Dr. Anna Smith
Psychologist, PsyD, MEd, MA
As an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist, I specialize in helping individuals and couples address desire differences, low libido, sexual anxiety, shame, intimacy challenges, erectile difficulties, pain during sex, or simply wanting a more connected and satisfying erotic life. We talk openly about sex without flinching, explore the emotional and relational factors that influence desire and pleasure, and create practical, shame-free steps toward the intimacy you crave. Sex therapy here is warm, collaborative, and deeply affirming of all bodies, orientations, and expressions of sexuality.

Erica Hart
Psychologist, PhD in Clinical Psychology
Clients (individuals and couples) experiencing sexual satisfaction issues, dysfunction, trauma reactions and low desire often seek my support. Through understanding relational and sexual histories, past experiences, cultural and gender-related narratives, I can help clients understand how their current issues arose. I work using attachment theory, relational and psychodynamic therapeutic approaches and sensate-focused exercises.

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.

Memphis has among the highest rates of poverty and violent crime in the United States, and its therapists frequently specialize in trauma, PTSD, and the psychological effects of chronic community-level violence and economic stress. The city's African American community — which comprises a majority of the population and carries a rich cultural heritage rooted in blues, soul, and civil rights history — drives strong demand for culturally affirming therapists who understand racial trauma and intergenerational resilience. Regional One Health and Baptist Memorial Health Care provide major institutional mental health resources alongside a growing network of community clinics. Memphis's deep musical identity sustains a creative community with its own distinctive mental health needs around artistic expression, economic precarity, and the weight of legacy.
