Paula Kirsch

Name what's really going on, build language for the things that are hard to say, and work toward changes that actually hold. Not coping strategies to get through the week — real shifts in how you relate to yourself and the people you're closest to.

Warm but direct. Someone who gets it without needing it explained. A therapist who takes their sexuality seriously as a quality of life issue — and who creates a space where nothing requires an apology or a disclaimer before we can get to work.

I became a therapist because… I grew up learning to read relationships out of necessity. Later, my own marriage fell apart, and working with a remarkable therapist during that time showed me from the inside what good therapy can do. Once I found my way through, I knew exactly what I wanted to do with my life.

More about me and my practice… I'm a dual board-certified sex therapist licensed in Connecticut, New York, and Michigan — telehealth only, private pay. I'm also a PhD student in Clinical Sexology. Sex therapy isn't a sideline here, it's the whole practice. Visit paulakirschtherapy.com before reaching out; most people find it helpful.
