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.

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.

Peter D. Ruffini, Sex & Porn Addiction Expert
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdS, MA, LPC, LPCMH, ACS, EMDRPT-II, CSAT-C
Sex therapy at Proven Path Counseling focuses on restoring emotional and physical intimacy after disruption—whether from performance anxiety, excessive pornography use, compulsive sexual behavior, infidelity, or a breach of trust. Many men want connection again but feel blocked by anxiety, shame, avoidance, or disconnection from their partner.
This work addresses the underlying drivers—nervous system dysregulation, conditioned arousal, distorted expectations, and fear of closeness—so intimacy becomes safe, responsive, and mutual again. The goal is not just sexual functioning, but rebuilding trust, presence, and confidence within a committed relationship.

Dr. Ylenia Martinez
Counselor/Therapist, PsyD
Sex therapy with me is a shame‑free space to talk about desire, arousal, pain, performance concerns, or feeling “shut down” sexually. We explore the intersections of trauma, culture, faith, and identity with your sexual story and use education, communication tools, and nervous‑system work to support more satisfying, authentic intimacy individually or with a partner.

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.
