Sex therapy is a form of talk therapy where we focus on the individual’s and/or couples issues with sex and sexuality. It can be based on functional issues such as erectile dysfunction, rapid ejaculation, inorgasmia, low desire, or more about a person’s sexuality or gender identity.

Sex Therapy
Bold Expressions Therapy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Speaking openly about sexual habits, desires, and relationships can be awkward for patients. However, I believe that open dialogue about these topics are important and normal in the therapeutic space. I do my best to make these topics as painless and natural to speak about as possible. Having a graduate certificate in LGBT Health and Policy guides many of my interventions and thoughts about sex and relationships. All I ask is that my patients come with open minds and a willingness to discuss these sometimes challenging topics. We live in a culture that is deeply oppressed around topics of sex, desires, and fetishes. It is my goal to change this by allowing patients to come as they are and speak openly to me about their feelings. Open relationships, polyamory, and ethical non-monogamy have become hot-button topics, but can be deeply misunderstood, and are often viewed as taboo. I understand that not all relationships look the same, and that not all people want the same things. Families look different, and that is something to be celebrated. I am actively staying abreast of the most current research on these topics so that I can help you to navigate their stigma while maintaining the happy, healthy bonds you have with your partners.

Sex Therapy
Dr. Heidi Anderson Sauder
Psychologist, PhD, CGT, CST
Sex therapy provides a supportive, nonjudgmental space to explore concerns related to sexuality, intimacy, relationships, and just being a sexual person. Therapy may address challenges such as desire discrepancies, communication around intimacy, sexual anxiety, body image concerns, pain during sex, life transitions, identity exploration, or the impact of stress and past experiences on intimacy. Grounded in education, emotional awareness, and evidence-based therapeutic approaches, sessions are tailored to each couple’s unique values, goals, and experiences. Sex therapy affirms that sexuality is a meaningful part of overall well-being and supports clients in developing greater confidence, connection, communication, and comfort within themselves and their relationships.

Rising Phoenix Therapy - Dempsey Young, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
I do some sex therapy typically with my couples that get stuck in a rut and losing some of the sexy joy of sexual intimacy. But I also help individuals work through issues around sex to whether it be performance anxiety, difficulties with sex drive, exploring sexuality, or really anything else in this realm.
