Couples & Relationship Sex Therapy in
Fort Worth, TX
Online Therapy throughout Washington & Texas
You love each other, but lately, it feels harder to connect. Conversations turn into misunderstandings. Desire feels mismatched or distant. You find yourselves circling the same arguments, leaving both of you feeling unheard, unseen, or alone in your relationship.
Maybe you're longing to get back to the warmth and ease you used to share, or you're wondering if it's even possible to feel close again.
It is. Couples therapy can help you understand the patterns keeping you stuck, repair hurt, communicate more openly, and reconnect emotionally, physically, and sexually.
⟡ You have the same arguments over and over without feeling resolved.
⟡ You feel unheard, misunderstood, or emotionally disconnected.
⟡ You have different levels of sexual desire.
⟡ Sex has become routine, stressful, painful, or something you're avoiding.
⟡ You want to rebuild trust after betrayal, secrecy, or emotional disconnection.
⟡ You struggle to talk about needs, boundaries, fantasies, or desires.
Every relationship experiences moments of disconnection. But when hurt starts to feel bigger than repair, or when you’ve stopped reaching for each other, it’s time to get support.
You might benefit from couples therapy if…
⟡ You feel more like roommates or teammates than romantic partners.
⟡ You want more emotional or physical intimacy.
⟡ Conflict quickly becomes defensive, overwhelming, or shut down.
⟡ Past experiences or trauma are affecting your relationship.
⟡ You're questioning whether monogamy is the right structure for your relationship.
⟡ You're exploring an open relationship, polyamory, swinging, or another form of ethical non-monogamy.
What We Can Work On Together
⟡ Communication & Conflict ⟡
Learn to slow down conflict, communicate needs clearly, listen differently, and break patterns that leave both partners feeling unheard.
⟡ Emotional Safety & Trust ⟡
Explore attachment patterns, past hurts, betrayal, and the experiences that make it difficult to feel safe or vulnerable with one another.
⟡ Sexual Desire & Intimacy ⟡
Talk openly about mismatched desire, sexual frequency, pleasure, initiation, eroticism, and what satisfying intimacy actually means to each of you.
⟡ Boundaries & Needs ⟡
Create more clarity around personal needs, relationship needs, boundaries, expectations, and what each partner requires to feel connected.
⟡ Reconnection & Play ⟡
Make room for curiosity, affection, pleasure, humor, and the parts of your relationship that may have gotten buried underneath conflict or responsibility.
Relationships Don't Have to Look One Way
Healthy relationships don't all have the same structure. I provide affirming, nonjudgmental couples and relationship therapy for people exploring or participating in consensual non-monogamy and other relationship structures.
Therapy isn't about deciding whether monogamy or non-monogamy is "right." It's about helping you create relationships that are honest, consensual, communicative, and aligned with your values.
This may include couples and partners who are:
⟡ Exploring opening their relationship
⟡ Already practicing ethical non-monogamy (ENM)
⟡ Polyamorous
⟡ In an open relationship
⟡ Swinging or exploring the swinger community
⟡ Practicing relationship anarchy
⟡ Navigating multiple partnerships
⟡ Considering whether non-monogamy is right for them
⟡ Working through jealousy or insecurity,
⟡ Creating agreement and boundaries
⟡ Navigating communication between multiple partners
Hi, I’m Cheyenne McGuire LMFT, CST
Your Fort Worth, TX Sex Therapist
I take an attachment-based and relational approach to couples and sex therapy, combining emotional depth with practical tools you can actually use outside of therapy.
We'll look at the patterns that keep you stuck—not to decide who is right or wrong, but to understand what each partner is experiencing underneath the conflict.
I may integrate Polyvagal-informed regulation, Nonviolent Communication, reflective listening, and sex therapy to help you slow down difficult conversations, communicate needs more clearly, repair hurt, and create more emotional and sexual connection.
I'm not here to take sides. I'm here to help each of you feel seen, understood, and empowered to create the relationship you want.
Whether you're working through communication struggles, mismatched desire, attachment wounds, trauma, sexual concerns, or questions about relationship structure, we'll build a path forward that feels authentic to both of you.
