Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC, ACS, CST
Sex therapy provides a safe, open space to explore concerns related to desire, intimacy, performance, or identity. Whether you're facing challenges individually or as a couple, I help clients address shame, improve communication, and foster deeper connection and satisfaction—always with respect, compassion, and a holistic understanding of sexuality.

Kelley Hopkins-Alvarez
Licensed Professional Counselor, Couples Therapy, Affair & Betrayal Recovery, Certified Sex Therapy, Certified Discernment Counselor
As an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist, I offer specialized Sex Therapy exclusively in-person at my Ridgefield, Connecticut office. Many couples travel to my office because they value working face-to-face with a therapist whose practice is devoted exclusively to couples.
I help partners understand how emotional connection, attachment, trust, intimacy, sex influence one another. Sexual concerns are rarely isolated; difficulty communicating about sex, differences in desire, diminished intimacy, sexual pain, shame, perimenopause, menopause, andropause, resentment, rejection, and betrayal may reflect deeper patterns within the relationship. Even if some partners are no longer seeking to restore intimacy in their current relationship, they often find that my sex therapy background provides valuable insight as they consider their relationship history and what comes next. Sex Therapy in my office is talk therapy and never involves any physical contact between therapist and clients.

Dr. Brittany Jacobson
Psychologist, PhD, CST
I am a certified sex therapist, offering both individual and couples therapy. Sexual concerns are more common than people often realize, yet can feel difficult to talk about. I offer a comfortable, nonjudgmental space to explore your experiences, questions, and goals at your own pace. I assist with issues related to sexual desire, arousal, orgasm, overall satisfaction, and pain.

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.
