Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In sex therapy, I provide support to individuals or couples facing challenges in their sexual lives. This involves creating a safe and non-judgmental space to explore concerns such as desire discrepancy, erectile dysfunction, arousal difficulties, or communication issues. Through therapy sessions, we work on understanding underlying factors, improving communication and intimacy, and developing strategies to address specific concerns. The goal is to enhance sexual satisfaction and overall relationship well-being.

Gemstone Wellness, Inc.
Psychologist, PsyD, LCPC, LCSW, LPC
At Gemstone Wellness, sex therapy is approached as more than addressing “problems”—it is a space to understand your relationship with intimacy, desire, and connection in a deeper, more integrated way. We recognize that sexuality is shaped by your history, your body, your identity, and the messages you’ve received over time. You are not treated as broken, but as someone whose experiences make sense in context.
Our work is trauma-informed, affirming, and paced with care. Clients often come in navigating desire discrepancies, shame, disconnection, pain, or the impact of past experiences. Rather than rushing to solutions, we explore the emotional and relational roots—how your nervous system, past relationships, and identity have shaped your experience of intimacy.
We support both individuals and couples, with attention to communication, safety, pleasure, and authenticity. Our approach is explicitly LGBTQIA+ affirming and inclusive of diverse identities, relationship structures, and expressions of sexuality.
Sessions are collaborative, warm, and non-judgmental. There is space to name what hasn’t been spoken, to move at your own pace, and to build a relationship with your sexuality that feels grounded, connected, and genuinely your own.
