Common Issues Addressed in Sex Therapy:
Sex therapy can help with a wide range of concerns, including:
- Sexual Desire Discrepancies: Mismatched libidos between partners can cause significant
relationship strain. We help couples navigate these differences and find mutually satisfying
solutions. - Erectile Dysfunction and Premature Ejaculation: These common issues can be addressed
through a combination of psychological techniques and behavioral exercises. - Pain During Intercourse: We work with individuals to identify the causes of pain and develop
strategies for more comfortable and enjoyable sexual experiences. - Body Image and Sexual Self-Esteem: Negative body image can significantly impact sexual
satisfaction. Our therapists help clients build a more positive relationship with their bodies and
sexuality. - Sexual Trauma Recovery: For those who have experienced sexual trauma, we offer
trauma-informed therapy to support healing and reclaiming a healthy sex life. - LGBTQ+ Specific Concerns: We provide inclusive, affirming therapy addressing the unique
sexual health needs of the LGBTQ+ community. - Sexual Communication: Many couples struggle to communicate effectively about sex. We
teach skills to enhance open, honest dialogue about sexual needs and desires.
What to Expect in Sex Therapy Sessions:
Your sex therapy journey begins with a comprehensive assessment to understand your
concerns, history, and goals. Subsequent sessions focus on education, skill-building, and
addressing specific challenges. Your therapist may assign “homework” exercises to practice
between sessions, helping you apply new skills and insights to your daily life.
Throughout therapy, we maintain strict confidentiality and create a judgment-free space for
exploration and growth. Whether through individual counseling or couples sessions, our
approach is tailored to your comfort level and specific needs.
