Let’s talk about
Sex Therapy
Sex is supposed to be intimate and fun, but when problems interfere with sexual performance—
such as having difficulty maintaining arousal or an inability to have an orgasm—sex can cause frustration, anxiety, guilt, shame, blame, and insecurity, all of which can make sex seem more like a chore than something to be enjoyed.
Explore Your Sex Life, Grow Your Relationship
Welcome to Sex Therapy Matters*. I'm Jeremiah Matters (He/Him) and I'm so glad you found me. As difficult as trying to understand your sex life may have been for you thus far, my hope as a therapist is to help you explore your sex life and grow your relationship by helping you and your partner understand the emotions underlying the sexual problem so that you can both have more grace, patience, compassion, and understanding for each other. Whether pursuing therapy with a partner or by yourself, remember that it took a while to get to this point, so it could take a while to find healing, but don’t lose hope—Call or text me at (949) 524-9362 and start finding relief today.
(*Please note: Although I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist recognized by both the State Boards of California and Nevada, I am still in training and not yet a Certified Sex Therapist. See my “About” page for more information.)
Health & Safety Statement
If you are a current client and are having any symptoms of being sick, please let me know as soon as possible by texting me. While I am currently only seeing clients online via a HIPAA-compliant video platform (Telehealth therapy), it is more important to me that you get some rest and heal properly so we can continue our sessions when you are feeling better.

Integrative Sex and Couples Therapy
Many therapists focusing on sex therapy only focus on the sexual aspect of a couple’s relationship—meaning that the focus is on the content of the sexual problem. Although focusing on the content is a vital aspect of treating sexual problems, it cannot be the only focus because there are deep, powerful emotions underlying the sexual problem that are often not being expressed in the relationship. In Integrative Sex and Couples Therapy, I help couples not only to understand those underlying emotions, but also to give them the tools to learn how to properly express those emotions to each other in a way that will help each partner better understand what is going on beneath the sexual problem and the overt, secondary emotions that are being improperly displaced.

Sex Therapy for Individuals
Although sex therapy typically includes working with a couple, there are times when individual sex therapy might be more appropriate. Whether the reason is because an individual does not have a partner, they are not yet comfortable disclosing their sexual problem to their partner, or any other reason, it is never too late to start getting help in order to improve the quality of your sex life.
