If your relationship is affected by sexual difficulties, sex therapy will help you learn more satisfying sexual behaviour and to develop a sense of confidence and enjoyment in making love. Call us for an initial assessment and, if you are not sure whether it is sex therapy or relationship counselling that is best for you, we will offer you a consultation with a counsellor to help you decide. Either way, you will be offered an initial appointment within 2 weeks of contacting us and, if appropriate, carry on into sex therapy after this. Otherwise, the counsellor will help you to decide what else you might do next.
