The Intimacy Room uniquely combines sex therapy, couples therapy, and financial therapy under one roof. This integrated approach recognizes that intimacy, communication, and money are deeply interconnected in modern relationships. Many therapy practices treat these issues separately, but The Intimacy Room addresses all three together because they influence each other in powerful ways. The practice is specifically designed for high-achieving couples and individuals in New York who want direct, strategic therapy that creates real, measurable change, not just a place to vent.
Sex therapy is a specialized form of talk therapy that addresses sexual concerns, intimacy challenges, desire discrepancies, and sexual communication between partners. It does not involve any physical contact or nudity. Sessions are conversational and take place in the same setting as any other therapy session. Common topics include low desire, mismatched libidos, performance anxiety, sexual communication, intimacy after children, and navigating sexual identity. Sex therapy helps you understand the emotional, psychological, and relational factors affecting your sexual health and develop practical strategies for improvement.
Financial therapy combines therapeutic techniques with financial awareness to address the emotional and relational dynamics of money. It is not financial planning or investment advice. Instead, it helps couples and individuals understand how financial stress, differing money values, spending habits, and wealth-related decisions impact their relationships and personal well-being. Sessions may explore topics like financial infidelity, power imbalances around money, anxiety about wealth, the emotional weight of earning or spending, and how to align on shared financial goals as a couple.
Couples therapy is a form of talk therapy where both partners work with a therapist to improve their relationship. At The Intimacy Room, sessions go beyond surface-level communication skills. Jessica works with couples on the issues that actually drive disconnection: intimacy struggles, financial differences, overwork, uneven mental load, rebuilding trust, and the patterns that keep you stuck in the same fights. Whether you are dealing with conflict, infidelity, life transitions, or simply want to deepen your bond, therapy is tailored to your specific situation. Jessica uses evidence-based approaches including Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy, combined with a direct, no-nonsense style that calls for accountability and emotional intelligence. This is not therapy where you sit and vent without direction. Jessica will challenge you, hold you accountable, and help you build the skills to show up differently in your relationship.
Yes. While The Intimacy Room specializes in couples work, Jessica also works with individuals across New York and Florida who want to explore their own relationship patterns, sexual health, financial behaviors, or personal growth. Individual therapy is especially helpful if you are preparing for a relationship, recovering from one, or want to work on yourself before or alongside couples therapy.

What We Treat

You can book a consultation directly through The Intimacy Room website. Once your request is received, you will be contacted to schedule a time that works for you. All sessions are conducted via secure telehealth for clients anywhere in New York or Florida.
In your first session, you will discuss what brought you to therapy, your relationship history, and your goals. For couples, both partners will have a chance to share their perspective in a safe, confidential environment. Jessica takes a direct approach designed to move past surface-level conversation quickly. By the end of the first session, you will have a clearer understanding of the patterns at play in your relationship and an initial plan for the work ahead. The goal is for you to leave feeling heard, understood, and motivated.
Jessica's approach is structured and direct. She identifies patterns quickly, offers clear frameworks, and helps clients move toward measurable change. She draws from several evidence-based modalities depending on your needs, including Gottman Method Couples Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), attachment-based work, narrative therapy, and mindfulness techniques. Clients who work with Jessica can expect honest feedback, actionable strategies, and a therapist who does not waste their time.
Yes. The Intimacy Room is a telehealth-only practice. All sessions are conducted via a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform. This allows you to attend sessions from any private space in New York or Florida where you can speak freely. Telehealth sessions are just as effective as in-person sessions for the types of therapy The Intimacy Room provides, and many clients find the convenience of virtual sessions helps them stay consistent with their treatment.
The Intimacy Room does not accept insurance. Sessions are self-pay, and payment is collected prior to the start of each session. Receipts (sometimes called superbills) are available upon request for clients who wish to seek reimbursement from their insurance provider for out-of-network services. Many PPO plans offer partial reimbursement for out-of-network therapy.

How It Works

Completely normal. Most people feel some anxiety before their first sex therapy session. It helps to know that sex therapy is a conversation. There is no physical component, no nudity, and no judgment. Jessica creates a safe, sex-positive environment where you can discuss sensitive topics at your own pace. Many clients report feeling relieved and much more comfortable than they expected after their first session.
Yes. Therapy is not just for relationships in crisis. Many of the most successful therapy outcomes come from couples who seek support proactively, before small issues become major problems. Think of it like maintaining your health: you do not wait until you are seriously ill to see a doctor. Therapy can help you strengthen communication, deepen intimacy, and align on goals even when things are going relatively well.
The length of therapy varies depending on your goals and the complexity of the issues involved. Some couples see meaningful progress in 8 to 12 sessions. Others benefit from longer-term work, especially when addressing deep-rooted patterns or multiple interrelated issues like intimacy, trust, and finances. Jessica will check in regularly on your progress and adjust the plan as needed. The goal is always to help you build the skills to thrive independently.
Absolutely. It is very common for one partner to be more ready for therapy than the other. You can begin with individual sessions to work on your own patterns, communication skills, and goals. In many cases, once one partner starts therapy and begins making changes, the other partner becomes more open to joining. Jessica can also help you navigate how to approach the conversation with your partner.
