The short answer: there are not a lot of differences. Where sex therapy can differ from regular therapy is mainly the topics of discussion. I want clients to have a free and open space to explore sexual wellness topics without shame or guilt. We may discuss things outside of your sexual wellness in sex therapy, but my hope is that it will all apply to your sexual being or to your relationship(s).

• Performance: Erectile dysfunction (ED) help, premature ejaculation (PE), performance anxiety, painful intercourse (dyspareunia or vaginismus)

• Desire: Low libido, mismatched sex drives, loss of intimacy, desire discrepancy, hormonal concerns affecting libido (ie. PCOS, aging, etc.)

• Identity: LGBTQ+ affirming therapy, gender identity support, “coming out” help, kink-aware therapy

• Trauma & Recovery: Sexual trauma recovery, postpartum intimacy, healing after infidelity, out of control sexual behaviors (some might refer to as “sex addiction”)

This list is not exhaustive.

I serve adult individuals and couples (18 yo+) in the state of Maryland (or with the ability to travel to the state of Maryland).

You can learn more about my “ideal clients” in my About Diana page.

I attended University of Michigan Sexual Health Certificate Program (completion in 2025) - which is a 160+ hour live continuing education program. It is generally considered the gold standard in sexuality professional education.

I am also under clinical supervision with Dr. Hani Miletski (AASECT certified sex therapist).

I am a dedicated learner to help my clients and always want to help myself show up as the strongest clinician for you.

I offer any potential client (individuals or couples) a complimentary confidential 15-30 minute consultation phone call. The goal of this call is to get to know about what you are seeking in your therapy services. Consider it a low stakes phone call (with no strings attached) for me to get to you know you and you to get to know me. Follow the link to my CONTACT page to connect.
