Adrienne K. Usman, LMFT

Hello there. My name is Adrienne and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist specializing in sex therapy in the state of California. Sex and intimacy can be the most challenging part of a relationship. Do you feel uncomfortable, ashamed or embarrassed when talking about sex? Do you ask yourself, “Is this normal?” or “How do I ask my partner for this specific need during intimacy?” Do you wonder, “Why is this happening to me?” I’m here to help you better understand your relationship with yourself and others, whether that be through intimacy, sex, and all the stuff that’s uncomfortable to talk about. I am here to help you process the frustration and stress that’s caused difficulty in your relationships. I value providing a welcoming, safe and non-judgmental space so that you are able to feel open with expressing however you may feel. My approach is strength-based and individualized, and I move with you at your own pace. Let’s peel back those layers of guilt, shame, stigma and taboo together. I look forward to being part of your healing journey. "Our way is not soft grass, it's a mountain path with lots of rocks. But it goes upward, forward, toward the sun." - Dr. Ruth Westheimer
