Problems with Sex

It is so common for sex to be a problem in a relationship. After the early stages when maybe both can’t get enough!! After a while one will be keener that the other or at different times. It can lead to disappointment, resentment and anger. What happens after a year, two, and five, ten or more?

Who should initiate and when? There is the issue of wanting to, or not wanting to become pregnant! Maybe there is a fear of intimacy. Very often this is because of problems of self-consciousness due to body image, fear of premature ejaculation, loss of erection, absence or slowness to orgasm. Boredom and tiredness hugely effect sex. Being pregnant leads to the fear of having sex or the stress of having a baby and/ or its resulting depression can massively affect desire.

There are so many potential issues around sex that develop into a problem and then if not properly addressed eventually leads to a crisis! Sometimes total abstinence becomes the result.  Finding another avenue of relief can become common. This might be alcohol, an affair, workaholism and much more.

By this time it may become impossible to solve it on your own. So for many people talking to a professional about this is the only way you can really help the situation. It may not be too late. We can help you understand the situation better. You can then look at things from a different perspective. This is something that you could never do on your own. Then you can have real choice and improve the situation

If you contact us we can arrange a session for you individually or as a couple by phone, Skype or face to face at one of the centres. Please don’t put it off any longer. It probably won’t get better on it’s own.
