There are many subjects that fall under the banner of ‘sexual issues’ and reasons why you might consider sex counselling or therapy, some are:
- confusion about feelings of love or sexual attraction
- troubles about your sexual orientation or sexual identity
- fears around being judged or misunderstood by family, colleagues or peers
- concerns about aspects of your sexuality that are unconventional
- worries about your low or high libido or performance
- physical problems such as erectile dysfunction, painful intercourse, or premature ejaculation
Whether you are struggling with your sexual relationship with yourself or with others, talking these sexual issues through in therapy can help.
Confidential, safe & non-judgemental sexual issues counselling
There can be a lot of shame attached to how we feel about our sexuality and it is important to be able to explore this in a safe, non-judgemental and confidential environment.
Often we overlook our sexuality, either because we are embarrassed to talk about it or because we don’t consider it to be an integral part of who we are.
You may need support in “coming out” to friends and family or you may be having difficulties in your sexual relationship with a long term partner. Whatever the issue or problem, it can be uncomfortable to discuss. This is why it is important that you find a therapist you can trust.
