Couples & Sex Psychotherapy
Couples Therapy for Connection and Communication
Dr. Lewin offers couples therapy rooted in evidence-based models designed to help partners break negative patterns, improve communication, and reconnect emotionally. Whether couples are struggling with recurring conflict, emotional disconnection, or challenges in intimacy, Dr. Lewin works collaboratively to help restore a healthier, more fulfilling relationship dynamic.
Her integrative approach combines principles from the following therapeutic models:
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT): Focuses on deepening emotional connections and addressing attachment issues that affect the relationship
Integrative Behavioral Couple Therapy (IBCT): Enhances empathy and acceptance while facilitating behavioral change for greater relational harmony.
The Gottman Method: Empowers couples with tools to manage conflict, improve communication, and strengthen the emotional foundation of their relationship.
Dr. Lewin’s couples therapy approach creates a safe, supportive environment where both partners can grow, heal, and build lasting emotional intimacy.
Sex Therapy and Intimacy with Sensate Focus
Dr. Lewin also specializes in sex therapy for couples and individuals, focusing on overcoming intimacy challenges and improving sexual well-being. Whether you're facing issues such as lack of desire, performance anxiety, or struggles with physical intimacy, Dr. Lewin offers a holistic, compassionate approach to sexual health.
One of the key techniques Dr. Lewin uses in sex therapy is Sensate Focus—a structured, research-based approach that encourages mindfulness, physical touch, and mutual exploration without the pressure of sexual performance. Sensate focus helps partners reconnect physically, reigniting intimacy in a way that’s focused on pleasure, communication, and trust.
Dr. Lewin's sex-positive, nonjudgmental approach to sex therapy fosters open communication, emotional closeness, and the rebuilding of physical and emotional intimacy in relationships.
