Sex & Relationship Therapy for Individuals and Couples
Compassionate, evidence‑based support for intimacy, desire, communication, and sexual well‑being — grounded in inclusivity, consent, and real‑life complexity.
Who This Is For
If you’re feeling stuck, disconnected, or frustrated in your relationship with sex or intimacy, you’re not broken — and you’re not alone.
You may be:
Struggling with desire differences or low libido
Experiencing sexual pain, anxiety, or avoidance
Recovering from trauma that impacts intimacy
Feeling disconnected from your partner
Wanting a healthier, more confident relationship with your body or sexuality
Therapy can help you understand what’s happening and move toward change with clarity and support.
How I Help
Hi, I’m Sarah Cissell an AASECT certified sex therapist.
I offer sex and relationship therapy for individuals and couples who want thoughtful, shame‑free support.
My work integrates:
Sex‑positive, trauma‑informed care
Evidence‑based therapeutic approaches
Education about how bodies, desire, and relationships actually work
Respect for your values, identities, and lived experiences
Sessions are collaborative, paced to your needs, and grounded in practical tools you can apply outside the therapy room.
I am a true believer that we all could benefit from having a space to discuss and process what is going on in our lives. I create a therapeutic space free from judgement that is safe and affirming of who you are. I approach the process of healing with curiosity to help you build self-awareness and make positive life changes. I specialize in relationship, dating, and intimacy work because of the awesome transformative potential created by human connections.
"Despite our culture's vested interest in making us feel broken, dysfunctional, unlovely, and unlovable, we are in fact fully capable of confident, joyful sex"
