Sexual challenges often intersect with developmental experiences, attachment injuries, cultural messages, or trauma. I integrate IFS, attachment theory, experiential techniques, somatics and EFT to address both the emotional and relational dimensions of intimacy.

Phillip McCulley
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CSAT
I provide sex therapy for individuals and couples who want to improve intimacy, desire, communication, and overall sexual satisfaction. I have training in sex therapy, including education informed by Barry McCarthy’s work, which emphasizes healthy, pleasure focused sexuality rather than performance or pressure. My approach centers on helping people develop a more confident, connected, and realistic relationship with sex.
In therapy, we work to understand how stress, anxiety, shame, past experiences, medical concerns, or relationship dynamics may be affecting your sex life. This may include support with sexual dysfunction, desire differences, intimacy concerns, or difficulties communicating about sex. I help clients move away from goal driven or fear based sexual patterns and toward experiences that feel more relaxed, mutual, and fulfilling.
I also offer affirming sex therapy for LGBTQ individuals and couples, as well as those in non traditional or non monogamous relationships. Therapy provides a space to explore sexuality openly and respectfully, without judgment or assumptions, so that your sexual expression aligns with your values, comfort, and sense of connection.

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.

Laura Anderson LPCC, Eff Shame Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Sex and gender are areas where too many therapists either flinch or overreach — avoiding the topic entirely or making it the center of everything when you're telling them it isn't. I get it either way. I work from a shame-free, sex-positive, trauma-informed perspective with whatever you're navigating — sexual concerns, identity, intimacy, desire, or simply needing a therapist who won't make things weird. I am completing certification in sexuality therapy and bring both clinical training and genuine openness to this work. Whatever you've been afraid to say out loud — this is a safe place to say it.

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.

LaTianna Williams, Therapy, Sexology, and Holistic Tantra
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CTRS, ABS
Sexuality, Pleasure & Intimacy: If you’re struggling with low desire, difficulty receiving pleasure, intimacy challenges, sexual shame, relationship patterns that keep repeating, body disconnection, or the lingering effects of past experiences, these issues can leave you feeling frustrated, disconnected, and unfulfilled.
As a sex therapist, sexologist, and tantra practitioner, I help individuals and couples understand the root causes of these challenges and create meaningful, lasting change. Drawing from psychology, sexual wellness education, and embodied practices, I offer a supportive and nonjudgmental space where you can explore your concerns and reconnect with yourself.
Together, we cultivate greater self-awareness, confidence, pleasure, intimacy, and authentic expression so that you can experience deeper connection in your relationships and a more vibrant relationship with your own body, sexuality, and desires.

Jamie Fortin
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist
I can support you to be bold enough to get the intimacy that you want in a healthy way. I also support creative constellations of loving partnerships because not all romantic or intimate relationships are about “that one true love.” If you find yourself exploring creative intimacy and want to do that openly, safely, and with integrity, I will support you.

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.
