Sex Therapy

Psychosexual therapy, often referred to as sex therapy, is a specialised treatment that addresses the emotional, psychological, and relational aspects of sexual health. It helps individuals and couples navigate challenges related to intimacy, communication, and overall well-being. This therapy uses evidence-based techniques and fosters open communication to develop customised treatment plans that cater to each individual’s or couple’s unique needs.

Offering a safe and confidential environment, psychosexual therapy enables individuals and couples to identify and overcome obstacles that may affect their sexual and emotional fulfilment. Psychosexual treatment aims to achieve improved communication between partners to enhance sexual confidence and overall satisfaction in relationships.

At Dr. Kamaraj Hospital, we understand sexual health plays in overall well-being. Our specialised sex therapy services offer tailored solutions to help individuals and couples address sexual concerns, improve intimacy, and enhance their quality of life.

Preparation, and Aftercare for Sex Therapy

Preparation

When preparing for sex therapy, it’s important to be open and honest throughout consultations to ensure an accurate diagnosis and effective treatment plan. Individuals must be willing to discuss intimate topics in a judgement-free environment.

Aftercare

A comprehensive aftercare plan is essential to achieve the best results from your psychosexual treatment. This includes constantly practising recommended techniques and exercises and maintaining open communication with your partner. Further, arrange regular follow-ups with your sex therapist to track progress and make necessary adjustments.
