Online Sex Therapy & Couples Counseling in Virginia.
Feeling like roommates instead of partners? Couples therapy can change that. Improve your relationship with yourself, your partner, and your sexuality.
Whether you're in Northern Virginia, Richmond, Charlottesville, or Virginia Beach, you deserve access to a sex therapist who is genuinely trained and specialized — not just curious about the topic. I'm Dr. Anna Smith, a Licensed Psychologist and AASECT Certified Sex Therapist offering secure telehealth sessions to clients across Virginia.
All sessions are conducted via secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth — meaning you can access specialized, expert-level sex and couples therapy from anywhere in the state, on a schedule that works for you.
From emotional disconnect, desire discrepancy or sexual dysfunction, to communication breakdowns, trust issues, or life transitions, and the stuff that’s hard to talk about with a therapist who doesn’t get it. You’ve come to the right place.

Frequently asked questions
Q: Do you offer in-person sessions in Virginia?
A: All sessions are online via telehealth. This makes specialized care accessible statewide — without the cost, commute, or logistical complexity of in-person therapy.
Q: Do you take insurance?
A: I am an out-of-network provider. Many clients use their out-of-network benefits or FSA/HSA accounts. I provide superbills for insurance reimbursement upon request.
Q: What are your fees?
A: My fees for a 90-minute couple’s intake are $360, a 55-minute individual intake is $225, and all subsequent sessions (couples OR individual) are $225.
Q: Are you licensed to see clients in this state?
A: Yes. I hold licensure to practice in Virginia through PsyPact, which allows me to provide psychology services across participating states via telehealth.
Q: How long does therapy take?
A: Many clients experience meaningful shifts within 6–10 sessions. Others prefer longer-term work or even intensives. You're always in control of the pace and duration of our work together.
