Erectile Dysfunction & Peyronie's Disease Treatments

Why Sex Therapy

Sex therapy can help a person or couple overcome a variety of sexual difficulties and challenges.

Sex therapy can be helpful in the treatment of erectile dysfunction, even when physical factors are the principal cause.

Sexual difficulties, no matter what the cause, can strain your relationship. Frequently, a man with erectile problems experiences performance anxiety, which makes him reluctant to initiate sexual contact.

His partner may perceive this as rejection, which could trigger feelings of frustration and resentment. Sex therapy can help a couple overcome these feelings and re-establish intimacy.

Revibe patients will be advised to seek sex therapy, or an appropriate referral will be made, when your doctor determines it may be appropriate.

How Does Therapy Support Other Treatments?

Sexual issues are multi-dimensional; arising out of biological, psychological, behavioral and social factors. Due to this fact, counselling can optimize the efficacy of interventions.

Sexual difficulties can put stress on a relationship. As such, working past this stress and difficulties through speaking with a certified professional can help with the resolution of ED. This applies even if physical factors were the original cause of the condition.

Due to concerns about poor performance, a man with ED or other erectile issues may hesitate to engage in sexual contact. This can weigh heavily on the man’s partner who may feel rejected or ignored. This could then put strain on the relationship. As such, speaking with a certified therapist can help heal the bond between the two.

 

Sex therapy helps individuals and couples to talk about and resolve sexual issues and in turn have greater sexual pleasure.
