Anxiety doesn’t just stay in your head—it can disrupt your relationships, intimacy, and even your sexual response. In this powerful and eye-opening episode of Dr. Jeff Talks About Sex and Intimacy, board-certified Advanced Practice Urology Clinical Nurse Specialist Dr. Jeffrey Albaugh is joined by expert guest Alycia Williams, licensed professional counselor and certified sex therapist, to dive deep into the hidden ways anxiety impacts emotional and physical closeness.

Together, Dr. Jeff and Alycia unpack how anxiety shows up in the bedroom—interfering with desire, arousal, and communication—and how performance anxiety, overthinking, and fear of vulnerability can slowly erode connection and intimacy. Whether you're in a long-term partnership or just starting to explore intimate relationships, you'll gain practical, compassionate insights into how to rebuild emotional safety and rediscover pleasure.

This episode offers real, supportive strategies to help manage anxiety, increase sexual confidence, and improve your relationship with both your partner and yourself. Understanding the anxiety-intimacy connection is the first step toward healing—and we’re here to walk that path with you.
