AASECT Certified Sex Therapist
Diplomate-Fellow in Medical Psychology, FMICPP
National Board Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist
Registered Yoga and Meditation Teacher, RYT
A Certified Sex Therapist is for the treatment of disorders such as inhibited sexual desire, lack of arousal, painful intercourse, inability to establish or maintain an erection, inability to orgasm or premature ejaculation. These are some of the more common reasons couples seek counseling from a sex therapist.
These problems occur frequently among many peoply. A person should not have to feel embarrassed or uncomfortable talking about sex. Sometimes just learning and being educated about all the facets of the problem lead the way to developing quick, simple and logical solutions about what is happening - either with yourself as an individual, or quite frequently, as a couple.
Some people feel the need to come to counseling by themselves. It seems however, that sex therapy works best when a couple enters into treatment together. Often therapy results in greater levels of intimacy, much deeper than a couple has ever experienced in their relationship, or perhaps even their lives!
