Wondering what actually happens in sex therapy — and whether it's worth the investment? Here's an honest look at the process, the real costs, and how to decide what's right for your relationship.
When one partner wants sex more than the other, it creates a painful cycle of rejection and pressure. Learn why desire discrepancy is normal, what causes it, and how to navigate it without resentment.
When sex stops in a relationship, it's rarely about one thing. Learn the real reasons intimacy fades—and the compassionate, practical steps that actually help couples reconnect.
Performance anxiety can turn intimacy into a test you're terrified of failing. Learn why it happens, how it affects your sex life, and therapist-backed strategies to reclaim pleasure without pressure.
Initiating sex shouldn't feel like a risk assessment. Being turned down shouldn't feel like rejection. Learn how to navigate sexual initiation with confidence and respond to "no" without hurt feelings.
Sexual shame doesn't just make sex uncomfortable—it makes connection nearly impossible. Learn where shame comes from, how it shows up in your intimate life, and how to begin healing it together.
When orgasm becomes the finish line, sex turns into a performance instead of an experience. Learn why letting go of orgasm as the goal can actually lead to more pleasure, deeper connection, and yes—better orgasms.
When stress is high, desire often disappears. You're not broken—your body is doing exactly what it's designed to do. Learn why stress kills libido and how to reconnect with your partner even when life feels overwhelming.
Most couples struggle to talk openly about sex, but it's not because they don't care. Understanding why these conversations feel so hard is the first step toward making them easier.
When sex is only one thing, it becomes fragile. Expanding your definition of intimacy makes your connection more resilient, more playful, and more satisfying for both partners.
If you rarely feel randomly 'in the mood,' you're not broken. You might just have responsive desire, and understanding this can transform how you and your partner approach intimacy.
