Who Needs Sex Therapy?
Sex therapy, akin to a mental and spiritual workout, offers benefits even for those already sexually adept. It’s particularly crucial if one feels unsatisfied or uneasy in intimate relationships.
Addressing the state of one’s sex life can be daunting, yet at Simple Modern, we foster a non-judgmental, shame-free environment. Our therapists recognize sexuality’s diverse spectrum and understand how external factors like purity culture, trauma, and religious shame can disrupt sexual well-being.
Sex Therapy & Intimacy Concerns
Life is full of disruptions and changes. It’s normal to feel the need to adjust your sex life accordingly (think of it like yearly maintenance!). Many couples face challenges adapting to sex after children.
For instance, sex with a chronic illness, STI, or disability can be overwhelming. Not to mention, pain during sex, sex with changing hormones/aging, a low sex drive, or erectile disfunction. In other words, any disruption to your sexual health and satisfaction can cause disruptions to your mental health and happiness.
Living with a less-than-satisfactory relationship with sex and intimacy can feel very lonely and alienating.

Heather is a broad-minded, big-hearted, highly skilled and compassionate clinician. She brings her full self to her work and is there to deeply meet you in a multi-dimensional way. I would highly recommend her especially if you are feeling lost in your life or relationship and are trying to root back to what deeply matters to you. She is a trustworthy co-pilot towards meaning and peace.
