Sex & Sexuality

Although sex is the one thing most of us have in common, it is also the one thing most of us don’t talk about. Counselling provides an opportunity to talk about sex without fear of judgement. We may find that not talking about sexual issues may cause us to feel frustrated, ashamed, low in self-esteem, depressed, and may cause us to avoid reltionships or damage relationships that we are in.

Sexual matters in counselling may include issues such as negative emotions or experiences around sex, sexual difficulties, sexual orientation, lack of interest in sex, sex addiction, relationship problems and sexual abuse. We may encounter sexual difficulties in our life at any age, not just in teenage or early adult life, as many believe.
