LEANN BORNEMAN, PhD, LCSW, CST
Clinical Sexologist & AASECT Certified Sex Therapist 

Hi, I’m Leann, and I get it, growing up with ADHD can make you feel like you're constantly battling against a world that doesn’t understand you. I was there, too. The rules, the expectations, the “right” way to behave, none of it felt like it fit. Getting diagnosed with ADHD later on felt like a lightbulb moment. Suddenly, everything made sense. But that clarity also opened my eyes to the work I needed to do to unlearn the neurotypical expectations that were holding me back.

As a Clinical Sexologist & ADHD expert, I’ve dedicated my career to helping individuals and couples break free from those barriers. I focus on supporting clients in understanding their unique lens, whether or not ADHD is a factor. Together, we’ll unpack limiting expectations and set up your environment, relationships, and sex life for success. It’s about challenging the narrow definitions of what intimacy and connection should look like and shifting the focus to what actually works for you.

Whether you have ADHD or not, I specialize in helping you navigate the challenges that can arise in relationships and sexuality. If you're feeling stuck or disconnected in your intimacy, or if you’re struggling to make sense of your desires, I’m here to help. We’ll create a safe space where you can explore what makes you feel empowered, whole, and connected...whether it’s through kink, redefining pleasure, or simply embracing the true beauty of your own body and desires.

Education & Work

I hold a PhD in Clinical Sexology from the Modern Sex Therapy Institutes (MSTI) and a Master’s degree in Social Welfare from Stony Brook University. I’ve been practicing since 2019, with a specialization in the intersection of ADHD, anxiety, and sexuality. My doctoral research focused on the connection between ADHD and sexuality. In addition to my private practice, I also teach college-level psychology courses, including Introduction to Psychology, Child Development, and Human Sexuality at Farmingdale State University College.
