Sex Therapy
It's completely normal to feel a bit hesistant or awkward about discussing intimate matters, but sex therapy is a safe space where we can work through any issues. Remember that I am here to help without judgment.
Individual and couples sex therapy is a form of therapy that focuses specifically on addressing concerns, challenges, or issues related to sexuality and sexual well-being. In this type of therapy, we will work together to confront a variety of issues in a safe and non-judgemental space.
Here are some key aspects of individual sex therapy:
The first step is to work with you to understand your sexual history, experiences, and any concerns you may have.
Open communication is crucial in sex therapy. This is an opportunity for you to express your feelings, desires, and concerns to each other in a supportive and constructive manner.
We will identify and explore specific sexual issues, such as performance anxiety, desire discrepancies, erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, pain during sex, or other concerns.
We will utilize cognitive behavior therapy to help you identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors that may contribute to sexual difficulties.
Sex therapy can be beneficial for a wide range of sexual concerns such as trauma, slow libido, sexual pain disorders, difficulty with arousal or orgasm, and any concerns related to sexual orientation or gender identity.
Discussing these issues can feel inimidating, but at Insights Counseling we will work together to decide the pace at which the issues get confronted, what a safe space feels like for each individual, and how we stop a conversation when a trigger has reached a point of overwhelm or uncomfort.
Our therapeutic relationship will be built on trust and open communication to ensure a positive and effective experience. Contact me today for more information to see if sex therapy is right for you.
