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.

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.

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.
