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
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.
