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.

Waterbury is a post-industrial Connecticut city historically known as the 'Brass City' for its dominant role in American brass and clock manufacturing industries, which have largely departed, leaving behind significant economic challenges and one of the higher poverty rates in a state that ranks among the nation's wealthiest. The city has a large Puerto Rican population, and Spanish-language therapy is an essential component of the mental health landscape alongside services for communities from across Latin America and more recently Africa. Saint Mary's Hospital and Waterbury Hospital provide behavioral health services, and community health centers serve the significant Medicaid and uninsured population. Common therapy concerns include poverty-related stress, immigration and diaspora identity, substance use (Waterbury has been significantly affected by opioids), depression, anxiety, and the compounding challenges of accessing mental health care in a struggling city still working to define itself beyond its industrial past.
