I’m Jen Joseph, MA, LMFT, CST

Whatever you're bringing — a sex life that's gone quiet, a relationship stuck in the same exhausting loop, a marriage you're not sure you want to save — you've found someone who can handle it. I'm Jen Joseph, an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist, licensed psychotherapist and seasoned couples therapist. I've spent over a decade working with some of the most complex, sensitive, and painful issues individuals and couples bring to therapy.

I’m active, direct, and deeply invested in your progress. I ask the questions many therapists avoid and stay focused on what's really going on beneath the surface — with care, compassion and curiosity.

I welcome diversity of all kinds in my practice and am LGBTQIA+, kink, ENM and neurodivergent competent and affirming.

Feeling more like roommates than partners, but not sure if it's fixable?

Tired of having the same fight on repeat — and never actually resolving it?

Not sure where your desire went, or how to talk about sex without it turning into a fight?

Oscillating between wanting to save your marriage and wanting out?

Carrying something about your sex life you've never said out loud to anyone?

You don't have to have it figured out. You just have to be willing to show up.

Therapy Offerings for Residents of California & Oregon

Sex Therapy

For individuals and couples ready to talk honestly about their sex life — what's missing, what's painful, what's gotten complicated — and make some real changes.

Couples + Relationship Therapy

For couples where the distance has grown, the fights have worn you down, or trust has been broken — and you're not sure what comes next.

Discernment Counseling

For married couples where one or both partners isn't sure they want to stay. Not couples therapy — something more focused, and more honest about where you actually are.

“The quality of your life ultimately depends on the quality of your relationships.”

— Esther Perel
