Hello and welcome to The Connection Couch!
Healing Shame, Pain, anxiety, trauma, and Disconnection ā So You Can Thrive in Love and Pleasure
Online Sex Therapy Throughout Scottsdale, AZ & UT
You donāt have to face this alone ā healing starts with one gentle, free conversation.
If youāve been feeling disconnected from yourself or your partner ā struggling with sexual trauma, anxiety, shame, pain, or intimacy challenges ā you are not alone.
Many of my clients come to me feeling:
Shut down or anxious about sex and intimacy
Confused or ashamed about their sexual desires, body, or identity
Disconnected from their spouse or partner, longing for closeness but unsure how to get it back
The good news? Healing is possible.
With the right support, you can move past shame, rebuild trust in your body, and create the intimate connections you long for. If this sounds like you,
You are worth investing in yourself and your relationship.
I am so glad that you are here! Look around and contact me here if you want to work with me or schedule a free, no-pressure consultation call to see if we are a good fit, and discover how sex therapy can transform your life.

Why work with me?
Iām Holly ā
I have been providing mental health care in Scottsdale, Arizona, and Salt Lake City, Utah, for the past five years.
Iām a Licensed Professional Counselor, EMDR-Certified, and AASECT Sex Therapist (in training). My passion is helping people heal from sexual shame, trauma, pain, and disconnection, so they can build relationships that feel safe, joyful, and deeply connected.
I provide a sex-positive, queer- and kink-affirming space, welcoming all identities, orientations, and relationship styles.
I combine evidence-based practices like EMDR and EFT with trauma-informed, compassionate care ā so your healing journey feels safe, personalized, and empowering.
My work has been featured in HuffPost, Stylistās Strong Women, Well Beings News, and Voyage Phoenix, where Iāve shared insights on sexual wellness, intimacy, and healing.
Outside of my work, Iām a travel enthusiast, paddleboarder, horror fan, child-free auntie, and in a happy 6-year interracial relationship. I bring both professional expertise and authentic compassion into my work with clients. If you like what you see so far,
