Therapist

Hi, I’m Lauren, an LCSW providing sex therapy via telehealth in Tennessee and Virginia. I help individuals and couples work through concerns like desire differences, performance anxiety, pain with sex, and sexual communication. My approach is nonjudgmental, practical, and affirming. If you want a safe space to talk about sex, I’d love to help.

You deserve to feel seen, accepted, and understood—exactly as you are. I offer a safe, affirming, and judgment-free space where you can explore your identity, express your true self, and find relief from the weight of life’s challenges.
