Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor
Licensed Alcohol & Drug Counselor​



I specialize in sexual health, relationships, and compulsive behaviors. I work with individuals ages 18+ and couples, offering a space that is both compassionate and direct—where you can explore challenges, build insight, and create meaningful, lasting change.

I earned my graduate degree from the University of Minnesota in 2023, where I also completed my certification in sex therapy. I’ve been integrating Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) into my work since 2024, helping clients develop skills for emotion regulation, communication, and behavior change. I’m currently pursuing my PhD in Psychology at Walden University.

My work focuses on desire discrepancy, emotional disconnection, sexual pain, trauma, sexual identity, compulsive sexual behaviors, the impact of hormonal shifts such as perimenopause and premenstrual changes, and more. I am queer-allied and kink-allied, and I’m committed to creating an affirming, nonjudgmental space where you can show up fully as yourself.

I consider my approach as kind and direct.  I want the work we do together to feel approachable and rewarding.  I consider myself a partner in the process, offering guidance and suggestions while allowing you to steer the ship.  To decide if we are a good match, please consider booking a free 30 minute consultation call with me where we can discuss your goals in attending therapy, and how I might be able to assist you.

Lauren Pittman, MMFT
She/her
Pre-Licensed Therapist
PhD Candidate


I hold a Master of Marriage and Family Therapy from Converse University and am currently a doctoral candidate in Human Development and Family Science (Marriage and Family Therapy) at Virginia Tech.
 
I have experience working with individuals, couples, and families as they work through all the ups and downs that come with being a person. In my practice, I use therapy approaches aimed at promoting client agency through collaboration and creativity. You are the expert of your own life and, as such, I find it essential to create a therapeutic relationship that honors your lived experience alongside my own perspective. My work often includes a creative component, using art, music, and other outlets as an avenue for self-exploration. Together, we can work toward solutions that fit within your life.
 
I enjoy supporting clients as they explore questions about sexual orientation, attraction, and identity in a space free from pressure or assumptions. Whether someone is questioning, seeking clarity, or reflecting on how their identity has evolved over time, I aim to create a supportive environment for curiosity and self-discovery. My approach is affirming, collaborative, and guided by each client's unique experience.
I enjoy working with all aspects of sexual intimacy including clients who want to explore things such as: mismatched sexual desire, diverse relationship structures, difficulty communicating about sex, and the impact of trauma/past experiences on sexual intimacy. I believe there is no single "right" way to experience sexuality, intimacy, or attraction. My goal is to help clients better understand themselves and create sexual and relational lives that feel authentic and fulfilling.  
 
Regardless of what brings you in, I will meet you with curiosity and flexibility, adapting to your goals for our work together. I acknowledge that navigating concerns related to intimacy and sexuality can be vulnerable. I work with clients to consider issues from a holistic perspective, acknowledging the role of our unique backgrounds and relationships/systems that exist even outside of the therapy room. My goal is to create a space where you feel that you can speak the unspoken, feel the unfelt, and explore new parts of yourself/your relationship.

Sex Therapist

I hold a Master of Arts degree in marriage and family therapy. I have received advanced training in sex therapy.

Thank you for taking the time, energy and courage to consider what starting or continuing therapy may look like for you and/or someone you care about.

I work with individuals 18+, in particular women, especially those: experiencing anxiety, dealing with a sexual concern, going through a life phase/transition and those in the perinatal period (pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond). I also see couples, including those: looking to enrich their relationship, who need help with low/no sex, and those transitioning to parenthood or adjusting to new parenthood, including returning to intimacy. I enjoy working with those navigating non-traditional or alternative relationship structures, such as: swinging, open relationships, polyamory or ethical non-monogamy, and/or the kink community.

Further, I see the value of ‘relational work,’ looking not only into oneself, but offering curiosities and challenges in regards to how all of the systems in our lives impact our thoughts, feelings and behaviors, as well as who we have been, who we are and who we want to become. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, and Gottman Therapy as general therapeutic approaches

I know the power of creating the time and space for one to be seen and heard. I look forward to collaborating with you to moreso live the life you desire.
I believe a ‘good fit’ is the best predictor of a positive therapeutic experience, with the client needing to feel comfortable with the clinician, as a means to build trust and increase vulnerability to achieve one’s therapeutic goals. Please reach out for a free consultation so we can begin this conversation about what you may be looking for and if I could be of support to you.

Hannah Aase, MA LMFT
She/her
Licensed Marriage & Therapist

​I hold a Master of Arts degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and have over 10 years of experience working in the mental health field.
Therapy is a space where you can show up exactly as you are- bringing your thoughts, emotions, questions, and uncertainties. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, navigating a major life transition, or wanting more from your relationships, you do not have to figure it out alone. Taking the first step toward therapy can feel vulnerable, and I am glad you are here.

I am passionate about helping individuals and couples navigate concerns related to sexual wellness, intimacy, and relationships. I work with clients in many areas around sex and sexuality including: low or mismatched desire, difficulty communicating about sex, sexual identity exploration, arousal challanges, navigating non-traditional relationship structures, and the impact of anxiety, trauma, stress, or life transitions on sexual connection. I believe conversations about sex and intimacy deserve thoughtful, compassionate clinical support, and I strive to create a space where clients can talk openly without shame or judgment.

I also work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, identity exploration, and other personal challenges that may be impacting their overall well-being. For couples, I support partners working through communication difficulties, infidelity, conflict, and feelings of disconnection.

My therapeutic approach is rooted in compassion, authenticity, and collaboration. I draw from Person-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care, and Solution-Focused Therapy to meet your unique needs. Together, we will explore what has been happening, identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and build practical steps toward meaningful change.

I prioritize creating a therapeutic space that feels authentic, supportive, and nonjudgmental, where you feel safe enough to be honest, challenged enough to grow, and comfortable enough for humor when it feels helpful. Therapy can be hard work, but it can also be deeply empowering.

If you are considering therapy, I invite you to reach out for a free consultation so we can discuss what you are looking for and whether I may be the right fit to support you.

Picture

I hold a Master of Science in Marriage & Family Therapy from University of Wisconsin-Stout. I have extensive training and experience in working with sexual concerns of any kind. I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) which is a specialized way of working with trauma. I also have over 15 years of experience working in the mental health field.

Much of the work I do involves helping couples or individuals who, for whatever reason, are not having the kind of sex life they want to have. This could be due to: recent life transitions that have put sex at a low priority, low/mismatched desire, erectile dysfunction, early ejaculation, sexual trauma, sexual pain, and more. I also enjoy helping couples bring back sexual enjoyment who cannot quite identify why it got lost in the first place. One particular area I enjoy working with is individuals or couples who are struggling with sex after a cancer diagnosis. 
I am passionate about helping those with gender identity or sexual orientation exploration and those in non-traditional relationships (poly, swinging, open marriages, kink, etc).

Many couples also find themselves experiencing life transitions or issues unrelated to sex concerns. I can definitely help there too! I have special interest in working with: high conflict couples, couples considering divorce, and blended families. When appropriate, I utilize Emotionally Focused Therapy with couples.

I work to make everyone who enters my office feel comfortable and confident that we can work collaboratively to get to a better place for you. I am happy to answer any questions about beginning the process of therapy and also offer a free 30 minute consultation appointment to help you determine if we are a good fit.

Part of my work as a therapist has also been facilitating presentations and workshops on the topic of sexuality and sex therapy to the public, graduate students, and therapists. I have presented at the local and national level. I look forward to continue to do more of this in the future and welcome the opportunity to do so.
​
I also offer supervision, internships, and consultation to therapists. ​I am an LMFT board-approved & AAMFT approved supervisor for those seeking their LMFT and LPCC licensure.
