Find a Sex Therapist in NYC & All New York
Want to Work With a Sex Therapist in NYC?
If your sex life, marriage, intimate partner or even your own sexuality feels misaligned with what you truly desire, we can help. Sex counseling is like regular therapy but with an intentional focus on the areas of your sex life and sexual activity that feel like they need care to thrive.
Therapy does not involve physical touch. It is a conversation with an individual therapist intended to explore the heart of your challenges and use skill building and tools to help you create the sex life you most desire.
Sex therapy can be done as individual therapy or as a couples therapy. Couples sex therapy can be incredibly helpful for exploring complex topics like sexual satisfaction, mismatched libidos or sex drive, past sexual trauma, opening up a relationship, improving communication, reducing stress and more.
