Sex Therapy
What is Sex Therapy?
Finding Deeper Connection: Exploring Sex Therapy
Our erotic lives are deeply intertwined with our overall well-being and the health of our intimate relationships. When sexual issues create distance or distress, sex therapy offers a path towards understanding, healing, and greater connection.
In sex therapy, we'll work together to explore your sexual functioning, desires, needs, communication, and intimacy, with the aim of fostering growth and satisfaction. Through open conversation and various tools, including education about sex and the body, and practical exercises, you can gain valuable insights and develop new skills.
Areas Where Sex Therapy Can Provide Support:
- Opening Lines of Sexual Communication: Difficulty talking about sex can create significant barriers. Sex therapy offers a safe, confidential space to discuss your desires, concerns, and challenges without judgment. You'll learn effective ways to communicate openly and honestly, understand potential communication blocks, and gain knowledge about sexual anatomy and pleasure to enhance intimacy.
- Overcoming Sexual Challenges: Whether you're experiencing erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, difficulty reaching orgasm, painful sex, or mismatched desires, sex therapy can help you explore the underlying causes and develop strategies for change.
- Healing from the Impact of Sexual Trauma: For survivors of sexual abuse or trauma, sex therapy can be an important part of the healing journey, providing support in processing experiences and addressing any resulting sexual difficulties.
- Gaining Clarity Around Sexual Compulsivity: Sex therapy can help individuals struggling with compulsive sexual behaviors develop greater self-awareness, self-compassion, and mindfulness to foster healthier sexual choices and relationships.
- Understanding and Affirming Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity: Sex therapy offers a supportive space to explore your identity, gain education about different aspects of sexuality and gender, and navigate the challenges of living authentically in a heteronormative world.
- Exploring Relationship Dynamics: For couples considering or navigating non-monogamous relationships, sex therapy provides guidance on communication, boundaries, and maintaining a strong and respectful connection while exploring different relationship structures.
Please Note: Sex Therapy does NOT involve or include involving the therapist in any sort of sex or sexual acts.
