Sex Therapy
Vincent Espinoza
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I love to talk about sex! Sex is a beautiful thing and we all should be having as much of as we want without feeling ashamed, guilty or worried about expressing our internal truth regarding our sexual identities, sexual practices, and our sexual health and functioning in our relationships. I enjoy helping clients to explore their sexuality in a safe and affirming environment that provides unconditional positive regard, empathy, curiosity and meaningful growth.

Sex Therapy
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.

Sex Therapy
Melanie Collins
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC, LCMHC, Coach
Sexuality is an important part of being human, yet it can be surprisingly difficult to find a place where you can talk about it openly and without judgment. I work with individuals and couples on concerns related to desire, intimacy, sexual communication, sexual functioning, differing levels of desire, shame, identity, and creating more satisfying sexual relationships. My approach is sex-positive, kink-aware, and affirming of consensual BDSM, alternative relationship structures, and diverse expressions of sexuality. You shouldn’t have to censor yourself or worry about shocking your therapist—we can talk honestly about what’s happening, what you want, and what may be getting in the way.

Dr. Alishia Kalos
Psychologist, PsyD, CST
Dr. Kalos provides sex therapy for individuals and couples experiencing concerns related to sexuality, intimacy, and sexual functioning. Treatment may address desire, arousal, orgasm, erection, sexual pain, communication about sex, differences in sexual interests, and other concerns that can affect sexual well-being and relationships. Her approach is collaborative, affirming, and nonjudgmental.
Dr. Kalos specializes in working with individuals experiencing distress, confusion, or concerns related to atypical or unusual sexual interests, including individuals who experience minor attraction (MAPs). Therapy provides a confidential, nonjudgmental setting to explore sexual thoughts and interests, understand their meaning and function, develop healthy strategies for managing unwanted or concerning thoughts and behaviors, and support choices that prioritize personal well-being and the safety of others.

Sex Therapy
Dr. Ylenia Martinez
Counselor/Therapist, PsyD
Sex therapy with me is a shame‑free space to talk about desire, arousal, pain, performance concerns, or feeling “shut down” sexually. We explore the intersections of trauma, culture, faith, and identity with your sexual story and use education, communication tools, and nervous‑system work to support more satisfying, authentic intimacy individually or with a partner.
