Marcus A. McDuffie Sr.
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW-S, BCD
I’m especially interested in helping people who struggle with sexual concerns and intimacy, such as differences in desire, difficulty communicating about sex, sexual anxiety, shame or guilt, performance concerns, painful sex, changes in intimacy, or feeling disconnected from your body or partner. Sex therapy can be a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental place to explore what may be affecting your sexual well-being, better understand your needs and boundaries, improve communication, rebuild confidence, and create a healthier, more satisfying intimate life. The aim isn’t to pressure you toward any specific outcome, but to help you feel more informed, comfortable, connected, and empowered in your sexuality and relationships.
I also have experience with depression, anxiety, working with couples and families, dealing with grief and loss, work and career issues, PTSD and trauma-focused therapy, managing stress, ADHD, and many other therapeutic issues. My goal is to offer compassionate, personalized care that helps you understand yourself better, use your strengths, and make lasting changes.

Dr. Heidi Anderson Sauder
Psychologist, PhD, CGT, CST
Sex therapy provides a supportive, nonjudgmental space to explore concerns related to sexuality, intimacy, relationships, and just being a sexual person. Therapy may address challenges such as desire discrepancies, communication around intimacy, sexual anxiety, body image concerns, pain during sex, life transitions, identity exploration, or the impact of stress and past experiences on intimacy. Grounded in education, emotional awareness, and evidence-based therapeutic approaches, sessions are tailored to each couple’s unique values, goals, and experiences. Sex therapy affirms that sexuality is a meaningful part of overall well-being and supports clients in developing greater confidence, connection, communication, and comfort within themselves and their relationships.
