Sex therapy is a specialized form of talk therapy that aims to improve or resolve problems related to sex. Sex therapists are trained to treat a wide variety of sexual problems, such as erectile dysfunction, performance anxiety, identity and orientation issues, healing from sexual trauma, low desire, and other problems related to arousal, desire, and orgasm. Sexuality is complex, which is why many people stay “stuck” with the same problems for so long when they don’t seek help. You’re here because you’re tired of being stuck, and I’m eager to help McLean, VA residents move towards a more fulfilling sex life through online sex therapy.

My clients usually find that the initial nervousness subsides fairly quickly, as I take great care to put you at ease and move at a pace you’re comfortable with. The awkwardness is survivable and we’ll get through it together! You’ll come out on the other side with more clarity about your sexual issues and more confident in communicating about sex. I’m excited to extend sex therapy services to residents of McLean, VA and Fairfax County. Learn more about me and my approach here.

Online therapy, or teletherapy, is the same as ‘regular’ talk therapy, except it takes place virtually rather than in an office setting. It is a convenient and accessible option for the residents of McLean, VA, allowing you to access specialized therapy services, such as sex therapy, from the comfort and privacy of your own home. One of the benefits of online therapy is that it offers you more flexibility with your scheduling. This is especially appealing to busy professionals and stay-at-home parents who may find traveling to an in-person appointment to be disruptive to their daily routines. For McLean, VA residents, online therapy means not having to worry about the additional time and stress associated with commuting and scheduling around other commitments. Teletherapy is easier to fit into your daily life, allowing you to get back to your day once your appointment is over.
Teletherapy is also suitable for couples and polycules, whether you are logging in from the same device or from separate locations. Couples and polycules of Mclean, VA may find it easier to find a common time to attend therapy with their partner(s) when all that’s required is logging onto a device from a private space.

Online therapy means you don’t have to put your sexual problems on hold. Accessing shame-free sex therapy in McLean, VA has never been easier.

I advise starting out with weekly or biweekly appointments for optimal progress to occur. I find that progress is slower when starting out with less frequent sessions, as it will take some time to develop rapport and to fully assess the bigger picture of what may be contributing to your sexual concerns. Clients are most successful when they actively work towards their goals in between our appointments. I will provide homework or suggestions on what to work on between sessions, but you will never be asked to do something you don’t want to do. While I may encourage you to step outside of your comfort zone, I take a collaborative approach and will make sure you’re in agreement about anything I recommend outside of sessions. I want to see you succeed, so I will check in regularly about our pacing and progress to make sure we’re on the same page. Whether you’re looking to revive sexual desire, overcome erectile difficulties, or reclaim pleasure after experiencing sexual harm, I’m here to help McLean, VA residents rediscover joy with shame-free sex therapy services. I look forward to hearing from you.
