How Can Talking About My Sexual Problems Help?

Talking to a counselor can make a real difference in your sex life in NYC. For example, if you’re facing erectile dysfunction or premature ejaculation, a counselor can identify psychological factors contributing to these issues and provide strategies to manage performance-related anxiety or stress. If you experience sexual pain or trauma, a counselor can guide you in communicating with your partner and offer techniques for healing. Addressing low sexual desire can uncover underlying causes such as stress or relationship issues, with counselors offering practical advice to enhance intimacy. They can also help improve communication between partners and provide support in managing anxieties or fears related to sexual activity.

Online Therapy for Sexual Issues

Living in a city like New York, known for its non-stop energy, can have its ups and downs. It’s thrilling and lively, but the constant rush can leave you feeling stressed, anxious, and sometimes even depressed. This, combined with the pressure to juggle a demanding job and a busy social life, can impact your sex life. Men in New York City often encounter specific challenges that can lead to sexual issues. These may include stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, poor body image, history of sexual trauma or abuse, feelings of guilt, and concerns about sexual performance. These factors can all contribute to sexual health issues for men.

Sex therapy for men in New York commonly focuses on:

  • Erectile dysfunction
  • Premature ejaculation
  • Low sexual desire
  • Sexual identity, orientation, and fetishes
  • Recovery from sexual abuse or trauma

Sex therapy for women in New York helps with a range of issues specific to females, influenced by psychological, physical, and relationship factors, including cultural influences.  Women in NYC commonly seek help for concerns falling into three main categories:

  • Desire issues (like low sexual desire)
  • Arousal and orgasm difficulties (trouble getting aroused or reaching orgasm)
  • Sexual pain problems (pain during sex)

These issues can be lifelong, acquired, or situational, depending on personal circumstances or relationship dynamics. Physical conditions such as pregnancy, surgery, cancer, diabetes, heart disease, nerve disorders, hormone issues, and gynecological problems like vulvovaginal atrophy, infections, or lichen sclerosis can also affect sexual health. 

Psychological causes such as anxiety, depression, trauma, stress—especially related to your relationship with your partner—and concerns about marriage or relationship problems may impact sexual health.

Couples sometimes have problems with their sex life that make them unhappy. These issues can caused by psychological, physical, or relationship problems. Sex therapy for couples in New York helps by talking about these problems and finding ways to make things better.

Common couple sexual problems addressed in therapy include:

  • Differences in sexual desire
  • Loss of interest in sex
  • Feeling unhappy with sexual experiences
  • Lacking emotional closeness
  • Anxiety about performance
  • Dealing with infidelity
  • Feeling bored with sex
  • Coping with compulsive sexual behaviors

In therapy, couples can talk openly about these things and work on talking better and feeling closer. This helps them find ways to have a happier and closer sex life together.

Sex therapy in New York is welcoming to individuals and couples of all sexualities and gender identities. Our therapists are trained to support a wide range of experiences, including those who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, and other gender identities and sexual orientations. At PsychiCare New York, we understand and value the diversity of experiences in sex and relationships, which is crucial for overall sexual and psychological well-being.

Many people use pornography at times, whether for masturbation or to enhance their sex lives. However, when the urge to watch porn becomes compulsive and consistently replaces sexual intimacy with your partner, it may indicate compulsive sexual behavior. 

This preoccupation with porn and masturbation can lead to spending excessive time on these activities, impacting relationships with partners, family, and friends. A healthy sex life is about balance! 

If you find your porn use and masturbation habits overwhelmingly compulsive and want to regain control, specialized sexual counseling can help.

Common signs of problematic pornography use include:

  • Strong preoccupation with porn and masturbation
  • Increasing frequency of masturbation
  • Anxiety when unable to masturbate
  • Feeling unsatisfied by masturbation and/or sex
  • Unsuccessful attempts to cut down or stop
  • Neglecting important responsibilities for masturbation
  • Continuing compulsive behaviors despite negative outcomes

Seeking therapy can provide strategies to manage compulsive behaviors, restore balance, and improve overall well-being.
