Megan is truly a gem! I consider her to be the #1 dating and sex expert in the Bay Area and…read moreprobably beyond! In a few words, her sessions are deeply empowering, fun, and healing. I found her website over a year ago when I was going through difficulty in my dating life. I bought her package deal and in a few months time, I felt empowered, newly in touch with my feminine energy, and ready to have great experiences. Megan is extremely warm, empathetic, and knowledgeable. Everything she shares is always heartfelt and tailored to the individual. She has equipped me with the tools I need to succeed in my romantic life. Moreover, her sessions are always a blast because of the Somatica element. Her sessions go far beyond what a person can gain in traditional talk therapy settings. She also offers supportive coaching during Covid, which goes a long way!

I am extremely grateful for the therapy I received from Megan. I think I speak for a lot of people…read morewhen I say that having an open, honest discussion about relationships, love, and sex can be very difficult. Personally, there is a lot of intricate and sensitive emotions that come with these topics, so finding someone I trust is extremely important. I'm very glad that I found Megan because she provided a non-judgemental and soothing environment for us to work together. It didn't take long for me to open myself up and trust her. Megan is experienced and wise, and throughout the course of our sessions, she also proved herself to be someone who can adapt on the fly. While she possesses a wide range of great qualities, I believe that her strongest attribute is her empathy - she is extremely skilled in immersing in the "world" of others and emerging with unique perspectives to offer. This is a hallmark trait of a very good therapist. Megan is also someone who has the ability to sit with her own emotions - good and bad - and steer the course of her thoughts in the most optimal way possible. These are rare qualities that many of us have yet to master (or even realize we struggle with). All of this is to say, she lives the truth that she speaks. If you are someone who is considering therapy, I highly recommend reaching out to Megan. You will not be disappointed!

My husband and I have been together for more than forty years, and for the last thirty, we have…read morebeen dealing with conflict over sexual intimacy. We tried personal counseling, we tried marriage counseling, and our difficulties only persisted. This year, my husband and I decided once again to seek help. This time, we wanted to find a therapist who could listen to both sides of the sexual conflict that had become a cancer on our marriage, and somehow guide us to a place that would change our sexual relationship to the loving satisfaction we both sought. We found Dr. Anya-a sex and intimacy coach. Our previous attempts at personal and marriage counseling--private sessions with a therapist and couples communication classes through Kaiser--never addressed our fundamental difficulty which seemed to arise from a sex-life that was contentious. This led to a reluctance on the part of my husband to trust therapy to address our conflict. However, at his wits' end, my reluctant husband finally agreed to try seeing Dr. Anya. We warily scheduled a free consultation to discuss our issues and see whether she could help. After describing her methods, Anya reported that with Homeplay--exercises devised to help set new behavior patterns and sensitize partners to their mutual goals--couples were usually able to achieve improvement within six or more sessions. We decided to go for it as we had nothing to lose having tried everything we could think of on our own. Yes, professional guidance is expensive, but in our experience, it was completely worth it. With Anya's guidance, we learned how to open up to each other and address our issues for the first time. We learned how to navigate the differences in our case that are often fundamental to male and female arousal, and that made it easier to understand why we could never seem to get on the same page. Our goal was to break the deadlock we had found ourselves in and to increase our intimacy and have more joy from sex. With Anya's guidance, we feel we have succeeded in re-establishing the connection we had lost. We have rediscovered the ability to address and satisfy our mutual desires. It has not been a particularly simple or easy process to break the destructive cycle that we had found ourselves in after all those years, but Anya has given us tools to use going forward. Finally, it's reassuring knowing that we can always contact Anya for help and further guidance if we find ourselves falling back into old, destructive behaviors.

I have no sense of judgement only encouragement and acceptance when talking about deeply personal things.

I would definitely recommend her especially if there is anything you're experiencing or struggling with in your sex life or with intimacy that would benefit from an outside perspective or from someone who knows and supports many ways of living by yourself and others. I have greatly loved and appreciated her involvement and support for myself personally coming out of a relationship, being single, and getting in a new relationship with my partner while also coming into acceptance with who I am both sexually and my gender presentation fluidity. I don't know if many other people in the field that have experience with or can be understanding of and support me across that many aspects, so hopefully this helps anyone making their decision.

He was so easy to communicate with, professional, responsive and super mellow. I like that he has a mix of techniques to choose from and he intuitively knows what your body needs. For me there was a lot of stretching and clearing of some stuck energy. It's $200 for 70 minutes, which is pretty on par with a spa...and he travels a large radius for clients, so you're in luck. Ya gotta book a little in advance though.
