Sex Therapy

What is Psychosexual Therapy?

Psychosexual therapy is the new name for Sex Therapy. The change in name shows recognition of the part our minds play in sexual desire.

Working with qualified sex therapists offers heterosexual and same sex clients the opportunity to talk openly and honestly about any sexual problems and insecurities. But, as with relationship counselling, you have a choice to come with your partner or on your own.

Sex therapy can help with problems such as:

• Intimacy
• Erectile dysfunction
• Premature ejaculation
• Lack of sexual desire
• Penetration difficulties on intercourse
• Vaginismus
• Anorgasmia
• Pain on intercourse (dyspareunia)
• Phobias resulting from early physical or sexual abuse
• Sexual aversions
• Sex addiction
• Infrequent sex

Your therapist will take a psychosexual history and might set specific tasks and exercises that you complete at home.
