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.

Erica Hart
Psychologist, PhD in Clinical Psychology
Clients (individuals and couples) experiencing sexual satisfaction issues, dysfunction, trauma reactions and low desire often seek my support. Through understanding relational and sexual histories, past experiences, cultural and gender-related narratives, I can help clients understand how their current issues arose. I work using attachment theory, relational and psychodynamic therapeutic approaches and sensate-focused exercises.

Marriage and Family Therapist, PHD, MSSW, LMFT (KY/IN) LSCW (IN), ACS, CLC, CMC
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.

Jacob Hamlin
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.Ed., LMFT, CST
As an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist, I provide a private and thoughtful space for individuals and couples to address sexual concerns with care and directness. I work with issues such as desire differences, erectile difficulties, premature ejaculation, sexual anxiety, shame, intimacy avoidance, communication about sex, pornography-related concerns, and the emotional impact of sexual disconnection. Sex therapy is not about judging your sexuality or reducing it to mechanics. It is about understanding how desire, body, emotion, attachment, identity, values, and relationship patterns come together, and helping you move toward a healthier and more integrated sexual life.

Lexington sits at the center of Kentucky's Bluegrass region with a character distinct from Louisville — the University of Kentucky drives a significant student and young professional population alongside a traditional agricultural and equestrian community. The city's proximity to Appalachia means therapists frequently encounter the mental health effects of the region's opioid crisis, intergenerational poverty, and community grief tied to economic decline. UK HealthCare — the University of Kentucky's academic medical system — provides institutional mental health resources, with private practices concentrated in Chevy Chase, Beaumont, and the Hamburg area. Lexington's horse industry also supports a niche clientele of equestrian athletes and industry professionals navigating performance pressure and career identity.
