Sex therapy is where the fun begins!
It gives you a forum, either individually or with a partner, to explore your sexuality. Rarely do we have the opportunity to dive in and explore our sexuality in all its seemingly contradictory and nuanced complexity.
Do you have sexual fantasies, interests, preferences, or desires that amuse, confuse, or concern you? Do you want to explore the deeper meaning of your fantasies?
Like dreams, our sexual fantasies can often provide us with clues into deeper themes in our lives and relationships, for example, themes related to power, control, fear, shame, desire, lust, and acceptance.
Sex therapy is also where the healing happens.
Sex therapy is an excellent opportunity for couples and individuals to learn about themselves sexually, become educated and increase their knowledge about sexuality, and have open conversations about how to increase intimacy and add variety and experimentation to maximize their sexual satisfaction.
Often, when there is a sexual issue, problem, or impasse, we can’t help but think there is something wrong with us, that some part of us is defective or broken. These feelings create shame, embarrassment, frustration, and hopelessness; we often withdraw and isolate as a response.
Sexual difficulties can be related to issues of low desire, mismatched libidos, desire discrepancy, erectile unpredictability, problems with orgasm, painful sex, or the negative impact of sexual abuse or other traumas on our ability to feel safe in our bodies and experience pleasure and sexual satisfaction.
Sex therapy is a forum to talk openly about these issues and the negative impact they might be having on your relationship while gaining the education, insight, and skills to alleviate the negative emotions and overcome the challenges.
Other problems can interfere with a healthy sex life.
