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.

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. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Sex therapy addresses concerns related to desire, arousal, intimacy, and sexual self-expression within the broader context of emotional and relational life. My work integrates psychoanalytic methods, clinical sexology, hypnosis, and somatic awareness to explore the deeper meanings beneath sexual struggles. Together, we work toward a more coherent, embodied, and authentic relationship with desire and intimacy.

Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
One of the most ineffably upsetting and frustrating situations in relationships can be in the bedroom. Sex brings us to a new part of ourselves, which we don’t often fully understand or recognize. This uncanny feeling of confusion can be compounded when we don’t recognize our own partner’s sexual selves either. We might feel unseen, misunderstood, or uncared for. Often, problems in the bedroom represent and symbolize bigger problems that arise in the rest of the relationship. For example, you might have trouble asserting your desires with your partner in general, but in the bedroom it feels doubly intolerable to have your needs go unrecognized. Or you might feel your relationship lacks clear communication, and in the bedroom this often ends in a fight or utter hurt and confusion. By and by these common problems can lead to less and less frequent sex, which takes a toll on the relationship as a whole.
Please don’t continue to wait. You are not alone. Sexual intimacy difficulties are ubiquitous. All it takes is a little curiosity and a trained therapist to guide you to a new space of mutual desire in your partnership.
