A sex therapist helps people with sexual problems.

Lots of people have a problem with sex at some point in their life. Some people can help themselves. For others, sexual problems can cause a lot of distress and unhappiness.

A sex therapist can help people with various sexual problems, including:

• lack of desire
• difficulty having an orgasm
• pain during sex or inability to have penetrative sex
• difficulty getting or keeping an erection (erectile dysfunction)
• premature ejaculation or other ejaculation problems

For more information, read about male sexual problems and female sexual problems.

A sex therapist will listen to you describe your problems and assess whether the cause is likely to be psychological, physical or a combination of the two.

Each therapy session is confidential. You can see a sex therapist by yourself, but if your problem affects your partner as well, it may be better for you both to attend.

Talking about and exploring your experiences will help you get a better understanding of what is happening and the reasons. The therapist may also give you exercises and tasks to do with your partner in your own time.

Sessions usually last for 50 to 60 minutes. The therapist may advise you to have weekly sessions or to see them less frequently, such as once a month.

A proper sex therapist does not sit in on your bedroom sessions. Psychosexual therapy instead functions like other forms of talk therapy. Your therapist is there to listen, reflect back, and ask insightful questions. They help you see things in a new light, and to process experiences you couldn’t navigate alone.

If you are attending sex therapy as a couple, your therapist also helps you to communicate, and decide on new ways forward together. You might be given sex therapy exercises to do betwen appointments.

Sex counselling is done to ease out tension between two sexually active partners or if one person is less interested in sex thatn the other.

Most sex problems have a psychological link. In some cases it’s just that our struggles with intimacy are affecting our moods. In others, the root of the issue can be mental and emotional.

We also have to admit to a problem in its entirety if we want to find real solutions. Talking to a counsellor helps you get clear on just how much a physical issue with sex is also affecting other areas of your life.

And sex therapy can also be practical, helping you set and achieve goals for things like physical checkups and self-care, as well as deal with co-occuring psychological issues like addictions or anxiety.

The benefits of sex counselling

• be more in tune with yourself, your body, and your sexual desire
• stop the endless feelings of shame and guilt
• learn better ways of communicating about sex and intimacy
• find ways forward in life and in the bedroom
• take away practical tools to cope with your thoughts and emotions.
