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.

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.)

Sex therapy helps individuals better understand their needs and communicate those needs to partners.

Kate Winderman
Psychologist, Ph.D., LP
Our culture has taught us that talking about sex can be a scary, shameful, and at times embarrassing process. Yet at the same time, talking about sex is often the first (and perhaps most important) step towards healing sexual issues. I aim to create a safe and judgment free space to help you process through sexual concerns and move towards becoming the sexual person you hope to become. My sex therapy practice is largely centered around queer folks and woman-identified folks as they navigate a host of sexual issues including but not limited to issues with desire, self-esteem issues, navigating the impact of sexual or religious trauma, relationship issues, or just helping you come into to yourself as a sexual person.

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.
