Sex Therapy therapists in Lawrence, Kansas KS
Melanie Bettes
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC, Coach
Many people are involved in kink, and many therapists are uncomfortable with it, or simply haven't tried to understand it. Often they will not talk about sex at all in a session, when it can be such a huge part of our life and the way we interact with our partners. This leaves some relationships within the kink umbrella vulnerable and without support from qualified therapists.
Many therapists simply misunderstand the dynamics involved. Some think it's purely a response to trauma. Some think even worse. But studies don't support the common misperceptions around kink. I follow Justin Lehmiller, one of the current sex researchers and educators, who is one in a long line of researchers and therapists like Kinsey, Shere Hite, Master's & Johnson, Dr Sue Johanssen, and Dr Ruth.

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.
