Austin Relationship & Sex Therapy

Hi, I'm Amy Palmer, M.Ed., LPC, CST.

I’m a relationship and certified sex therapist in Austin, Texas, helping individuals and couples reconnect with themselves, their relationships and their intimacy.

This work is personal to me.

I've built a career, raised kids, navigated co-parenting, supported a spouse in a high-performance career, and experienced the shame and judgment that can come with sexuality and relationships that don't fit someone else's expectations. I know what it's like to juggle demanding responsibilities while trying to stay connected to the people you love.

That's why I'm passionate about this work.

My goal isn't to tell you what your relationship should look like. It's to help you create one that reflects your values, your needs, and the life you want to build.

I believe my approach is warm, collaborative, and direct. I'll help you better understand the patterns keeping you stuck, strengthen communication and intimacy, and navigate challenges with practical tools and evidence-based therapy.

I've completed 90 hours of specialized training in sexual health through the Sexual Health Alliance, an AASECT-approved training program, completed Gottman Method Levels 1 & 2, and continue advanced training through AASECT. This specialized education allows me to provide evidence-based care for relationship challenges, intimacy concerns, desire differences, sexuality, and consensual non-monogamy.

If you're looking for a therapist who understands both the complexity of modern relationships and the realities of everyday life, I'd be honored to work with you.
