Sex Therapy
Best Therapies, Inc.
Therapist
The majority of therapists receive little to no training on talking about sexuality issues. A lot of couples come in to therapy to talk about their sex life, and spend months on fighting more fairly. Obviously, conflict and connection are two components to address, but sometimes folks get along great and have lost their sexual connection and some folks who fight all the time have a great sex life. Individuals often times want to share their difficulty, weird, or simply amazing sexual encounters with their therapist so they can process the experiences, but feel stifled or embarrassed to bring it up with a therapist who has never seemed open or interested. Well, screw that. (Pun intended.) (We’re sorry.)

Dr. Susan L. Waldo
Psychologist, PhD
Sex Therapy is necessary sub-specialty for anyone who works with couples because often when couples struggle, one of the areas of struggle is sex. I provide new and innovative strategies in conducting sex therapy that focuses on the needs and wants of both partners in the relationship. I also help couples for whom traditional sex is no longer possible due to illness or medications, to find sensual, sexy ways to connect intimately even though intercourse is no longer possible.
