​Sex & Intimacy Therapy Program

My Sex & Intimacy Therapy Program is designed to help partners and couples reconnect with their bodies, their desires, and each other. This structured process blends somatic work, communication training, and experiential exercises that help move intimacy from theory into lived experience.

Rather than simply talking about intimacy, we focus on practicing new ways of relating, communicating, and experiencing pleasure.

​

Sample Program Structure 10 Weeks

While some clients complete the program in 6–10 sessions, depending on their goals and pace, many partners prefer sessions be ongoing in order to dive deeper into long-term relational patterns.

​Because every couple moves at a different pace, some partners may need extra time in certain phases to fully integrate the work and achieve guided mastery.

Sessions are typically scheduled weekly or bi-weekly.

Session Fee: $275–$350 per session

​

Phase 1: Intake & Relationship Mapping

(weeks 1-2)

We begin by gaining a deep understanding of your relationship dynamics, personal history, and current challenges around intimacy and sexuality.

During this phase we explore:

• Relationship history and patterns

• Sexual and intimacy concerns

• Individual emotional patterns and triggers

• Desire differences and relational dynamics (attachment)

• Personal and shared goals for therapy

This phase allows us to create a customized roadmap for your work together.

​​

Phase 2: Communication & Emotional Expression 

(weeks 2-4)

Many couples struggle not because they don’t care about each other—but because they’ve never been taught how to communicate feelings effectively.

In this phase we practice:

• Expressing feelings clearly and honestly

• Listening with curiosity rather than defensiveness

• The Initiator / Inquirer communication framework

• Learning to stay present during vulnerable conversations

This work helps partners feel seen, heard, and emotionally safe.

​

Phase 3: Authenticity & Initiation Practice

(weeks 3-6)

Desire often fades when partners stop expressing their authentic needs.

Here we focus on:

• Reconnecting with authentic desire

• Practicing initiation and invitation skills

• Understanding how each partner expresses and receives intimacy

• Exploring the 18 Modern Love Languages and how they show up in relationships

This phase helps couples rediscover playfulness, curiosity, and attraction.

​

Phase 4: Emotional Regulation & Somatic Awareness 

(weeks 4-6)

Healthy intimacy begins with the ability to stay present in our bodies and emotions.

In this phase we work on:

• Somatic emotional regulation techniques

• Learning to recognize and regulate nervous system responses

• Staying connected during difficult conversations

• Building emotional resilience and self-awareness

These skills create the foundation for deeper intimacy work.

Phase 5: Erotic Communication

(weeks 5-7)

Many people have never learned how to talk about sex openly.

Through guided exercises we practice:

• Sexual communication skills

• Sex-positive sentence completion exercises

• Erotic voice and vocal expression

• Sharing fantasies, desires, and boundaries safely

This work helps remove shame and build confidence around sexual expression.

​

Phase 6: Sensate Focus Practice

(5-Week or more Experiential Practice)

(weeks 6-10)

Sensate Focus is a structured series of exercises designed to help couples rebuild physical intimacy and erotic connection without pressure or performance anxiety.

Over five weeks, couples explore:

• Touch and sensation awareness

• Slowing down and reconnecting with the body

• Reducing anxiety around sex

• Building pleasure and erotic attunement

This phase is often where couples experience the most profound shifts in intimacy and connection.
