Sex Therapy and intimacy counselling: enjoy satisfying sex and lovemaking

If you are having sexual issues, You’re not alone… and Intimacy Counselling can help. Sex Therapy can address issues connected to Desire and Intimacy, Sexual Function and Trauma

Sex counselling for couples can save your marriageSharing sexual intimacy has the potential of being one of the greatest sources of pleasure of our human existence. But if “the earth doesn’t shake under your feet”, having sex can easily become a place of disappoinment, shame or frustration.

Sex  encompasses many things; love, connection, sensuality, pleasure and aliveness, playfulness and fun, lust, eroticism, rapture and surrender.

Approximately half of all couples, at some point in their relationship, experience challenges regarding sexual desire, levels of arousal, orgastic release and overall sexual satisfaction.

Most often problems in the Sex and Intimacy arena  are  connected to psychological, physical and relationship factors rather than a simple biological problem with a simple cure.

"Intimacy counselling saved our marriage. We decided to enter sex therapy with Ina because after 6 years of marriage, 2 children and 2 full time jobs, having sex had landed on the bottom of our "to do" list. If one of us was in the mood, the other one was too tired or wanted to do something else. Ina helped us uncover and resolve some specific issues that were impacting our sex drives. Previously we'd try and talk about our problems but we'd end up fighting. Today we're thrilled because sex is a regular and exciting part of our life again. We've learned to talk about our needs and are able to satisfy each other differently."

Sex Therapy in Burnaby: Deepen Your Intimate Connection

A common stressor that couples face is not knowing how to deal with how they differ in their sexual wants and needs from each other.

During the honeymoon stage, those differences are often masked or minimized. The delicious delight that comes with the early stages of falling in love can also foster the belief that love will conquer any sexual discords.

We all bring expectations and hopes into a relationship. Sometimes these expectations are not clarified, discussed or fully understood. This can lead to painful disappointments, wrong assumptions, judgement and ultimately to a lot of hurt feelings.

Hurt feelings can create disconnect and at some point it may feel overwhelming to find your way to a loving, satisfying intimate connection.

If sex in general is no longer as satisfying as it used to be, you might relate to the following:

  • You’re feeling rejected because your partner doesn’t want sex as often as you do
  • You don’t get as turned on as you used to
  • You’re trying to adjust to changes in your body caused by weight gain, aging or medical conditions
  • Your mind keeps wandering off during sex, you struggle staying present
  • You hesitate being affectionate because you fear that your partner will think you want to have sex
  • You would like more foreplay
  • You don’t share fantasies or desires, because you worry about your lover’s reaction
  • You’re experiencing  problems with building and maintaining sexual arousal and /or orgasm
"We both look forward to and make time for sex again In the beginning we were worried that it would feel awkward talking to a complete stranger about our sex life and the problems we’d been having. We were relieved when we discovered how easy Ina is to talk to. She can normalize the most embarrassing themes and is very knowledgeable about all the dynamics that can affect wanting to have sex. She provided us with practical, down-to-earth exercises and advice. We have gone from one of us being turned off sex and the other one feeling rejected to both of us looking forward to and making time for sex.
