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.

Paula Kirsch
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CST
Sex therapy is just therapy — about one of the most human parts of being alive. I work with concerns about desire, arousal, pain, orgasm, and intimacy in a way that is direct, nonjudgmental, and clinically grounded. Nothing you bring here will shock me. We will talk about it plainly, and we will actually work on it.

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.

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.

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.
