Intimacy and Sexual Concerns
Having a fulfilling sex or intimate life that can feel as refreshing as your favorite warm brew. But what about when it’s not? Sometimes, sexual challenges or difficulties can cause us to feel disconnected from those we want to be connected with the most. In a world that sometimes still whispers “sex”, it can feel difficult to initiate conversations about sexual identity, relationships, and sexploration. This is where working with a therapist who is knowledgeable about the various aspects which sex and intimacy may entail can helpful. As a licensed clinical therapist receiving their Sex Therapy Certificate from the University of Minnesota, I am dedicated to helping you explore what intimacy, sex, and relationships can look like for you.
What is Sex Therapy?
Sex therapy is a specialized form of counseling aimed at addressing sexual concerns such as dysfunction, intimacy issues, and emotional barriers to healthy sexual relationships. It involves exploring psychological, emotional, and sometimes physical factors that affect sexual well-being. Sex therapy is not a quick fix and does not offer explicit sexual techniques outside of a therapeutic context. Instead, sex therapy with a licensed therapist creates a confidential space for individuals to improve communication, understand their sexual health, and develop strategies to enhance their sexual experiences.
