Piyola Derbarseghian- Sex & Relationship Therapist
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA, AMFT
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).

Elnaz Mayeh (WellBeCounseling)
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT, EMDR Trained
As a sexologist, I help individuals and couples navigate the complexities of intimacy, desire, and connection. Whether you’re struggling with desire discrepancies, sexual dysfunctions, or just wanting to deepen your sexual self-understanding, I create a safe, shame-free space to talk about what most people find hard to say out loud. I believe the biggest sexual organ is the brain, so much of sexual health starts with how we think, feel, and communicate. Together, we’ll work toward rebuilding confidence, pleasure, and authentic connection because great sex starts with self-awareness and emotional safety.

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.

Corrie Blissit
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT#150479
Ropes, and whips, and chains...oh my! No matter your sexual preferences, most of us grew up in a culture where our sexuality was shamed. As adults, we may feel embarrassed or "wrong" for even having sexual desires. Discovering who you are sexually, comes with its own unique anxieties and challenges. Sex is complex; it can be an ecstatic source of joy and pleasure and it can also be a source of boredom, pain, and heartache. A lack of education around sex may prevent you from understanding how your body experiences pleasure. It takes courage to explore your likes, dislikes, and fantasies. There are also relational risks that come with communicating our preferences. How will our wishes be received? Will we be rejected or accepted? Beyond knowing how you like to express yourself sexually, there are also deeper questions we might ask, like, what is the meaning and role of sex in your life? Why do you have sex? How does trust, safety, and security influence your sex life? Therapy is place you can explore these questions, develop more intimacy with yourself, and work through any uncomfortable or confusing feelings surrounding sex. Call or email me today to schedule a free 20-minute consultation.
