Kink-Identified Psychologist
LGBTQIA+ Affirming Psychologist
Non-Monogamy Inclusive Psychologist
My name is Eric van der Voort, PsyD. I am a kink-identified Sex Therapist and Licensed Psychologist (CA Lic. # PSY27892) based in San Diego. I offer Individual and Couples Psychotherapy and Sex Therapy services to adults throughout California.
I specialize in providing effective treatment to sexual minority groups (kinky folx, LGBTQIA+ community members, and those in non-traditional relationship structures). If you don’t identify with any of the above, that’s OK! I also work well with those with more traditional or “vanilla” preferences. The majority of cases I take on involve one or more of the following: sexual performance issues, relationship concerns, communication problems, substance misuse, depression, anxiety, & grief. My ultimate goal is to help you live a more mindful, intimate, and rewarding life so you can experience better sex and overall wellness.
My Question to You:
Would you like to feel more empowered by your sexual and erotic desires, more attuned to your wants and needs, more confident in expressing yourself, more connected to your partner(s), or more knowledgable about how to enjoy better sex? You might even be interested in all of the above! If so, I’d love to help. Together, we will identify and address the barriers that keep you from getting more of what you want, both in and out of the bedroom.
My Commitment to You:
Not satisfied with simply helping you to feel “less bad,” you have my commitment to help you pursue pleasure, experience more moments of joy, and sustainably create a live worth celebrating. I work hard to provide the highest caliber of care using evidence-based treatments, up-to-date research-informed practices, and multidisciplinary collaboration. My clinical approach is informed by years of experience, active involvement in post-licensure education and training, as well as professional mentorship from some of the world’s leading sex therapists and authors on sex and sexuality, Marty Klein, Ph.D, LMFT, CST-S and Margaret Nichols, Ph.D., CST-S.
When you’re ready to feel more confident, to communicate more effectively, to explore your kinky fantasies, and to discover new ways of experiencing pleasure, I invite you to schedule your free Introductory Phone Call. I look forward to helping you enjoy better sex and overall wellness.
