By Rasheeda Henry, Registered Psychotherapist (RP)

Sex therapy, as practiced by a registered psychotherapist like myself, specializes in addressing sex and intimacy-related concerns. I possess advanced training, including completion of the Intensive Sex Therapy program at the University of Guelph, Recovering from Affairs Training, Sexual Attitudes Reassessment, and certification in EFT and sexuality, among other relevant areas. My approach is holistic, considering the various factors influencing intimate connection.

I provide support for a range of sexual concerns, including: Sexual anxiety Low sexual desire Erectile dysfunction Painful intercourse Problems with orgasm Relationship issues related to sex

The initial session involves a thorough assessment, conducted conversationally, to understand your specific needs. This assessment guides the development of tailored interventions.

My role is to provide psychotherapy, which may include psychoeducation, communication skills training, and strategies for enhancing connection with your partner. I focus on supporting clients seeking to improve intimacy within their relationships.

No, there is no physical contact during sex therapy sessions.

We will explore your sexual and relationship history, beliefs about sex and intimacy, current relationships, identity, and expectations.

The primary difference is the focus on sexual and intimacy concerns. Otherwise, the structure and therapeutic process are similar to traditional therapy.

All sessions and discussions are strictly confidential and adhere to Ontario's Personal Health Information Privacy Act.

Initiating this conversation can be challenging. I can help you navigate this discussion with your partner.
