PORNOGRAPHY AND SEX ADDICTIONS

Also called out of control sexual behaviors.  Whether you are a purveyor of pornography or other problematic sexual compulsions, or are a partner of someone with out of control sexual behaviors, sex therapy provides the tools, course of action, treatment and space to heal.

LOSS OF LIBIDO

Lack of arousal or sexual desire, not feeling pleasure, inorgasmia, not feeling turned on by your partner, stress, trauma that prevents you from deepening sexual intimacy, dread of sex, are only some reasons why people experience a loss of libido.  Sex therapy provides you space to understand your-self.  With knowledge and therapeutic support you can have a satisfying sex life.

MENOPAUSE AND AGING

As we move through the life span with or without a partner our sexuality will change.  Often people find themselves caught in a rigid pattern of seeing sex through one lens and overlook all the ways we are sexual.  Sex therapy helps you, individually, or with your partner to broaden your experience of aging and healthy sexual wellness.

YOU WANT A BETTER SEX LIFE

Healthy sexuality does not miraculously appear. Western culture does not promote healthy sexual exploration and we have many years of false information and myths to deconstruct in sex therapy.  But imagine if your fantasies were not problematic, that you knew your sexual blueprint and could talk to your partner, or if you didn't have to sneak around about your turn-on's for fear of hurting others.  Neat, huh?
