Pain is our body’s way of telling us something is not quite right.

If you are having pain STOP what you are doing that leads to your pain (before, during, or after being sexual) and reach out to a health care provider you feel comfortable talking to about your body and sexual health. 

Pain can be caused from a variety of factors, and I can help support you in and through your treatment. There needs to be SOMEONE you can talk to about the painful sex you experience. I can’t tell you the last time I was in a convo where someone was talking about the painful sex they had the day before. It doesn’t feel like there is permission to talk about painful sex, it can feel isolating, and you may be wondering if you are alone.

Let’s take this subject out of the corners of your brain (or genitals), connect your feelings to these sensations, and come up with options for how to approach this painful subject. 

You’ve heard of Sexual dysfunction, but coming from a place of strength, I want to talk about current sexual function. How we can get sex to look a closer to how you WANT it to looking like, using the body parts involved with giving and receiving pleasure, including the most important sex organ, your brain.

You may experience issues with desire, excitement or arousal, obtaining or maintaining an erection, problems reaching orgasm,  ejaculating before you’d like to, not being able to ejaculate at all, or not being able to relax the muscles in your pelvic floor to allow for penetration, or pain (see above). 

The good news is many problems with sexual functioning can be addressed. I provide a thorough assessment and make referrals as needed to sexual medicine providers to address your concerns. 

Talking about sexual pain and functioning is hard. I get it. Talking about it helps you gain more comfort and confidence to address your sexual problems.  I can help you get to the bottom of what is getting in the way of functioning the way you’d like your body and brain to work.
