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.

Rising Phoenix Therapy - Dempsey Young, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
I do some sex therapy typically with my couples that get stuck in a rut and losing some of the sexy joy of sexual intimacy. But I also help individuals work through issues around sex to whether it be performance anxiety, difficulties with sex drive, exploring sexuality, or really anything else in this realm.

Sex Therapy
Bloom Within You Therapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Lauren Graham, LCSW
Sexual concerns can be deeply personal and may affect how you feel about yourself, your body, and your relationships. I provide sex therapy for women experiencing concerns such as low sexual desire, differences in desire within relationships, difficulty with arousal, sexual shame, discomfort with intimacy, body image concerns, and feeling disconnected from their sexuality.
My approach is compassionate, trauma-informed, sex-positive, and judgment-free. Together, we will explore the emotional, relational, physical, and cultural factors that may be influencing your sexual wellbeing. Sex therapy may include education about desire and arousal, communication and boundary work, mindfulness and body awareness, and practical strategies designed around your individual needs and comfort level.
My goal is to help you better understand your sexuality, feel more confident expressing your needs and boundaries, and develop a healthier, more fulfilling relationship with intimacy, pleasure, and yourself.
