Sex therapy is a type of psychotherapy that can improve sexual function, feelings and intimacy, both separately and individually for partners. Therapy can be effective in different age groups, gender and sexual orientation. It is administered by qualified psychologists, doctors or therapists who are specially trained in issues of sexual activity and sex. It is recommended that sex therapy be applied in the short term and focus on the specific problem area. The therapist can approach it in different ways for different cases, he can give “homework” to the couple that is related, both with intimate gestures and with gifts or other types of rewards. The goal is for couples to gradually discover where the problem is rooted and smooth out their relationship. Sex therapy can improve the concern between partners, strengthen feelings, both physical and mental, help with sexual orientation and compulsive sexual behavior. Problems related to premature ejaculation, erectile dysfunction, difficulty reaching orgasm (anorgasmia) or painful intercourse (dyspareunia) can also be treated in sex therapy. The reasons for the so-called dyspareunias are numerous: emotional, physical and combined. Circumstances become even more serious when the problem goes beyond the confines of the bedroom, disrupts relationships in a relationship and the quality of life in general. A simple gynecological examination is sometimes sufficient to clarify the genesis of dyspareunia. Some imaging, microbiological, and hormonal studies are also helpful in the diagnostic process. However, the role of the psychotherapist in clarifying sexual dysfunction should not be neglected here. Problems in the bedroom are often not discussed between partners, as the conversations are quite awkward and disturbing for some people. The goal of the sex therapist is to predispose the partners to talk about their problems, which is the first step towards solving them. A lot of love problems are psychologically based, and if the emotional factor is not taken into account, they can damage the relationship as a whole from the very beginning.
