Sex therapist serving Largo, Florida
Karli Kucko, LPC, CST
AASECT Certified Sex Therapist
Taking the first step toward sex or relationship therapy can feel vulnerable, especially when it means exploring intimacy, desire, or the parts of yourself that feel hidden. At Karli K Counseling, therapy is a space grounded in warmth, safety, and trust, where you can bring your experiences without fear of judgment.
Karli works with individuals and couples across Largo and nearby Florida areas through secure online sessions, creating an environment that feels human, relaxed, and deeply respectful. Her trauma-informed, evidence-based approach helps clients explore emotional and physical intimacy with curiosity and compassion, not shame.
Many clients come to therapy after feeling disconnected from themselves or their partners. Together, you’ll focus on understanding how life experiences, emotional patterns, and relationship dynamics shape your connection and desire. Karli’s role is to help you create safety within that exploration after developing a therapeutic rapport so that healing can happen at your own pace.
