Sex Therapy
Kasey Scharnett King
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-S, CST
Sex therapy focuses on improving intimacy, communication, and understanding around sexual concerns. Clients often seek sex therapy when physical or emotional intimacy feels strained, confusing, or disconnected. This may include concerns related to desire differences, sexual avoidance, performance anxiety, communication about needs, or the impact of stress and life transitions on intimacy.
Our work in sex therapy is respectful, structured, and grounded in helping clients understand how emotional safety, communication, and relationship patterns influence sexual connection. Therapy provides a space to talk openly, reduce shame, and build a healthier, more intentional relationship with intimacy.

Abbrielle Schenck
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-Associate
Sexual concerns are deeply personal and often shaped by shame, silence, or confusing messages about what your body, desires, or relationships are supposed to look like. Many clients come in carrying the weight of purity culture, religious or cultural expectations, or past experiences that taught them to disconnect from parts of themselves. I offer a safe, respectful space to explore issues related to desire, intimacy, boundaries, identity, and connection. My approach focuses on emotional safety, understanding root patterns, and building a healthier relationship with your body and sexuality. Whether you are navigating personal or relational struggles, you deserve care that is thoughtful, grounded, and nonjudgmental.

Michael J. Salas
Counselor/Therapist, PsyD, LPC-S, LCDC, CSAT, CST
Sex is one of the most intimate parts of a relationship, but when something isn’t working, it can lead to distance, frustration, and shame. As a Certified Sex Therapist with specialized training in helping individuals and couples improve their sexual connection, I offer a space where you can talk openly and work through what’s getting in the way.
Whether you’re dealing with erectile dysfunction, premature or delayed ejaculation, vaginismus, low desire, or pain during sex, these issues can take a toll on both you and your relationship. You’re not alone—and there are ways to work through it. Together, we’ll explore what’s going on emotionally, physically, and relationally, and develop tools to help you feel more connected, confident, and present.
I'm also a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT), and I work with people navigating sexual compulsivity, porn addiction, and out-of-control sexual behaviors. If your relationship with sex feels overwhelming or secretive, therapy can help you gain clarity, control, and a healthier sense of intimacy.
Sex therapy isn’t about judgment—it’s about helping you build the kind of sexual life and connection that feels good, meaningful, and true to who you are.

Brownsville is one of the southernmost cities in the United States and sits directly on the US-Mexico border — sharing the border with Matamoros, Tamaulipas — with a population that is over 90% Hispanic and where Spanish is the dominant language of daily life, making bilingual, bicultural therapy not a specialty but the baseline expectation for meaningful access to care. The city's poverty rate is among the highest in the United States, and therapists here frequently address the compounding effects of economic stress, immigration-related family separation, and the chronic anxiety of border community life. Valley Baptist Medical Center and the UT Health RGV system provide institutional mental health resources for the Rio Grande Valley region. The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley's psychology and counseling programs supply clinical training to a region that remains significantly underserved relative to its mental health needs.
