Cheyenne McGuire

MS, LMFTA (she/her)

As a client-centered therapist, I offer a non-judgmental, inclusive, and empathetic environment. I strive to be warm, compassionate, and humorous, allowing my clients to explore their sexuality and other personal issues comfortably. My therapeutic approach incorporates Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). I use SFT to emphasize clients’ strengths and resources, helping them work toward their preferred future. EFT assists clients in transforming their emotional experiences to foster stronger, more secure relationships. TF-CBT supports clients in overcoming the impacts of trauma, promoting healing and resilience through evidence-based techniques. Through collaboration and encouragement, I support clients in fostering positive changes within themselves and their systemic relationships.

What You Can Expect

As a therapist, I am dedicated to working with individuals and any relational configuration that suits you. My goal is to create a safe environment rooted in an anti-oppressive and inclusive framework. I am particularly passionate about helping individuals reclaim their sexual selves. I specialize in supporting those who have experienced sexual trauma, especially those affected by purity culture. Additionally, I assist clients in reclaiming their pleasure and desire, addressing pelvic pain disorders, navigating gender, and exploring sexual identity and orientation.

My Story

Growing up in a rural conservative town in Texas, I personally experienced deconstructing purity culture and discovering my understanding of pleasure. These experiences fueled my passion for helping others find hope and facilitate change, ultimately leading me to become a sex therapist. I pursued my education at Texas Tech University (wreck ’em!), where I earned a Bachelor’s degree in Human Development and Family Studies, followed by a Master’s degree in Couples, Marriage, and Family Therapy. Interests

Interests

In my free time, I enjoy visiting local plant stores to add new treasures to my collection. I believe in living through experiences, with concerts and world travel being my favorites. After a workday, I can often be found engrossed in a romantic novel or relaxing on the couch with my dogs, watching something humorous. I have a particular love for Taylor Swift’s music, getting tattoos, and butterflies.
