About Carita Anderson, Ph.D

Almost all of life’s best moments, hardest moments, struggles, achievements, ups, and downs have to do with our relationships. 

Your relationships with others, whether they be sexual, romantic, or platonic. Your relationship with yourself. Your relationship with sex & pleasure.

Your relationship with the world around you. Your relationship with your parents, your trauma, your body… the list goes on.

With such a complex and intricate web of relationships and interactions, it can be hard to pinpoint the root of an issue you’re experiencing. That’s where I can help you. 

I use a combination of cognitive-behavioral, interpersonal, and psychodynamic therapy to help you understand what’s working for you, what isn’t, and what you can do to change, cope, and move comfortably through the world. 

As a Licensed Psychologist and AASECT Certified Sex Therapist, I will work to help you understand your emotions & behaviors and how they relate to the intricate web of relationships life weaves for us.

I am dedicated to providing a space for people of all sexualities, races, genders, and backgrounds to be vulnerable and safe exploring their identities and relationships. My practice is dedicated to practicing anti-racism, LGBTQ+ informed counseling, and offering a safe space for monogamous, non-monogamous, and polyamorous couplings. 

I provide help & guidance for couples, individuals, and groups struggling with:

• Depression & anxiety disorders 
• Sexual pain (physical & emotional)
• Relationship issues
• Life transitions (divorce, death, job loss, etc)
• Sexual functioning & sexual education
• Compulsive sexual behavior
• Sex-positive parenting
• And more

When I first opened my practice 10 years ago, I had one goal in mind:

“I want to help everyone move through the world comfortably and confidently.”

Are you ready to feel comfortable in your body, your relationship, your world? Contact me today.
