Specialized Sex Therapy for Gay Men

If you’re searching for sex therapy for gay men in NJ, you may be dealing with concerns that feel difficult to talk about—erection issues, desire or arousal challenges, performance anxiety, pain, or ongoing shame around sex. My work offers specialized, affirming sex therapy for gay men, designed to help you feel more confident, connected, and satisfied in your sexual life. I am a certified sex therapist with extensive experience working with gay men. Therapy is provided in a supportive, non-judgmental environment where both the emotional and physical aspects of sexual health are addressed.

Sex therapy with me is comprehensive and tailored to your specific needs. I commonly help gay men with:

  • Erectile concerns and performance anxiety
  • Desire and arousal challenges
  • Ejaculation concerns
  • Pain or discomfort during sex
  • Shame, guilt, or anxiety around sex
  • Navigating complex sexual dynamics and intimacy

Whether these concerns are recent or long-standing, therapy focuses on helping you develop a healthier, more fulfilling relationship with sex.

A Holistic Approach to Sexual Health

In our sessions, we explore the physical, emotional, and psychological aspects of your sexual experiences. I integrate approaches from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), somatic therapy, and sex therapy to identify root causes—not just manage symptoms.

This holistic approach supports lasting change by helping you:

  • Reduce anxiety and self-criticism
  • Increase sexual confidence and pleasure
  • Develop a stronger mind–body connection
  • Create sustainable improvements in sexual wellbeing

Reducing Shame and Reclaiming Sexual Confidence

Many gay men grow up internalizing negative messages about sex, desire, or their bodies. These messages—often rooted in stigma, secrecy, or rejection—can interfere with intimacy and pleasure.

A core part of sex therapy is reducing shame and stigma, allowing you to explore your desires and experiences with greater self-acceptance. Therapy becomes a space where curiosity replaces judgment and confidence replaces fear.

Communication, Intimacy, and Connection

Sexual satisfaction is deeply connected to communication. In therapy, we work on:

  • Expressing sexual needs and boundaries
  • Talking openly about fantasies and preferences
  • Navigating differences in desire or expectations
  • Strengthening emotional and sexual intimacy

These skills support not only your sex life, but your relationships overall.

Frequently asked questions

Here are some common questions to help you understand more about my practice and what to expect from our sessions. If you have any other questions, please feel free to reach out!

Where are you licensed to practice therapy?

I am licensed to practice therapy in New York, New Jersey, and Utah. This allows me to provide telehealth services to clients located in these states, ensuring that you receive the support you need regardless of your location within these areas. In all other states, I am able to provide coaching services.

Do you accept insurance?

I do not accept insurance, however, upon request, I will electronically submit your claim for you or provide you with a receipt/superbill.

What can I expect during my first therapy session?

During your first therapy session, we will focus on getting to know each other and understanding your goals for therapy. I will ask about your background, current challenges, and what you hope to achieve through our work together. This initial session is also an opportunity for you to ask any questions you might have about the therapy process. The goal is to create a comfortable, safe space where you feel heard and understood.

How long will therapy take?

The length of therapy varies depending on your individual needs and goals. Some clients find significant relief and progress in a few months, while others may benefit from longer-term therapy. During our sessions, we will regularly review your progress and adjust the treatment plan as needed. The goal is to ensure that you are moving towards your desired outcomes at a pace that feels right for you.

What if I don’t feel comfortable discussing certain topics?

It’s completely normal to feel hesitant about discussing certain topics, especially in the beginning. My approach is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can talk about whatever you feel comfortable with at your own pace. Over time, as trust builds, many clients find it easier to open up about more difficult issues. Your comfort and readiness are always the priority, and we will go at a pace that feels right for you.

How do I know if therapy is working?

Progress in therapy can be measured in various ways, such as improvements in mood, changes in behavior, better coping strategies, and enhanced relationships. We will set specific goals at the beginning of our work together and regularly review them to track your progress. You might notice positive changes in how you feel, think, and interact with others. Open communication about your experiences and feelings during therapy will also help ensure that we are on the right track.
