Margaret Light
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CST
As an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist, I've spent years pursuing advanced training in one of the most sensitive areas of our lives- sex! Also, all that extra training means that means there's nothing you can't talk about with me- sexuality, gender, kink, porn, non-monogamy, painful sex, erection issues, sexually acting out, and more. No matter what sexual issue you're facing, I'm ready to help you building a more fulfilling and pleasurable sex life.

Kimberly Zacher
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC, SAC
Sexuality is a natural and important part of well-being, yet it is often surrounded by shame, confusion, or unspoken concerns. I offer a supportive and affirming space to explore issues related to intimacy, desire, sexual identity, performance anxiety, or the impact of trauma on sexual experiences. Whether you are seeking to reconnect with your body, improve communication with a partner, or work through barriers to intimacy, we approach these topics with sensitivity, curiosity, and care. Sex therapy can help you feel more empowered, connected, and at ease in your relationship with yourself and others.

Sexuality is an important aspect of our lives, and when issues arise, they can impact our well-being and relationships. Sex therapy provides a safe and non-judgmental space to explore concerns related to sexual intimacy, desire, performance, or relationship dynamics. Whether you're facing challenges as an individual or as a couple, sex therapy can help you better understand your needs, communicate openly with your partner, and discover ways to enhance intimacy and satisfaction. With professional guidance, you can work through barriers to a fulfilling sexual relationship and create a deeper, more connected experience of intimacy.

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.

Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Sex therapy addresses concerns related to desire, arousal, intimacy, and sexual self-expression within the broader context of emotional and relational life. My work integrates psychoanalytic methods, clinical sexology, hypnosis, and somatic awareness to explore the deeper meanings beneath sexual struggles. Together, we work toward a more coherent, embodied, and authentic relationship with desire and intimacy.

Madison is home to the University of Wisconsin — one of the top research universities in the country — and serves as Wisconsin's state capital, giving it an unusually high concentration of academics, researchers, and government professionals who collectively represent one of the most therapy-positive demographics in the Midwest. The city's progressive political culture and high rate of higher education strongly correlate with high therapy utilization and acceptance across multiple demographics. UW Health and SSM Health St. Mary's Hospital provide institutional mental health resources, with a well-developed private practice community serving Willy Street, Atwood, and the Near East Side. Madison's growing Latino, Hmong, and East African communities are increasing demand for multilingual and culturally grounded therapists.
