What Types of Sexual Issues Can a Sex Therapist Help With?
The different sexual and relationship challenges that sex therapists can address to support you.
Desire discrepancy
The predominant issue I see with couples is desire discrepancy. One of the partners wants to have sex more than the other.
Blocks to Intimacy
In our couple's session, we talk about what are the blocks to intimacy that the couple has. Sometimes it is just a matter of life getting in the way:
career
kids
gym
screen usage.
This is where a couple can create alone time:
date night
erotic opportunities with romance and sex in mind
Sex is like any other goal, there needs to be intention for it to happen.
Resentments
We also explore any resentments that might be hidden that the couple hasn't spoken about or even realized. And what each can offer the other for clearing. We talk about play and how to implement more of it.
Behaviors outside the marriage
In addition we look at any behaviors that might be going on outside of the marriage that detract from the essence of the relationship. Couples therapy creates the atmosphere for the couples to delve into areas that might be hard to address without the therapist there to guide.
Tools to enhance the sexual experience
We talk about being embodied rather than being too much in your head- the worst place to be during sex. Breathwork, a sense of presence, noticing everything through the five senses.- all of these are tools can be used to enhance the sexual experience.
