Sex Therapy for couples, partners, and individuals

Sex therapy is a specialized form of psychotherapy that focuses on addressing issues related to sexual function, intimacy, and overall sexual well-being for the individual or in the context of a relationship/couple/partnership. It involves the guidance of a trained and licensed sex therapist who helps individuals or couples navigate and overcome challenges that may be affecting their sexual health and satisfaction.

Sex therapy encompasses a wide range of concerns, including but not limited to:

1. Sexual Dysfunction: Addressing difficulties such as erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, anorgasmia, or pain during intercourse.

2. Communication:  Improving communication between partners about sexual desires, preferences, and boundaries, fostering a more open and understanding dialogue.

3. Intimacy: Exploring emotional and physical intimacy to enhance the overall connection between partners.

4. Desire Discrepancies: Managing differences in sexual desire or libido between partners.

5. Trauma or Abuse: Providing support and strategies for individuals or couples dealing with the aftermath of sexual trauma or abuse.

6. Sexual Orientation and Identity: Helping individuals navigate questions related to sexual orientation, gender identity, and any associated concerns.

7. Relationship Counseling: Addressing relationship dynamics that may impact sexual satisfaction and overall relationship well-being inside the couple/partnership.

8. Education: Providing information and education about sexual health, anatomy, and techniques to enhance understanding and comfort.

It's important to note that sex therapy is not solely focused on addressing problems; it can also be a resource for individuals or couples seeking to enhance their sexual experiences and explore new aspects of intimacy. Overall, sex therapy aims to promote a healthier, more fulfilling sexual life and contribute to overall emotional well-being.

Our current therapists employ a variety of therapeutic techniques, including talk therapy, cognitive-behavioral approaches, mindfulness, and homework exercises to address specific issues to implement sex therapy with individuals and couples. Confidentiality and a non-judgmental environment are crucial components of sex therapy, creating a safe space for individuals and couples to explore and work through their concerns.

Our current therapists are in training to become certified as sex therapists.
