Sex Therapy
Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
One of the most ineffably upsetting and frustrating situations in relationships can be in the bedroom. Sex brings us to a new part of ourselves, which we don’t often fully understand or recognize. This uncanny feeling of confusion can be compounded when we don’t recognize our own partner’s sexual selves either. We might feel unseen, misunderstood, or uncared for. Often, problems in the bedroom represent and symbolize bigger problems that arise in the rest of the relationship. For example, you might have trouble asserting your desires with your partner in general, but in the bedroom it feels doubly intolerable to have your needs go unrecognized. Or you might feel your relationship lacks clear communication, and in the bedroom this often ends in a fight or utter hurt and confusion. By and by these common problems can lead to less and less frequent sex, which takes a toll on the relationship as a whole.
Please don’t continue to wait. You are not alone. Sexual intimacy difficulties are ubiquitous. All it takes is a little curiosity and a trained therapist to guide you to a new space of mutual desire in your partnership.

Sex Therapy
Allen Shamon
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I work with individuals and couples to address a wide range of sexual concerns and dysfunctions. This may involve exploring factors contributing to sexual difficulties, identifying cognitive, emotional, and behavioral patterns that may be maintaining the issue, and developing tailored treatment plans to address the root causes of the concern. I employ evidence-based interventions such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based techniques, sensate focus exercises, and communication skills training to help clients overcome sexual challenges and enhance sexual satisfaction.

Sex Therapy
Vincent Espinoza
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I love to talk about sex! Sex is a beautiful thing and we all should be having as much of as we want without feeling ashamed, guilty or worried about expressing our internal truth regarding our sexual identities, sexual practices, and our sexual health and functioning in our relationships. I enjoy helping clients to explore their sexuality in a safe and affirming environment that provides unconditional positive regard, empathy, curiosity and meaningful growth.

Sex Therapy
Couples Counseling Center
Counselor/Therapist, Ph.D., LPC
Sex can be a source of joy, connection, and play. Or a source of frustration, confusion, and pain. Whether you’re dealing with mismatched desire, lack of intimacy, sexual dysfunction, or the impact of trauma, you’re not alone. I help couples talk about sex in a safe, open way and rebuild a physical connection that feels good for both of you. Intimacy is worth working on.

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.
