FAQs About Sex Therapy in Chicago

• What happens in a sex therapy session?
  Sex therapy is talk-based, not physical. We discuss your experiences, feelings, and goals around intimacy. You’ll learn strategies to improve communication, reduce anxiety, and rebuild pleasure without any sexual activity in session.

• Can sex therapy really help with low desire or mismatched libido?
  Yes. We explore both emotional and physiological factors that can affect desire. Many clients discover that improving emotional closeness and reducing pressure reignites their sexual connection.

• Do you see individuals, or only couples?
  Both. We work with individuals exploring anxiety, shame, or identity, and with couples who want to improve their sexual and emotional intimacy.

• How long does sex therapy usually take?
  While every journey is unique, most clients begin to notice improvement within 6 to 10 sessions. We collaborate to set goals and review progress regularly.

• Is sex therapy covered by insurance in Chicago?
  Embrace Sexual Wellness operates as an out-of-network provider. We’ll provide superbills you can submit for insurance reimbursement with most PPO plans.

• Do you offer virtual sessions for Chicago clients?
  Yes. We offer secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth therapy for anyone located in Illinois.

• How do I know if sex therapy is right for me?
  If you’re feeling disconnected from your partner, experiencing performance anxiety, or struggling with desire, therapy can help you reconnect emotionally and physically in a supportive environment.
