Sex & intimacy therapy

Sex & Intimacy Therapy in Greenwich, CT

Direct, compassionate support for the parts of a relationship that can be hardest to discuss.

Questions about desire, sex, and intimacy can feel surprisingly hard to put into words. You may be wondering why physical connection has changed, how to talk about what you want, how to recover after a rupture, or whether your experience is something other people struggle with too.

01

Nothing is too awkward to talk about.

Sex therapy is talk therapy. There is no physical contact, nudity, or pressure to share more than you are ready to discuss. We can talk directly about desire differences, loss of intimacy, sexual communication, changes over time, infidelity, shame, boundaries, identity, and the emotional and relational parts of sexual connection.

02

The whole relationship matters

Intimacy is shaped by more than one moment or one person. Stress, health changes, trust, communication, past experiences, family life, expectations, and the way a relationship has evolved can all have a place in the conversation. Therapy gives those factors room without reducing the issue to a simple fix.

03

A conversation with care

The goal is not to make anyone perform or explain themselves perfectly. It is to create a more honest conversation about what is happening and what matters to you, with clinical grounding and without judgment.
