Sex and Intimacy Issues

Navigating Sex and Intimacy Issues: Finding Connection Through Therapy

Sexuality and intimacy are fundamental aspects of human experience, contributing to our overall well-being and connection with others. However, challenges in these areas are common and can impact relationships and self-esteem. At Islington Therapy House, we provide a safe and supportive environment to explore and address these concerns.

Understanding Sex and Intimacy Issues

Sex and intimacy issues encompass a wide range of experiences, including:

  • Low sexual desire or mismatched libidos
  • Erectile dysfunction or premature ejaculation
  • Pain during intercourse (e.g., vaginismus, dyspareunia)
  • Difficulty achieving orgasm
  • Sexual trauma or abuse
  • Compulsive sexual behaviour or pornography use
  • Exploration of sexual orientation or gender identity
  • Challenges in non-traditional relationships (e.g., polyamory, kink)

These issues can stem from various factors, such as psychological stress, past experiences, medical conditions, or relationship dynamics.
