What Is Sex Therapy?
Sex therapy involves talking to a qualified sex counselor or sex therapist about sexual concerns.
Sex therapy is a specialized form of psychotherapy. It emphasizes understanding of the psychological and physical causes of sexual difficulties. Increasing information abut sexually enhancing intimate interactions, improving communication skills and improving sexual functioning.
What is involved in Sex Therapy?
Sex therapy is typically of brief duration if the sexual concerns are uncomplicated. However, longer therapy may be needed if medical factors or emotional issues, including relationship problems, complicate the picture.
Typically, Sex Therapy involves couple therapy because both partners are affected by sexual concerns. Homework is often given as an adjunct to therapy, because it helps people to work on their difficulties between sessions and it speeds up the therapy process. These assignments are commonly experiential exercises, written assignments, bibliotherapy (reading relevant books) or watching appropriate sex educational materials.
Talking about sex or sexual issues isn't comfortable for all clients. Rest assured that the counselor is trained to make this as comfortable and as easy a discussion as possible.
Gaining confidence in talking about sex can uncover and help to alleviate strains you may not have known existed with yourself or your partner.
