What Is Sex Therapy?

Sex therapy is a form of talk therapy that addresses sexual issues affecting emotional and relational well-being. It can help individuals and couples understand their sexual concerns, improve intimacy, and strengthen communication. Therapy is respectful, non-judgmental, and tailored to your unique experiences and goals.

What to Expect from Sex Therapy

Sex therapy begins with an initial assessment, where we gather information about your sexual health, relationship history, and present concerns. During these sessions, we’ll work with you to identify barriers, such as anxiety or trauma, and help you set achievable goals for improvement. Our therapists use techniques like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based strategies to address issues and create lasting change.
