Jon Prezant
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MSW, MA, CST — Sex & Couples Therapist
As an AASECT-certified sex therapist, I work with individuals and couples on the full range of sexual concerns, desire discrepancies, arousal and function difficulties, mismatched sexual styles, kink and identity exploration, sexual shame, and the quieter dissatisfactions that are harder to name. My work is non-judgmental, sex-positive, and grounded in the reality that sex rarely sits apart from the rest of a person's life.

Anneka Gavrin
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Sex is about far more than what happens in the bedroom. It touches vulnerability, communication, desire, identity, pleasure, and the ways we connect with ourselves and our partners. Whether you're navigating differences in desire, intimacy concerns, shame, or sexual anxiety, therapy offers a supportive space to explore these experiences openly, deepen connection, and cultivate a more authentic and fulfilling intimate life.

Greta Klaber
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ma, LMFT
Sexuality can be a deeply important and vulnerable part of our lives, and yet many people don’t have spaces where they can talk about it openly. I offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space to explore concerns around sex, intimacy, desire, and connection. My approach integrates somatic awareness, parts work, and psychodynamic insight to help clients better understand their internal experiences—whether around boundaries, communication, shame, fantasy, body image, or identity. I see sex therapy as an opportunity for growth, healing, and deeper self-understanding. It can be a powerful pathway toward greater connection with yourself and others, and toward creating a more satisfying and authentic relationship to your own sexuality.

Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Sometimes desire fades, or arousal doesn’t come when we want it to, or sex has stopped feeling like ours. I’m curious about what happens in you, and between you and a partner, when sexual life becomes difficult or when it is hard to say what you want. I work psychoanalytically, and I draw on clinical sexology, hypnosis, and awareness of the body, and we take our time finding out what these difficulties mean for you.

Liberation Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
I offer sex therapy from a sex-positive, trauma-informed, and non-judgmental perspective. Before becoming a therapist, I worked as a professional dominatrix, and I now work therapeutically with many current and former sex workers, as well as people exploring diverse expressions of sexuality and relationship structures. I have presented at the AltSex Conference in New York City, and much of my clinical work involves helping people navigate desire, shame, identity, intimacy, boundaries, kink, power dynamics, and communication. I welcome individuals and couples of all orientations, gender identities, and relationship styles, and I strive to create a space where you can talk about sex openly and honestly without fear of being judged, pathologized, or misunderstood.

Dont give up on sex. Most people are more open and available and interested when they are more free from the stuckness of unfinished business .

Ayden Ferstenberg
Psychologist, PsyD
Sex can become a source of pressure, rejection, shame, or disconnection even in relationships where love and commitment are strong. I am a trained sex therapist who works with individuals and couples who feel disconnected from their erotic selves, struggle with mismatched desire, or are dissatisfied with what their sex life looks like. Together, we explore what may be getting in the way, including relationship dynamics, trauma, body image, shame, difficulty accessing your own needs, or patterns of pursuing and avoiding intimacy. Our work goes beyond addressing a sexual concern in isolation; it is about reconnecting with your sexuality, vitality, and capacity for pleasure while building a sexual life that feels authentic, mutual, and alive.

Zaray Dratch
Pre-Licensed Professional, MFT-LP
Sex is one of the last things couples talk about in therapy, and usually one of the first things that signals something is wrong. Low desire, mismatched libidos, pain during sex, difficulty with arousal or orgasm, feeling disconnected from your own body or from your partner, these are real, common, and treatable. They are also almost never just about sex.
What happens in the bedroom is connected to everything else, trust, communication, stress, history, how safe you feel, how seen you feel. Sex therapy here doesn't treat the symptom in isolation. It looks at the whole picture.
This is a space where you can say the thing you've been too embarrassed to bring up anywhere else. What's not working. What you want but haven't asked for. What used to feel good and doesn't anymore. What you've never tried but want to. Nothing you say will land with shock or judgment. These conversations are normal here, because they should be normal everywhere.
Whether you're coming as a couple or on your own, the goal is the same: helping you have a sexual life that actually feels good, connected, and like yours.
