Sex Therapy
What is sex therapy?
Sex therapy is a specialized type of psychotherapy. Through sex therapy, you can address concerns about sexual function, sexual feelings and intimacy, gender or sexual orientation. Theresa is currently working towards certification as an AASECT Sex Therapist. She has also completed specialized training offered by the World Association for Transgender Health.
Sessions are all virtual and can occur with individuals and/or couples from 18 to 100!
*Prior to verbal interventions sometimes other neurobiological interventions such as Neuroptimal Neurofeedback, Safe and Sound Protocol or MUSE biofeedback can help set the stage for effective intervention.
