Ciera Coyan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Sex therapy is an opportunity to include sex in your therapy work. For some clients it's the focus, for others it comes up only occasionally. Clients can trust that I have specialized training and experience in sexuality, sexual health, sexual functioning, fantasy, kink, BDSM, and mismatched libidos. I work with clients from a pleasure centered, affirming place. There is nothing too weird, shameful, or bizarre to discuss! I help clients accept their unique sexual selves and find ways to experience sexual pleasure free from pain, shame, or judgment.

Shanea McDaniel
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, APRN, PMHNP-BC
I provide compassionate, inclusive care for individuals and partners navigating sexual health, intimacy, and relationship concerns, including those in ethically non-monogamous (ENM) relationships. My collaborative, evidence-based approach offers a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore challenges such as low or changing desire, sexual dysfunction, performance anxiety, intimacy concerns, and the emotional or relational dynamics that may arise in diverse relationship structures. When appropriate, I integrate medication management with supportive therapy and education to help clients improve communication, strengthen connection, enhance sexual well-being, and foster healthier, more fulfilling relationships.

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.

Jason Powell
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CST
As an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist, I specialize in helping individuals and couples address the challenges that can make sex feel stressful, disconnected, or avoidant. Whether you are navigating desire differences, performance anxiety, painful sex, or the impact of infidelity on intimacy, I provide a safe and supportive space to explore both the emotional and physical aspects of sexual well-being.
Sex therapy is not just about fixing problems - it’s about creating a more confident, satisfying, and connected sexual life. Together, we can work toward restoring intimacy, building communication, and fostering an erotic connection that feels authentic and fulfilling.

Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Matters of intimacy can be physical in nature that, in some ways, connect with our emotional lives and can become more complicated as we grow into our relationships with others.
