Aalona Sex and Relationship Center Karen Gless, Ph.D.

Dr. Karen Gless, MFT
Marriage and Family Therapist

Hi, I'm Dr. Karen Gless, PhD, MFT, RN, a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a Certified Hypnotherapist. I have a private psychotherapy practice in San Diego, California. For over 14 years I have been specializing in sex therapy for individuals and couples. In order to help my clients I developed the Pure Pleasure Series of self-hypnosis CDs for a great sex life.

My focus is to help couples and individuals overcome their sexual problems and have satisfying, rewarding relationships. My training as a nurse helps me understand the physical and medical side of sexual problems. It is my goal to help couples enjoy all areas of their relationship.

My specialized training in human sexuality and counseling has prepared me to work with a variety of sexual problems such as, impotence, premature ejaculation, inability to have orgasms, lack of sexual desire, and others. In my counseling practice I help my clients deal with problems that arise in their relationships and in their sex lives.

Education:
I am a Marriage and Family Therapist (MFC21423), an author and a Registered Nurse with over 20 years experience in the field of medicine. I use brief therapy whenever possible.

University for Humanistic Studies, Ph.D. in Psychology
with an Emphasis in Health Sciences. University for Humanistic Studies, M.A. in Marriage, Family and Child Counseling. Arizona State University, B.S. in Nursing.
