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.

Chesapeake is the second-largest city in Virginia by land area — a mostly suburban and semi-rural community spread across the southern Hampton Roads region — with a therapy landscape shaped by its proximity to Naval Station Norfolk and the broader military community, as well as the particular stresses of a sprawling suburb where long commutes and limited walkable community can contribute to social isolation. The city's large African American population and its place within Hampton Roads' racially complex social fabric create demand for culturally affirming therapists who work with racial identity, community resilience, and intergenerational family dynamics. Chesapeake Regional Medical Center provides institutional mental health resources alongside the broader Hampton Roads healthcare ecosystem. Many Chesapeake residents access therapy through the wider Norfolk-Virginia Beach metro, given the city's geographic extent and integration with the regional mental health network.
