The Sex Therapist

About This Movie

So, 'The Sex Therapist' from 2018 spins a tale around Chad White, who’s a sex therapist juggling his client’s issues, but can't quite figure out his own romantic life. It’s got this sort of awkward, almost uncomfortable tone that makes you squirm in your seat, like you're peeking through a keyhole at someone else's life. The pacing feels a bit uneven, sometimes dragging in places where you'd want more energy, but then it hits you with these moments of sharp, relatable humor about intimacy and connection. There’s a rawness to the performances that make it feel genuine, even if the premise seems a bit far-fetched. It's distinctive for its unvarnished look at personal struggle in the backdrop of a profession meant to help others navigate theirs.

This film has had a limited release, which has contributed to its scarcity in collector circles. There are only a few physical copies floating around, often leading to increased interest among collectors who appreciate its unique premise and execution. It’s not a title you see often, so for those who enjoy exploring lesser-known indie films, it might pique curiosity, especially given its exploration of personal struggles within a therapeutic context.
