Sex Therapy
Are you struggling with sexual issues and looking for help?
- Are you experiencing difficulties in your sex life or intimate relationships?
- Do you feel like your sexual trauma is impacting your overall well-being and happiness?

Perhaps you’re dealing with low libido, pain during intercourse, or difficulty reaching orgasm. Maybe you’re struggling with body image issues that are affecting your sexual confidence. Or you might be in a relationship where there’s a mismatch in sexual desires or expectations.
At the same time, you may be hesitant about seeking help. You might feel embarrassed or ashamed to discuss these intimate matters, or you’re unsure if sex therapy is right for you.
If any of this resonates with you, we encourage you to reach out to the Therapy for Women Center in Philadelphia. Our experienced sex therapists offer compassionate and effective sex therapy for individuals and couples. Whether you’re seeking individual support or sex therapy for couples, we’re here to help you navigate your sexual concerns and work towards a more fulfilling sex life.
What is sex therapy and how can it help?
Sex therapy is a specialized form of psychotherapy or talk therapy that focuses on addressing sexual issues and concerns. It’s a safe, confidential space where you can discuss any sexual problems you’re experiencing and work with a trained sex therapist to find solutions.
Many people wonder, “What is sex therapy exactly?” It’s important to understand that sex therapy doesn’t involve any physical contact or sexual activity during sessions. Instead, it’s a talk therapy that uses various therapeutic techniques to help you understand and overcome your sexual challenges.
Sex therapy can help with a wide range of issues, including:
- Low sexual desire or libido
- Erectile dysfunction or premature ejaculation
- Pain during intercourse
- Difficulty reaching orgasm
- Sexual trauma or abuse
- Body image issues affecting sexual confidence
- Mismatched sexual desires in relationships
- Exploration of sexual identity or orientation
Our approach to sex therapy is sex-positive, meaning we believe that consensual sexual expression is a healthy and important part of human life. We offer sex-positive therapy that aims to help you feel more comfortable with your sexuality and sexual experiences.
Get StartedThe benefits of sex therapy with our experienced sex therapists:
At Therapy for Women Center, we specialize in sex therapy for women, although we welcome clients of all genders and sexual orientations. Our sex therapists are highly trained professionals who understand the complexities of human sexuality and can provide expert guidance and support.
Sex therapy techniques used in our practice are diverse and tailored to each client’s needs. We often employ cognitive-behavioral therapy to address negative thought patterns about sex, helping you develop a healthier mindset. Mindfulness exercises are another key component, designed to improve body awareness and enhance sexual pleasure. For couples, we offer communication skills training to foster better understanding and intimacy.
Our approach also includes exploring sexual beliefs and values, which can significantly impact your sexual experiences. We provide education about sexual anatomy and function, ensuring you have a solid understanding of your body and its responses. To reinforce progress made during sessions, we may assign homework, giving you the opportunity to practice new skills or behaviors in the privacy of your own home.
We also offer online sex therapy for those who prefer the convenience and privacy of virtual sessions. This can be particularly helpful for clients who feel more comfortable discussing sexual issues from the comfort of their own home. Whether in-person or online, our goal is to create a safe, supportive environment where you can work towards a more satisfying sex life.

Frequently Asked Questions
It’s completely normal to feel embarrassed or nervous about discussing sexual matters. Our sex therapists are trained to put you at ease and create a comfortable environment for these conversations. Remember, we’ve heard it all before, and there’s nothing to be ashamed of.
While we do offer sex therapy for couples, it’s not exclusively for those in relationships. Many individuals seek sex therapy to address personal concerns or to better understand their sexuality. Sex therapy can be beneficial for anyone, regardless of relationship status.
It’s a common misconception that sex therapy involves sexual activities or demonstrations in the therapist’s office. This is not the case. Sex therapy is a form of talk therapy, similar to other types of psychotherapy. All discussions take place in a professional, clothed setting. Your sex therapist may suggest exercises or activities for you to do in the privacy of your own home, but these are never performed during therapy sessions. Our goal is to create a safe, comfortable environment where you can openly discuss your concerns without any pressure or embarrassment.
