Success Behavioral Health, Teresa J Lynch
Psychologist, PhD, LP, CCHT, CMHIMP
Before you reach for the pills or clumsy devices (or if they have not worked), try the extremely effective combined therapy using cognitive-behavioral techniques and hypnotherapy for sexual problems related to interest (libido) or arousal for women or men. Treatment is effective regardless of your relationship status or partner choice. Additionally, I can help you explore and learn about nutritional and other complementary approaches to help balance and fortify your system.

Josh Murray- Hopeful Minds
Psychologist, MA, LLP
Sex therapy is a type of psychotherapy that addresses mental health issues and/ or emotional concerns affecting a person’s sexual function, drive, and/or desire for intimacy. These issues are typically explored with the help of a licensed sex therapist. Some people seek help individually, while others may pursue sex therapy with a romantic partner.
This specialized form of therapy was developed in order to help people address concerns related to sexual intimacy. Thus, while it may not always be easy to bring up the topic of sexual concerns, they are certainly not uncommon.
Adequate and comprehensive sex counseling can have a positive impact on the psychological and sexual health of a person or couple in therapy, even after only a short period of time. Still, the effectiveness of the therapy ultimately depends on the willingness of the person in therapy to accept the concepts presented to them during a session.
Most experts agree that sex therapy—like other modes of therapy—is most helpful when all parties honestly consider the concerns raised and make a considered, collaborative (when applicable) effort to work through them.

Limited License Psychologist, LLP
Sexual concerns rarely exist in isolation. They often intersect with stress, self-esteem, relationships, trauma, faith, or life transitions. Therapy provides a compassionate space to explore these experiences, understand what's contributing to your concerns, and move toward a healthier relationship with your sexuality and yourself.

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.
