Sexual concerns are some of the most common things people carry and some of the last things they bring to therapy. Desire that has gone quiet, anxiety that shows up at the worst moment, a gap between what you and a partner want, shame you cannot trace — these are all workable, and none of them mean something is wrong with you.
At Peace Love Wellness, sex therapy is offered by Cameron Eshgh, LMHC-D, the practice founder, within a relational, trauma-informed approach. Cameron is currently full and accepting waitlist requests.
You don't need the right words or a clear diagnosis to start. Most people begin with some version of “this is hard to talk about,” and that is a fine place to begin.
Sex therapy is talk therapy. Sessions are conversations, with you alone or with a partner, about what is happening in your sexual life and what sits underneath it: anxiety, history, beliefs, the relationship itself. There is no touch and nothing physical in session.
Some sexual concerns have a medical side. Where pain, hormones, medication, or a health condition may be involved, therapy works best alongside a medical provider, and we will say so when that looks likely.
Sex therapy at Peace Love Wellness is offered by Cameron Eshgh, LMHC-D. Cameron's training in sex therapy comes from graduate coursework and continuing education, and he works with sexual concerns inside a relational, trauma-informed, sex-positive frame.
Cameron's caseload is currently full and he is accepting waitlist requests. If sex therapy is what you are looking for, tell us when you reach out and we will be straight with you about timing.

Sex therapy is a form of talk therapy focused on sexual concerns, such as low or mismatched desire, performance anxiety, difficulty with arousal or orgasm, sexual shame, and intimacy after trauma. Sessions are conversations, individually or with a partner. There is no physical contact or sexual activity in session.
Cameron Eshgh, LMHC-D, the practice founder, offers sex therapy. Cameron is currently full and accepting waitlist requests. Our other clinicians are sex-positive and kink-affirming and can work with sexuality and relationships in therapy, but do not offer sex therapy as a specialty.
Cameron is not AASECT-certified. His sex therapy training comes from graduate coursework and continuing education, and he is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC-D) in New York.
Either. Many people come alone to work on desire, anxiety, shame, or their own history. Partners can also come together when the concern lives between you.
If you have pain with sex, a sudden change in sexual function, or think a medication or health condition may be involved, a medical evaluation is a good idea. Therapy and medical care often work together, and you do not need to finish one before starting the other.
