Sexuality is a vital part of our well-being, yet it’s often the part we feel most alone in. I provide a safe, non-judgmental space to explore concerns like low desire, performance anxiety and issues, pain during sex, out-of-sync libidos, sexual shame, or questions around kink, orientation, or non-monogamy. Whether you're looking to heal, reconnect, or grow, sex therapy can help you cultivate a more fulfilling and authentic sexual self, individually or with a partner(s).

Russell Wilkie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
My experience with sex therapy is this: for most of us, communication is at the core of the major issues. I certainly do look at the biological issues too, but those are actually uncommon. I also work with sexually kinky people that are being marginalized or simply need a venue to talk about something that some people might judge or disagree with. As long as your sexuality is safe, sane and consensual, I can support you, no matter how far "out there" you think you might be.

Allen Shamon
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I work with individuals and couples to address a wide range of sexual concerns and dysfunctions. This may involve exploring factors contributing to sexual difficulties, identifying cognitive, emotional, and behavioral patterns that may be maintaining the issue, and developing tailored treatment plans to address the root causes of the concern. I employ evidence-based interventions such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based techniques, sensate focus exercises, and communication skills training to help clients overcome sexual challenges and enhance sexual satisfaction.

Dr. Ingrid Solano
Psychologist, PhD
Sex therapy is a form of counseling intended to help individuals and couples resolve sexual difficulties, such as performance anxiety or relationship problems. I support couples in restoring trust, rebuilding intimacy, and reigniting healthy, passionate sex. Some choose to attend sessions alone; others bring their partner with them. Session frequency and length usually depend on the client and the type of problem being addressed.
Sexual health is an essential part of overall emotional and physical well-being. But if you’re experiencing a sexual problem, the last thing you probably want to do is talk about it. However, you aren't alone! 43 percent of women and 31 percent of men report some degree of sexual dysfunction.
Sex therapy is a type of psychotherapy that also takes into account possible physical problems. For this reason (among others), sex therapy requires special training. When a couple comes in with a sexual problem, we try to figure out how each of them could be contributing to the issue. We examine what is going on, gradually interpret this in the context of their sexual history/experiences, tease apart cultural/societal influences, and come up with solutions
Sex therapy utilizes a variety of approaches to treat sexual dysfunction. In addition to the techniques outlined by Masters and Johnson, sex therapy includes cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), emotion-based therapy, and couples communication techniques. It’s important to know that sex therapy sessions do not involve any physical contact or sexual activity. I usually assign “homework”—practical activities that clients are expected to complete in the privacy of their own home.

Shauna Farabaugh
Life Coach, Certified Somatic Sex Educator, Board Certified Sexologist, Certified TRE provider
Somatic sex education is a phenomenal modality for addressing sexual concerns, especially sexual confidence, sexual communication, low libido, reliable access to orgasm (or access for the first time), navigating the impact of illness or disability on sexuality, and erectile concerns. It's an embodied education or coaching model, not therapy. You are NOT broken. You CAN learn skills to increase your sexual satisfaction. And as you deepen your awareness of you body, you will discover more pleasure than you thought possible. Ready to take the first step towards more pleasure? Contact me today for your FREE consultation.

Greta Klaber
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ma, LMFT
Sexuality can be a deeply important and vulnerable part of our lives, and yet many people don’t have spaces where they can talk about it openly. I offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space to explore concerns around sex, intimacy, desire, and connection. My approach integrates somatic awareness, parts work, and psychodynamic insight to help clients better understand their internal experiences—whether around boundaries, communication, shame, fantasy, body image, or identity. I see sex therapy as an opportunity for growth, healing, and deeper self-understanding. It can be a powerful pathway toward greater connection with yourself and others, and toward creating a more satisfying and authentic relationship to your own sexuality.
