My true passion is connecting couples who have lost one another in the heaviness and chaos of life. As a provider trained in 4 different fields of mental and sexual health, I excel in healing the complexities of female low libido. As a Certified Integrative Medicine Specialist for Mental Health, I offer evidence-based holistic and nutritive approaches to mental health disorders like ADHD, PTSD, Cyclic Mood, Depression, Anxiety, PMDD and Postpartum Psychosis / Anxiety / Depression. Being LCMFT licensed in MD, VA, HI, FL allows me to provide in-person sessions in Oahu, Hawaii and virtual sessions to all 4 states! Clinical Coaching is offered in other states. ** We offer all-Inclusive Couples Intimacy Retreats + Women's Wellness Retreats on the beaches of Stuart, FL and Haleiwa, HI throughout 2025. Reach out to inquire about availability and pricing. Communication, contracting, sexual satisfaction and compatibility are also a professional interest of mine, seeing as intimacy often intersects with relational difficulties. I excel in supporting advanced and complex relational systems with a holistic approach, which include ENM systems. Clients often seek EMDR for trauma healing, which includes relationship betrayals, such as infidelity. Get scheduled in for your free call and let's make a plan to get you to a place of joy.

My expertise interweaves sexual optimization through hormone biohacking, energy theory in relationships, and breathwork activation of libido while encouraging partners to express core-needs with a goal of partner unification. As a sound healing enthusiast, pilates practitioner, and certified PFilates instructor for pelvic floor conditioning, I successfully rehabilitate pelvic floor clients from around the world through live coaching. As a clinician, I can appreciate that my personal history with trauma, attachment interference, epigenetic disorders, and mind-body disconnection has all culminated into expertise and deep empathy which allows me to be the top provider that my clients deserve.

Dr. Stephanie Bathurst Practice Description
I’m Dr. Stephanie Bathurst, Clinical Sexologist, Relationship Therapist, Certified Integrative Mental health Specialist, PFilates Instructor & EMDR Trauma Recovery Therapist. use communication and intimacy to create fulfilling relationships. Particularly, I connect with romantic partners who have finally reached their limit of tolerance for the way life has demanded self-sacrifice. I am an expertly-trained, deeply-empathetic clinical guide on your life journey towards a more connected Self and more fulfilling Relationship. I own a private practice, Bathurst Couples and Sex Therapy, located in Oahu, HI and listened in the states of HI, VA, MD and FL as a Marriage and Family Therapist.I’m also a Board Certified Clinical Sexologist in the US. I integrate an integrative approach of holistic and traditional therapies in my work with individuals and relationships to treat clients with mood disorders, sexual difficulties and relationship instability that impair their quality of life and quality of relationship. I help clients embrace what it means to be healthy, connected and sexual with themselves and their partners. I also offer education on herbal sourcing and supplementation as a conjunctive wellness treatment. When I was an undergraduate student, I travelled to Honduras with a group of students. We volunteered to build infrastructure for the local community and orphanages. I can vividly recall walking into a room of young children aching for human affection from touch starvation. I felt their longing viscerally... at a core depth of human connection that is almost inexplicable. We do what we do in hopes that less people feel that painful longing for connection in this world. At the end of the day, we are all human and every single human is built to experience affectionate touch, to feel loved and to desire a sense of belonging with others.  Communication, contracting, sexual satisfaction and compatibility are also a professional interest of mine, seeing as intimacy often intersects with relational difficulties. I excel in supporting advanced and complex relational systems with a holistic approach, which include ENM systems. Clients often seek EMDR with me for trauma healing. Specialties in 5 different health fields promises that I am equipped to support imbalance your relationship growth even if we find out a core issue or blockage during the retreat. Whether we discover hormonal imbalance, pelvic floor dysfunction, unmanaged addiction or attachment, unprocessed trauma, sexual incompatibility, untreated resentment… you’re with the right provider. Can you imagine paying for and flying out to a couples retreat and then discovering the core blockages but your coach has no idea how to fix it?? Worst case scenario. Don’t worry, you’re with the best After my 15 years in the couples therapy space, I mindfully teased out the pace, frequency and content of couples therapy that energizes and connects relationships long-term. I am an expert of relationship repair, sex counseling and somatics for nervous system regulation and pelvic floor health… because all of these combined into 1 process is was gets YOU, the client, sustainable results and quality intimacy. Without any of them being attended to, there’s a hole in your reconnection strategy that critical energy seeps out, building distance, resentment and mental health heaviness overtime. Now is YOUR time to enjoy life, love and togetherness. We know that this is a big investment and choosing the right-fit provider for your journey is important.
