Sex therapy is a form of psychotherapy that specializes in addressing sexual concerns such as pain during sex, erectile disorder, low desire, or difficulty orgasming. Sex therapy can also help individuals and couples increase sexual and relationship satisfaction. 

There are so many ways that we can practice self-care. Attending medical appointments typically isn’t something that we consider as self-care, but it can be an important aspect of caring for ourselves and our bodies.

If you have experienced trauma or had negative healthcare experiences, the idea of attending a medical appointment, especially for things such as pap smears, breast exams, or urology appointments, can be overwhelming.

A positive therapeutic alliance has been linked to having a successful experience in therapy. It is important to feel safe, supported, and empowered throughout the therapy process. Each client comes into therapy with unique experiences, strengths, and concerns just like each therapist has their own unique perspective, training and education, and approach.
