It’s time to get closer.
I’m Ciera Coyan, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and sex therapist. I offer online therapy for LGBTQ+, neurodivergent, and non-monogamous couples and relationships — based in Olympia, serving clients across Washington.
You’re here because you’re ready to feel closer — to experience more connection, excitement, and pleasure in your relationship.
I work with clients who want to build relationships that feel true to who they are. I don’t believe there’s one “right” way to love or connect. Instead, I meet my clients exactly where they are — with authenticity, curiosity, and zero judgment. Together, we look at what brings you closer and what keeps you apart. Then we figure out where you want to go, and how to get there — as a team.

Curious about what sex and relationship therapy is really like?
You might feel caught in the same arguments again and again. You could be avoiding the hard conversations altogether. Maybe your sex life feels off, but you don’t know how to talk about it, let alone how to change it. Whatever’s keeping you stuck, you’re tired of feeling disconnected and ready for things to change.
In therapy with me, we’ll start by understanding the patterns that keep you from feeling close. We’ll build communication that helps everyone speak and really be heard. We’ll look at accountability, so each partner can understand their role in those patterns, and we’ll practice empathy, so you can see each other’s best selves again.
Sex can feel especially vulnerable to talk about, even in therapy. I make it safer, easier, and sometimes even fun. With my training in sex therapy, I offer specific tools and practices to help partners reconnect physically and emotionally. Just as importantly, I help clients explore and express their authentic, erotic, embodied selves, without shame.
Whatever your relationship goals, I believe you can have the kind of connection you’ve only imagined. Together, we’ll uncover what helps each partner thrive and learn the tools to make that vision real.
You don’t have to keep feeling distant or disconnected. Therapy is a space to heal, reconnect, and rediscover the closeness you’ve been missing — emotionally, physically, and relationally.
If you’re ready to begin, I’d love to help you find your way back to each other.
