Sex Therapy
Dr. Sharareh Namjoo
Marriage and Family Therapist, Doctor of Psychology
Sexual concerns can affect confidence, intimacy, relationships, and emotional well-being. Clients may seek support for differences in desire, difficulty communicating needs, performance anxiety, painful past experiences, shame, or changes related to health and life transitions.
I provide a confidential, respectful, and nonjudgmental space for individuals and couples to explore sexuality, intimacy, boundaries, and connection. Together, we work to improve communication, reduce anxiety and shame, and develop a healthier relationship with sexual well-being. When concerns may involve medical factors, I encourage collaboration with appropriate healthcare professionals.

Sex Therapy
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.

Sex Therapy
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.
