Alisa Kriegel, PhD is a psychologist with a private practice in New York City, working with adults and couples. She is on a mission to give people permission to seek pleasure and believes everyone deserves to experience incredible, mind-blowing sex.

Her debut memoir, From Sexless Marriage to Sex Goddess, tells the story of her own transformation. After twenty-five years in a marriage with little intimacy, her husband’s revelation of an affair with a man upended their life together. That rupture sparked a journey of self-discovery that pushed Kriegel to confront shame, challenge old beliefs, and claim her desires.

She writes candidly about solo exploration, dating, nontraditional relationships, and even her first visit to a sex club, while also navigating divorce and co-parenting. Interweaving past and present, she explores how childhood lessons about shame and a pragmatic marriage shaped her, and how she ultimately redefined intimacy, love, and self-worth.

Her story is both personal and universal, inviting readers to embrace vulnerability, authenticity, and pleasure. Kriegel also hosts the podcast Let’s Talk About Sex, Really and lives in New York, NY.
