How Can Authentic Self Help You?
Authentic Self offers a variety of services for various presenting concerns:
Individual & Relationship Counseling

Sex Therapy
Specialty talk therapy focused on sex and intimacy concerns. Therapy can focus on an individual or work within a relationship.
Specific concerns can include but are not limited to:
- Desire Discrepancy
- Erectile Dysfunction
- Low Libido
- “Out of Control Sexual Behavior”
(also known as “Sex Addiction”) - Sex-based Anxiety
While sex therapy can be a short-term “solution focused” therapy; more often than not, sessions will dive into the underlying patterns and origins of current sexual dysfunction.
This implies that, like individual or relationship counseling, sex therapy can also be ongoing or long-term care.
Substance Abuse Counseling
Outpatient (OP) level of care, within a private practice setting, ideal for the client who has finished traditional Intensive Outpatient programming.
Specific topics of focus can include but are not limited to:
- Recovery Maintenance
- Life After Treatment
- Dating & Sex in Recovery
- Court and/or EAP Mandated OP Care
- Continuation of IOP Treatment Goals
For individuals entering into services as a “step-down” in treatment, I work hand-in-hand with previous treatment facilities to coordinate care as a means to meet client needs at current level of care.
For individuals who have not entered into formal treatment, I will work closely with you to process through your current relationships with substances and provide referrals as needed.
Authentic Self Counseling & Sex Therapy does not accept insurance. Clients are provided a “superbill” at the end of each session that they can submit to their insurance provider for “Out of Network” reimbursement.
