About Psychosexual Therapy

What Is Psychosexual Therapy?

Psychosexual therapy, or sex therapy, helps individuals and couples address sexual difficulties, intimacy issues, and relationship challenges. It provides a safe, confidential space to discuss concerns that may feel too private elsewhere.

Common issues include low libido, erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, sexual pain, and struggles with intimacy. While some problems resolve naturally, others may stem from stress, past experiences, relationship dynamics, or emotional health, making professional guidance valuable.

Unlike treatments that only target physical symptoms, psychosexual therapy takes a holistic approach, exploring emotional, relational, and psychological factors affecting sexual wellbeing. Sessions are tailored to your needs in a supportive, non-judgmental environment, helping restore confidence, strengthen relationships, and improve overall sexual health.

How Psychosexual Therapy Works

Psychosexual therapy starts with a detailed assessment to understand your concerns, medical history, relationships, and personal goals. This helps identify whether issues are psychological, physical, or both, so your therapy is tailored to you.

Sessions provide a safe, confidential space to discuss intimate concerns and often include education about sexual function to reduce anxiety and normalise experiences.

Key elements of therapy include:

  • Education: Understanding sexual anatomy, physiology, and common concerns.

  • Communication: Improving dialogue around needs, desires, and boundaries.

  • Beliefs & Attitudes: Addressing negative or limiting views about sex.

  • Sensate Focus: Exercises to increase intimacy, pleasure, and reduce performance anxiety.

  • Behavioural Strategies: Techniques like desensitisation and communication training to tackle sexual difficulties.

  • Homework: Practice strategies between sessions to reinforce progress.

  • Progress Monitoring: Regular review and adjustment of therapy to meet individual needs.

Factors like medical conditions, stress, anxiety, relationship problems, hormonal imbalances, trauma, cultural influences, or certain medications can contribute to sexual difficulties.

 

Success depends on open communication, willingness to explore and implement strategies, and developing a trusting therapeutic relationship. Individual experiences vary.
