Sex and Intimacy Challenges

Are you wondering what happened to the intimacy you used to feel? Do you ask yourself, “Will we ever have that passion again? Or any sex at all?”
​
If you’re here, you might feel like the closeness in your relationship has faded, leaving you feeling distant from your partner—even though you're still sharing a life together. Maybe intimacy feels vulnerable, frustrating, or even unsafe to talk about. You might be longing for touch, craving connection, or feeling rejected when your needs don’t align.
​
Or perhaps you’ve thought:
“It feels impossible to talk about sex without someone getting upset.”
“I love my partner, but I don’t feel desired anymore.”
“We used to be passionate, but now I feel like we’re just coexisting.”
“I want sex, but I don’t want to beg for it.”
“We’re stuck in a cycle of mismatched libidos, and it’s exhausting.”
​
The good news? You don’t have to stay stuck here. Intimacy and passion can be rekindled, no matter how long it's been.
​
Let’s Talk About Sex—Without Judgment
When you come to therapy with me, you’re stepping into a space of total safety and respect. There’s no judgment, no shame—just open, honest exploration of what intimacy means to you.
💡 No topic is off-limits. Struggles with mismatched libidos? Past trauma affecting your intimacy? Feeling like your needs are never met? We can talk about it.
💡 All relationships and identities are welcome. Whether your struggles are emotional, physical, cultural, or personal—this is a space for you and your partner to understand and support each other.
💡 Sex doesn’t have to be one-size-fits-all. Forget what you’ve been told about what intimacy "should" look like. We’ll explore what feels authentic and fulfilling for both of you.
​
Why Does Intimacy Feel So Hard?
So many couples struggle with intimacy challenges, but the reasons behind them can be deeply personal. You may be facing:
-
Difficulty Communicating About Needs – Every time the topic comes up, it leads to tension or shutdown.
-
Mismatched Libidos – One of you wants more sex than the other, leading to feelings of pressure, rejection, or resentment.
-
Emotional Disconnect – When emotional intimacy fades, physical intimacy often follows.
-
Past Experiences & Trauma – Old wounds, past relationships, or even cultural conditioning can shape how you approach intimacy.
-
Routine & Burnout – When life gets busy, intimacy can feel like an afterthought rather than a priority.
-
Fear of Rejection – Not feeling wanted, sexy, or desired can make it hard to even try.
-
Performance Anxiety – Worrying about whether sex will be “good” can take the fun and connection out of it.
If any of these resonate with you, you’re not alone—and there’s a way forward.
