Sex Therapy
Sex therapy is, in essence, a form of psychotherapy that is specifically focused on the emotional and behavioral issues around human sexuality. Although sex therapists often work closely with medical doctors, sex therapy does not address medical issues, which are usually treated by a gynecologist or urologist. Sex therapists never engage in sexual activity with their patients. They are counselors that help individuals or couples resolve their emotional or communication issues about sex.
Some of the problems that a person might see a sex therapist for include:
During sex therapy, individuals or couples will talk about their sexual issue and their background. It is common to be given exercises to work on outside of therapy to improve communication, intimacy, or physical response. Sometimes these exercises bring up strong emotions, and then those emotions can be discussed during therapy. The goals of sex therapy are usually to obtain reliable information about sex, to improve verbal and physical communication between a couple, and to improve sexual performance.
Because of the nature of sex therapy and how vulnerable it makes most patients feel to discuss their sex life, it is extremely important to choose a sex therapist wisely. Referrals can usually be obtained via physicians or clergy, but it is also important to seek a credentialed therapist. The American Association of Sex Educators, Counselors, and Therapists (AASECT) offers certification to sex therapists, which ensures proper training and education, as well as a strict code of ethics.
She is certified by the Sex Therapist, American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapists (AASECT) and has a state license in California.

June Martin - sex therapist in San Mateo sexually assaulted me twice after graduating high school. I went with her to her boyfriend's apartment. She admitted this truth in an email to me, which. I have as evidence. I was 17/18, she was 18/19. They got out the alcohol and got me drunk, then decided, against my will, to rip all my clothing off - strip me naked - and they forced me into a shower I did not want. They both had their hands all over me to hold me up, in the shower, as I was saying, NO! NO! NO! and pleading with them to STOP! I have never forgotten! She claimed to be my best friend, since grade 7. The 2nd time she tried to force me into a 3-some with another boyfriend. He attacked me, ripping at my blankets and clothes, slobbering all over my face, as I had been sleeping on the couch. I was screaming at him to stop when June finally snapped her fingers, calling him off, and he followed her into the bedroom. I left! That was how they woke me up at 7:30 in the morning. A year or so later, she came to town and I allowed her to stay with me for a few nights. Big mistake! She stayed the night and the next day after leaving her alone in my apartment, I came home to a sheriff's lock on my door - there's a police record of this - due to her having loud loud sex, on my living room floor, with some guy she'd picked up. I want her to apologize, and compensate me for those attacks. She refuses to talk to me. We have kept in touch over the years but when I brought this up finally with her, she sent me one email confessing and since then refuses to speak to me and has blocked my phone calls. I have known her since grade 7 and I have never shared her sleep around ways and she knew that but still insisted on trying to get me into to fall victim to her imposing sex ways. Now she ignores me, and how she hurt me, as she teaches her clients how to have better sex. I have asked her to settle with me quietly but she refuses, so I may have to take her to court. I have been trying not to do that but she leaves me no choice. What would you do in this case? I would never seek her therapy or recommend it.
