What is sex therapy?
Our licensed, clinical professionals offer a safe and judgment-free environment for individuals and couples to explore their concerns, enhance their connection with their partner or partners, explore their desires, and gain confidence in their sexuality. Contact us today to get matched with a therapist!
Sex therapy never involves direct sexual experience in the therapist’s office. Through individual and couples therapy, sex therapy helps people explore and understand the origin of their sexual difficulties, provides specific knowledge about sexual function, and suggests methods to increase sexual satisfaction.
How will sex therapy help me?
A large majority of people experience sexual difficulties of some sort in their lives. These include lack of desire, difficulty reaching orgasm, problems maintaining arousal, erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, vaginal pain, and general sexual dissatisfaction. These problems can be caused by anxiety and stress, lack of sexual knowledge and/or experience, childhood trauma, relational difficulties, and physical problems. Our culture has an inexcusable lack of good basic pleasure focused sex education, which can leave people at a loss as to how to deal with these issues.
In addition, people frequently have sexual desires that are not a part of their current interactions with their partners. Sex therapy can help people come to terms with the reality of the things that arouse them and learn how to incorporate those activities into their interactions with partners or their personal experience. Sometimes this process also involves helping clients learn good dating skills and find partners.
