Sex Therapy
Sex therapy is known as Psychosexual therapy
Sexual problems are common, like erectile dysfunction, ejaculation problems, experiencing a lack of sex drive, pain during sex, and premature or delayed ejaculation to name a few.
Sexual problems are often linked to physical, emotional and psychological challenges of everyday life. While some issues might come and go, others can have long-lasting effects on various aspects of our lives, and confidence, including our relationships and enjoyment of intimacy and sex.
These problems, known as sexual dysfunction, cover a wide range of challenges that can crop up before, during, or after sexual activity. They can involve issues like lacking desire, struggling with arousal, difficulty reaching orgasm, or experiencing pain during sex. Symptoms can vary a lot from person to person and might be caused by physical, psychological, or relational factors.
For women, physical causes of sexual problems might include hormonal imbalances (such as menopause or thyroid issues), vaginal dryness, difficulty climaxing, or painful sex (ouch!). Men, on the other hand, might deal with things like erectile dysfunction, finishing too quickly, or taking a while to finish.
Psychological factors can also play a big role in sexual difficulties for both men and women. Things like stress, anxiety, depression, past traumas, or feeling negative about your body can mess with your mojo. And if you're having problems in your relationship, like not being able to talk openly or feeling disconnected from your partner, it can make things even tougher.
Recognising and dealing with sexual problems is super important for your overall well-being and happiness in your relationships. That's where sex therapy comes in. It's like having a supportive guide to help you figure out what's going on and find ways to make things better. Therapists work with you and your partner to find ways to boost your sexual health and intimacy.
Experiencing sexual problems is just a normal part of life, and reaching out for help is a big step toward fixing things. Putting off getting support can just make you feel more alone or embarrassed, it is okay to ask for help. There are loads of options out there, like sex therapy, which can help you understand what's going on and find ways to fix it.

Our team of sex therapists offers professional services to support individuals and couples in overcoming these challenges.

Sexual problems can also put a strain on intimacy within relationships. You might worry that your partner isn't interested anymore, or you might feel pressure to perform sexually, which can make things even more stressful. Painful sex can even lead to avoiding intimacy altogether, which can affect how close you feel to your partner.
Sexual problems can be pretty complex and have a big impact on you and your relationships. But seeking help through sex therapy can be a game-changer. It's all about communicating, understanding what's going on, and being willing to ask for help to understand, learn new tools and enjoy sex again.
