Erica Hart
Psychologist, PhD in Clinical Psychology
Clients (individuals and couples) experiencing sexual satisfaction issues, dysfunction, trauma reactions and low desire often seek my support. Through understanding relational and sexual histories, past experiences, cultural and gender-related narratives, I can help clients understand how their current issues arose. I work using attachment theory, relational and psychodynamic therapeutic approaches and sensate-focused exercises.

XaHara A. MeGod
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, R-DMT, CPT
Sexual concerns—low desire, pain, shame, trauma, or performance anxiety—are often held in the body and in silence. I offer a safe, non-judgmental space to explore sexuality as part of your whole self. My body-based, culturally centered approach honors your values, identity, and history, helping you move toward pleasure, connection, and sexual well-being.

Paula Kirsch
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CST
Sex therapy is just therapy — about one of the most human parts of being alive. I work with concerns about desire, arousal, pain, orgasm, and intimacy in a way that is direct, nonjudgmental, and clinically grounded. Nothing you bring here will shock me. We will talk about it plainly, and we will actually work on it.

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.
