Many couples struggle with issues related to sex and intimacy.
Sex Therapy for individuals and couples in charming Midtown Sacramento, Old-Town Fair Oaks, and San Diego, CA.
Our convenient online sessions are available for all California residents.
No matter the specific issue, sex therapy helps you get reconnected with yourself and develop a more secure sexual connection with your partner.
Many of our clients reach out because they’re wrestling with deep questions such as:
“Will I ever feel comfortable talking about or initiating sex with my partner?”
“Is there something wrong with me?
"Am I enough?”
"Can sex feel fun and positive again?”
Because sex and intimacy can feel so important in our lives, relationships, world and society, we can benefit from talking about it in both individual or relationship counseling.
Sex issues are more common than you think, and talking openly about them can be difficult.
We put a lot of emotional value on pleasing our partner, and it might be hard to talk about things that are meaningful to us because we are afraid to hurt their feelings or make things worse if we bring it up. However, sex therapy allows couples to work on these issues and have an open (and less hurtful) discussion when supervised by a sex therapist.
