​What is sex therapy?

Sex therapy is a form of talk therapy where you can address concerns about sexual function, trauma, sexual feelings and intimacy — either in individual therapy or in joint therapy with your partner. Sex therapy can be effective for adults of any age, sex or sexual orientation.

​In addition to seeking sex therapy, clients are encouraged to have a medical evaluation and treatment. Medical professions may also be consulted for continuity of care. 

​Why is choosing a Certified Sex Therapist important?​

Obtaining AASECT certification requires therapists to complete a rigorous two years of didactic and practicum training to develop the theoretical knowledge and specialized clinical skills needed to help clients address their sexual concerns.

​To maintain AASECT certification, Certified Sex Therapists also must actively participate in continuing education programs to refine their skills and keep current with the latest advances in the field of human sexuality.
