feeling lonely and concerned about the future of their relationship. Despite efforts to find solutions through various resources, many find themselves at an impasse, leading to communication breakdowns and relationship strain. At Intimacy in Progress, we foster a sex-positive environment and encourage open conversations about sexual experiences within each couple. Through empathetic therapy, we help couples navigate intimacy issues, communication barriers, and sexual challenges, empowering them to strengthen their connection and rediscover fulfillment in their relationship.

Utah Center for Evidence Based Treatment
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Our Sex, Pleasure, Romance, and Connection (SPRC) Consult Program is dedicated to providing evidence-based treatment for individuals and couples dealing with concerns related to relationships, intimacy, and sexuality. Unlike generic therapy, our program is tailored to address the unique goals, challenges, and patterns specific to each couple's circumstances. We understand the significance of addressing sexuality and sexual health, which is often overlooked in traditional treatments. As part of our SPRC program, we are committed to providing holistic and integrative care, recognizing the intricate dynamics of trauma and its impact on intimate aspects of life. Our program aims to empower clinicians to skillfully and compassionately navigate the complex intersections of trauma and sexual wellness.
What to Expect
We begin with a multi-session in-depth assessment process to thoroughly examine concerns and obstacles related to relationship, intimacy, and sexual satisfaction. Based on the assessment data and therapy goals, we formulate personalized treatment plans to ensure the most comprehensive care specific to the client and/or relationship. Similar to our other clinical programs, we collect outcome data for each couple and/or individual to ensure that treatment goals are being met.
What We Treat
Furthermore, our sex therapy-informed clinicians have received formal, specialized training in the latest evidence-based treatments for couples, such as The Gottman Method, Integrative Behavioral Couples Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Conjoint Therapy for PTSD.
Our clinicians are trained to address the following concerns:
Relationship difficulties
Relationship recovery after an affair/betrayal
Relationship transitions (e.g., marriage, divorce, separation)
Enhancing intimacy and couples satisfaction
Supporting a loved one through a difficult period
Improved communication and conflict resolution skills
Increased sexual wellness and satisfaction
