Sex Therapy
Dr. Evelyn Comber
Psychologist, L.C.P.C., Ph.D., M.A., M.P.C., M.H.S., B.G.S.
I chose this specialty because KINK wasn't an option available to choose. And sex therapy came closest. I specialize in helping the KINK population. If you are involved in BDSM/ds, consensual non-monogamy, poly or other alternate sexualities - I can help with your various issues without making it all about your particular KINK. Give me a call.

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.

Sex Therapy
Aaliyah Gilbert
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSW
Concerns around intimacy and sexuality can feel deeply personal and are often difficult to talk about, even in close relationships. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore topics such as sexual confidence, desire, communication, body image, and emotional or physical connection. In our work together, we look at both individual and relational factors that may be impacting intimacy while building language and tools to support healthier, more fulfilling experiences. My goal is to help you feel more comfortable, informed, and connected to yourself and your partner, while reducing shame and increasing openness around sexuality.

Sex Therapy
Polaris Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Sexual addiction is not simply about needing sex all of the time. It is a serious addiction that affects everyone close to you. Sexual compulsion, like all addictions, starts out as an escape from another problem you have in your life. As your addiction escalates, so does your risky behavior. You carry out the acts of your addiction without care of others finding out what is going on.
Types of Sexual Addiction include:
Repeated affairs
Pornography
Internet/Phone sex
Multiple partners
Compulsive masturbation
Unsafe sex
Use of prostitutes
Sexual paraphilias/unusual sexual fetishes
Sexual addiction or sexual compulsion is different from many other addictions in that the end goal of therapy is not for you to abstain from sexual activity, but to have a healthy and normal sex life.
