Are you stuck in a sexless marriage? Do you and your partner have mismatched sexual desires? Are you having performance issues? Do you not feel emotionally connected anymore? Or maybe you want to spice up your love life, but your partner isn’t interested.

Sexual health and intimacy are vital components of a fulfilling relationship. If sexual issues are preventing true closeness between you and your partner, you may want to consider sex therapy. At Therapy By Choice in San Jose, California, our team helps individuals and couples enhance their sexual well-being and address challenges through sessions in a comfortable office environment. Whether you’re experiencing intimacy issues, sexual dysfunction, or simply want to deepen your connection, we are here to support you.

How Does Sex Therapy Work?

Sex therapy is designed to address a wide range of concerns related to sexual intimacy and satisfaction. A sex therapist will work with their client on:

• Communication and emotional intimacy
• Desire discrepancies and mismatched libidos
• Performance anxiety and erectile dysfunction
• Orgasmic difficulties and premature ejaculation
• Sexual trauma and recovery

Through open and respectful conversations, we help clients understand their needs and desires, fostering a deeper connection with themselves and their partners. From there, we may recommend specific exercises to refocus the couple’s attention and expectations. Specific objectives may include the following:

• Learning to eliminate and relax distractions
• Learning to communicate what you’d like in a positive way
• Learning nonsexual touching techniques
• Increasing or enhancing sexual stimulation
• Minimizing pain during intercourse

Therapy By Choice is dedicated to helping clients achieve their sexual health goals. Our therapists are trained in specialized areas of sex therapy and are passionate about promoting healthy and satisfying intimate relationships. We approach each session with empathy and professionalism, aiming to empower clients to live their most fulfilling lives.

• Sensate focus exercises to rebuild physical intimacy
• Psychoeducation to enhance understanding of sexual health
• EMDR for trauma-related sexual issues

Our goal is to create a safe and non-judgmental environment where clients can explore and address their concerns, leading to healthier and more satisfying relationships.
