She is supportive, professional, creative, insightful, and when offering her perspective, is always aware of and honoring the client's perspective. She provides a very supportive and accepting context for what I consider somewhat charged subject matter. I've experienced her ability and capacity to create a safe accepting context so that I could be extremely vulnerable in her presence and feel completely safe about it. I consider that a remarkable capacity. The one thing that impacted me the most with her is that she helped me uncover and accept that whatever else I am in the world, I am also a sexual being which manifests differently in every individual. For that I am very grateful to her. I very strongly recommend her.

Me and my wife (a relationship of 37 years!) had finally hit a breaking point and we sought out a counselor. We tried two before Claudia and had the take away that one offered little insight and merely a place to rant, while the other found one of us "wrong," taking sides which did little to promote healing. Claudia was different -- instilling insights in every session and suggesting courses of action for each of us which were both challenging and transformational. I recommend Claudia highly and recognize that what she brings to the table is uniquely valuable.

She helped me pinpoint the causes of trauma stemming from my childhood and address my deep-rooted insecurities that have been plaguing me for years. She helped me not only get back into dating confidently, but also held my hand through an entire relationship, helped me navigate difficulties, and most importantly helped me realize that it was time to leave the relationship. Her empathy is unmatched and I know she genuinely cares about me and shows enthusiasm when I succeed. I bought her 8-session package and I can confidently say that it was one of the most important investments I've ever made in my life, undoubtedly. I still have sessions remaining from the first package too. I highly highly recommend her.

I am so happy that I did this work, and Dr. Namita was everything I could have asked for in a therapist. She made me feel comfortable right away and gave me exercises every session to work through some things on my own time.

She used breathing and mindfulness techniques in our sessions to further enhance the experience. My sex life has changed dramatically because of her. The way I can now tap into my own pleasure and be present with my partner is all due to Dr. Namita's sessions. She helped me find my voice. For this I will be forever grateful. Thank you, Dr. Namita!

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.
