Individual and couples counseling

& sex therapy

Anna B. Chau, LMFT, CST

We all deserve to be our true authentic selves! 

Whether you are trying to discover or rediscover your true authentic self - where you feel fully alive, validated, and in alignment with your true self - it is about becoming more aware and learning ways to pay close attention to what is occurring inside yourself. It is about learning to trust yourself while finding ways to be intimate and vulnerable. Let’s connect and work together on that journey so we can have you work towards better connections with yourself and your relationships. 

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California #105524 and a Certified Sex Therapist (CST) with AASECT (American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapists). I am also one of the very few Asian sex therapists in the Bay Area and in California that creates a safe space for those who wish to explore a new level of understanding, self-empowerment, and awareness. My goal is to help you create a safe, supportive, open space as you explore your desires while we work together in building healthy boundaries in your relationships. I am also here to psychoeducate you on various techniques, sex toys, and alternative lifestyles you wish to explore.

As your therapist, I am here to support you as you navigate your way in finding out what love, relationships, and sex means for you and in your relationships. I will also help you explore what you need and desire as you discover your own self-worth and authentic self. I come from an approach of nurturance, non-shaming, sex-positivity, and empowerment of self as you navigate your process to understand your needs, desires, and boundaries.

My Approach

I (she, her, hers) am based in San Francisco, California and one of the few Asian sex therapists in the Bay Area. I come from a nurturing, humanistic, person-centered and sex-positive approach. I am passionate about social justice and destigmatizing mental health and sexual health in various settings and populations throughout San Francisco and the greater Bay Area. This continued work has truly inspired me in providing safe and supportive spaces for individuals, couples, and families to talk, explore, and to better understand their own lifestyle. Topics can include, but not limited to: family systems, attachment styles, intimacy issues and concerns, sexual behaviors, sexual dysfunctions, alternative relationships and/ or family structures, kinks/ fetishes, BDSM, fertility/ reproductive health, infidelity, religion & culture, identity of self, mood disorders, and also for those who are going through major life transitions. Alternative lifestyle dynamics of all genders and orientations are welcome in this space!
