Individual sex therapy in Scottsdale, az

Scottsdale is known for its beauty and growth, but many people here still carry the hidden weight of sexual trauma, shame, anxiety, or fear. These experiences can affect intimacy, relationships, and your sense of safety in daily life. At The Connection Couch in Scottsdale, Holly Nelson offers individual sex therapy as a safe and supportive space to process the past and move toward healing.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), National Certified Counselor (NCC), EMDR Certified clinician, and AASECT Sex Therapist (in progress), Holly specializes in working with survivors of sexual assault, unwanted sexual experiences, religious or cultural sexual shame, painful intercourse, kink/BDSM, and performance anxiety. Her goal is to help you feel safe in your body again, rebuild trust in yourself, and reconnect with intimacy in ways that feel authentic and empowering.

Sex doesn’t have to feel stressful, painful, or shame-filled. As a sex therapist, I offer individual sex therapy to help you work through sexual anxiety, erectile dysfunction, sexual pain, past sexual trauma or PTSD, shame, or negative beliefs so you can feel safe in your body, explore your desires, and enjoy intimacy on your own terms. Together, we’ll uncover what’s getting in the way of pleasure and build a path toward sexual confidence and connection.

If you’re ready to take the next step, reach out to schedule a consultation with Holly today.

Couples sex therapy in scottsdale, az

Scottsdale offers so much to couples — yet even in a beautiful and thriving community, relationships can become strained. Busy schedules, stress, and unresolved hurts often leave partners feeling disconnected, both emotionally and physically. At The Connection Couch in Scottsdale, Holly offers couples sex therapy as a supportive space to strengthen communication, rebuild intimacy, and rediscover connection.

You and your partner don’t have to feel stuck in silence, frustration, or pressure around sex. In couples sex therapy, as a sex therapist (in progress), I help you understand the emotional patterns that keep you disconnected, rebuild trust, and create intimacy that feels safe and exciting again. Together, we’ll work through desire differences, sexual anxiety, or past hurts and use evidence-based tools—like Emotionally Focused Therapy and sensate focus—to bring you closer than ever.
