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.

Jason Powell
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CST
As an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist, I specialize in helping individuals and couples address the challenges that can make sex feel stressful, disconnected, or avoidant. Whether you are navigating desire differences, performance anxiety, painful sex, or the impact of infidelity on intimacy, I provide a safe and supportive space to explore both the emotional and physical aspects of sexual well-being.
Sex therapy is not just about fixing problems - it’s about creating a more confident, satisfying, and connected sexual life. Together, we can work toward restoring intimacy, building communication, and fostering an erotic connection that feels authentic and fulfilling.

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.

Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
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.

Dr. Mike Abrams
Psychologist, PhD, MBA, ABPP
My books include a textbook on sexuality and I teach sex therapy and sexuality at NYU. Having taught sexuality for decades has guided me to be effective in helping people with adversities related to sex. I have treated people with virtually ever conceivable sexual problem and most have benefitted from my help. I understand the strong emotions, such as shame and guilt when confronting problems related on ones sexual function or desires. Over many decades, I continually improved my skills, knowledge and empathy.
