Sex Therapists in Worcester, MA

As a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist candidate I specialize in helping men understand and overcome sex addiction, or compulsive sexual behavior. I leverage a tailored curriculum to define the problem/solution, establish identity, outline the addiction cycle and interventions to stop unwanted behavior, defense mechanisms and ultimately move towards sustainability and maintenance. Group sessions are also available.

Listen to your body, follow your heart! When our hearts are wounded through trauma, neglect and deprivation, we lose touch with the heart's power. Depression, anxiety, fear of intimacy, addiction, stuckness may follow. Working through emotional issues at a body level allows for deep, lasting healing

Sex therapy addresses concerns related to desire, arousal, intimacy, and sexual self-expression within the broader context of emotional and relational life. My work integrates psychoanalytic methods, clinical sexology, hypnosis, and somatic awareness to explore the deeper meanings beneath sexual struggles. Together, we work toward a more coherent, embodied, and authentic relationship with desire and intimacy.

I work with adults seeking to explore sexual concerns, intimacy challenges, and relationship dynamics in a safe, affirming space. I help clients address sexual desire, communication around intimacy, body confidence, and navigating sexual identity, preferences, or relationship structures. I offer kink-affirming and poly-friendly therapy and integrate trauma-informed, somatic, and parts-based approaches to support emotional regulation, self-awareness, and deeper connection with oneself and partners. My approach emphasizes consent, curiosity, and empowerment, helping clients develop sexual well-being, intimacy skills, and healthier relationships.

Somatic sex education is a phenomenal modality for addressing sexual concerns, especially sexual confidence, sexual communication, low libido, reliable access to orgasm (or access for the first time), navigating the impact of illness or disability on sexuality, and erectile concerns. It's an embodied education or coaching model, not therapy. You are NOT broken. You CAN learn skills to increase your sexual satisfaction. And as you deepen your awareness of you body, you will discover more pleasure than you thought possible. Ready to take the first step towards more pleasure?

Worcester is one of New England's most diverse cities and home to a cluster of colleges and universities — including Clark University, College of the Holy Cross, Worcester Polytechnic Institute, and UMass Chan Medical School — that together generate significant student mental health demand and a well-developed clinical training ecosystem. The city's large Latino, Vietnamese, and African American populations create consistent demand for culturally affirming and multilingual therapists, and Worcester has been an important destination for refugee resettlement from Southeast Asia, sub-Saharan Africa, and Central America. UMass Memorial Medical Center provides major institutional mental health resources, while the city's university ecosystem supplies important clinical training. Worcester's working-class character and lower cost of living relative to Boston make private therapy more financially accessible, though therapist density remains lower than in the Boston metro.
