Sex Therapy in Norfolk, VA
Sex therapy is a form of specialized talk therapy that aims to resolve or improve sexual problems. Sex therapy covers a wide variety of sexual issues ranging from identity and orientation issues, to sexual anxiety or confidence issues, to support for those in BDSM/kink/ENM/poly communities. Because sexuality is complex, it is common for sexual problems to be multi-dimensional with overlapping causes or contributing factors. This is why it’s essential to have a competent sex therapist who you can talk openly with and who can tailor your treatment to your unique needs. It can feel intimidating or awkward to talk to a stranger about your sexual problems. Sometimes people have experienced shame around a particular sexual issue for as long as they can remember, so it’s understandable to feel uncomfortable when talking about it. Don’t let the fear of awkwardness hold you back…we’ll get through it together! I offer sex therapy services to individuals and couples of Norfolk, VA, tailored to your unique needs so that you can achieve the sex life you deserve. Learn more about my approach here.

Online therapy, or teletherapy, allows you to access professional psychotherapy services virtually rather than in a traditional therapy office. It is designed to meet you exactly where you are, literally.

Online therapy is especially appealing to individuals who have busy schedules and may not have the time in their schedule to factor in an appointment and a commute. Residents of Norfolk, VA can skip the hassle of traffic and access therapy services without having to disrupt their day.
