I've dealt with intimacy issues and have seen a sex therapist as well as therapist who have not been specifically designated as sex therapists, but have had traditional orientations. My current therapist who is not a sex therapist, but is a regular psychologist has been more helpful with my intimacy and relationship issues than the sex therapist was because of our relationship and because we've been able to discuss my underlying issues that led to my issues with sex. I'd encourage you think beyond a sex therapist as your only option for happiness or a solution to the problem.
