PSYCHOSEXUAL THERAPY

I am currently pursuing training in psychosexual therapy at the Contemporary Institute of Clinical Sexology, where I am enrolled in a certification program focused on addressing sexual issues and dysfunction. My expertise lies in assisting individuals and couples in tackling and resolving matters pertaining to sexual health, intimacy, and relationships. My goal is to create a secure and welcoming environment for clients to discuss their concerns regarding sexual dysfunction, relationship difficulties, or emotional obstacles to intimacy.

How does Psychosexual Therapy differ from traditional Therapy?

Psychosexual therapy differs from traditional therapy in its specialized focus and approach:

Focus on Sexual Health: While traditional therapy addresses a broad range of emotional, psychological, and relational issues, psychosexual therapy specifically targets sexual health and intimacy challenges.

Specialized Training: I am trained in sexual anatomy, physiology, and dysfunctions, and am equipped to handle complex sexual issues with expertise.

Behavioural Techniques: This therapy often includes practical exercises or "homework" to be done privately, aimed at rebuilding intimacy and addressing specific sexual concerns.

Medical Collaboration: Psychosexual therapy may involve collaboration with medical professionals to address physical or hormonal factors affecting sexual health.

Structured Approach: It uses a more directive and structured methodology, often combining psychoeducation, cognitive-behavioural techniques, and mindfulness.
