sex therapy

Sex therapy is psychotherapy with a focus on the treatment of sexual concerns. Most sex therapy interventions are cognitive-behavioral, meaning they look at the influence of how thoughts and behaviors impact mood. Sex therapy often includes homework assignments for clients to complete in between sessions. (Sex therapy does not involve nudity or being sexual in session). Learn more >
