Sexual Health and Sex Therapy
Male Sexual Health
Do you have concerns about reduced sexual desire, erectile dysfunction, or premature/rapid ejaculation? Nearly 50% of men experience these issues. Research shows that these concerns are responsive to psychological interventions.
Are you losing hope that things will improve?
Ben had strong doubts about talking with a
psychologist. He thought his erectile dysfunction was strictly a medical issue and would only respond to medications. He also doubted that a therapist could help him in a timely fashion.
During ten sessions with me, Ben learned skills that gave him back control of his body and his sex life. He and his partner also became more knowledgeable about their sexual likes and dislikes. They stopped feeling anxious before sexual encounters, and their overall communication improved.

Andre's Story
Andre was having problems with reaching orgasm too quickly. He became embarrassed when this happened with his partner. He’d abruptly get out of bed and refuse to talk about it.
Andre began seeing me to address his concerns with premature/rapid ejaculation. As we talked, he learned that his abrupt response to his partner was actually increasing his fear of having another episode of premature/rapid ejaculation. His partner also felt rejected when he would abruptly leave.
He learned to enjoy being close to him physically and emotionally and was OK if sex wasn’t perfect every time. Through skills Andre and his partner learned with me, they found that the incidences of premature/rapid ejaculation decreased. They no longer feared that sex would result in hurt feelings and fighting and began looking forward to their intimate encounters.
John's Story
John and Angeline had a new baby girl. Their interest in intimacy and sex had decreased just as the responsibilities of childcare and work increased. Though they worried that talking about it wouldn’t help, they agreed to see me in hopes of ending their intimacy problems.
During our sessions, they talked more openly about their intimacy and sexual concerns. They learned that they’d been expecting “movie perfect” sex. Soon they became more aware of the great variety of intimate encounters including sensual play, quick sex, romantic sex, mediocre sex, and playful sex. They also found that they enjoyed each other’s company more. A new, more spontaneous, and stronger intimate bond developed.
