Hi, I’m Kim Ronan

For the past decade, I’ve helped high-achieving individuals & couples take charge of their mental health and enhance their intimate connections.

As a trained sex therapist, I specialize in helping people break down emotional barriers, overcome shame, and develop deeper connections with themselves and with their partners.

I firmly believe in tailoring my therapeutic approach to each client.

That’s why I specialize in a customized and personalized approach to therapy, using tools and training from Sex Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Trauma Stress Studies, and the Gottman Method… just to name a few.

Together we can…

Build Trust

With Consistency, Care, and Commitment

In sex and intimacy therapy, trust is essential. My career has been dedicated to helping clients overcome barriers in their intimate relationships by creating a space where they feel safe, heard, and understood. With a deep commitment to confidentiality and respect, we’ll work together to rebuild trust in yourself and your partner, allowing you to explore your desires and strengthen your connection.

Set Goals

At a Pace that Feels Right for You

In sex and intimacy therapy, we’ll set clear, achievable goals tailored to your desires and needs. Whether it’s improving communication, overcoming intimacy challenges, or addressing specific sexual concerns, we’ll work together to create a plan that feels right for you. Progress may not always be linear, but each step will bring you closer to the fulfilling sexual connection you deserve.

Settle Immediate Stressors

By Uncovering Blocks to Connection

Whether it’s stress, anxiety, or past trauma affecting your libido and your connection with your partner. These challenges often get in the way of the fulfilling intimacy you deserve. In therapy, we’ll explore how emotional and psychological barriers are impacting your sexual well-being. Together, we’ll address these challenges, providing tools to help you feel more present, connected, and confident in your intimate relationships.

So you can...

Enjoy the sex you’ve always dreamed of.

Career & Credentials

I studied Psychology before receiving my Masters in Social Work (MSW) and Masters in Public Health (MPH) from UCLA.
Here I spent time researching Anxiety Disorders and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder before graduating and beginning fieldwork.
I am an active member of AASECT (American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapist).
I have also provided therapy and crisis counseling alongside law enforcement. Here I was able to develop a unique perspective as a therapist, gaining deep insight into the human condition across all ages and circumstances.
I also trained with the FBI in crisis negotiation, adding to my depth of experience managing individual and interpersonal crisis and conflict.
Outside the field, I spent 2 years training therapists and health providers in suicide prevention and was involved in policy committees to improve the delivery of mental health services within LA County.
After 14 years of fieldwork, I transitioned into private practice, where I leverage my experience to offer a personalized, custom approach to therapy for individuals and couples.

Together, we’ll work on building trust, setting goals, and addressing the barriers that are keeping you from having the fulfilling, passionate intimate connections you deserve.

When I’m not in session…

Born and raised in LA, you can count on me to know all the local hotspots for food and people watching. I currently live with my partner and dogs, and we’re always on the lookout for a new adventure.

As a sex and intimacy therapist, I’m passionate about the power of self-discovery and growth in all areas of life. The human experience, particularly around intimacy and connection, is complex and fascinating. I’m always inspired by the incredible transformation that happens when we invest in ourselves, our relationships, and our sexuality.

I also stay actively engaged in consultation with peers, ongoing education, and research on mental health and sexual health to ensure I bring the best insights and practices to my work with clients.
