Undergo therapy alone or together
Sexuality therapy is a confidential and interactive therapy that takes place via conversational methods. Its purpose is to help with problems related to sexuality, sexual activities, and human relationships. You can undergo sexuality therapy alone or together with your partner(s). It is based on a holistic approach, taking into account your physical and mental health condition as well as other aspects of life such as social contacts, work, and relationships with intimate partners and family. The sexologist allows you to bring up issues related to sexuality and its challenges. The therapist gives you facts, debunks false assumptions, helps you find new perspectives, insights and opportunities for change.
Changes often occur gradually, as you process the things addressed during therapy.
The duration of sexuality therapy varies case by case
Sexuality therapy utilises the perspectives of various forms of psychotherapy. It is goal- directed, and usually short-term: the duration of therapy ranges from a few months to a year, entailing approximately 5 to 20 sessions. In some cases, your sexuality difficulties may already start to unravel after one or two sessions. The number and frequency of therapy sessions are always agreed according to the client’s individual needs, and the client can end the sexuality therapy at any time.
