At Steffen Counseling Services, we are proud to share that our practice owner, Brittany Steffen, LMFT, has officially been approved as an AASECT Certified Sex Therapy Supervisor. This represents years of advanced education, clinical experience, and dedication to helping both clients and clinicians deepen their understanding of sexual health and intimacy.
What Is AASECT Sex Therapy?
The American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors, and Therapists (AASECT) is the leading professional body that certifies experts in the fields of sex therapy, education, and counseling. AASECT certification marks a gold standard in sexuality training, ethics, and client-centered care.
AASECT-certified sex therapists help clients address a variety of sexual and relational concerns, including:
Desire or arousal differences
Sexual pain, trauma, or shame
Body image challenges
Intimacy and communication difficulties
Identity, orientation, and gender expression exploration
Working with an AASECT-certified provider ensures that therapy is grounded in inclusivity, evidence-based practice, and respect for diverse experiences.
What Does It Mean to Be an AASECT Supervisor?
As an AASECT Certified Supervisor, Brittany is now qualified to mentor and supervise other therapists working toward their AASECT certification in sex therapy. Supervision is a critical piece of AASECT’s certification process, designed to help developing sex therapists integrate theory, ethics, and clinical practice with depth and confidence.
Supervisees benefit from:
Case consultation focusing on complex sexual and relational issues
Insightful feedback to support clinical growth and therapist identity development
Discussions grounded in trauma-informed, intersectional, and sex-positive frameworks
Guidance through AASECT certification requirements and professional milestones
