Questions people ask
- What is intimacy therapy?
- Intimacy-focused therapy addresses desire, sexual communication, body image, confidence, and the emotional experiences that shape physical and emotional closeness.
- Is this individual or couples work?
- Both. Some clients come individually and others as a couple. What matters is where the conversation needs to happen.
- Is this sex therapy?
- We provide intimacy-focused psychotherapy and education within each clinician's verified scope of training. If specialized certified sex therapy is needed, we will refer.
- What if my partner and I have different levels of desire?
- Desire discrepancy is one of the most common reasons couples seek this work. Therapy focuses on understanding each partner's context and building communication rather than assigning blame.
- Will I have to share explicit details?
- No. You decide what you share. The work moves at your pace and focuses on patterns, meaning, and communication.
- Is this space inclusive of LGBTQ+ clients and relationship structures?
- Yes. The work is respectful and inclusive of all orientations, gender identities, and consensual relationship structures.
- Can therapy help with intimacy after having children?
- Yes. Shifts in identity, exhaustion, body changes, and reduced privacy commonly affect intimacy, and therapy addresses both the practical and emotional layers.
- Can intimacy therapy help after a betrayal?
- Yes. Rebuilding physical intimacy after betrayal usually requires restoring emotional safety first, which the work addresses directly.
- Does intimacy change with age, illness, or medication?
- Yes. Aging, chronic illness, hormonal shifts, and medications can all affect desire and function. Medical evaluation may be recommended alongside therapy.
- Do you address body image and sexual confidence?
- Yes. Shame, cultural messaging, and body image are frequent focuses of this work.
- Is intimacy therapy confidential?
- Yes. Sessions are confidential, with the same narrow legal exceptions that apply to all therapy.
- Are sessions online?
- Yes. Sessions are virtual for clients located in Texas, Colorado, or Missouri.
- Does insurance cover intimacy or sexual wellness therapy?
- Coverage depends on your plan and whether the work is billed as individual treatment. Couples-based work is generally not covered. See Rates & Insurance.
- What if only one partner wants to work on intimacy?
- Individual work is still useful. One partner changing how they communicate about needs and boundaries often shifts the relational pattern.
- How do I get started?
- Use the Start Here page or call the office and mention intimacy-focused support so we can match you with an appropriate clinician.
