It’s important to note that sex therapy is talk therapy; there are no physical examinations or sexual activities that take place during therapy sessions. The goal is to provide a confidential and non-judgmental space where clients can work towards achieving satisfying and healthy sexual lives. Therapists may work collaboratively with medical professionals if there are physical health issues contributing to the sexual difficulties.

Sex therapy is beneficial for both individuals and couples. While it’s commonly associated with helping couples navigate their sexual issues together, individuals can also gain significant benefits from sex therapy. Both individuals and couples can find that sex therapy offers a path to resolving sexual issues, enhancing sexual satisfaction, and fostering a healthier relationship with their own sexuality or with their partner. It’s tailored to the specific needs and goals of the client, whether they’re seeking therapy alone or with a partner.

The number of sex therapy sessions required varies significantly depending on the individual or couple’s unique circumstances, the nature of the issues being addressed, and their goals for therapy. Unlike some forms of short-term therapy that have a predefined duration, sex therapy is highly personalised, and its length can differ widely from one case to another. 

The effectiveness of online sex therapy compared to in-person therapy can vary depending on the individual’s or couple’s preferences, needs, and the nature of their concerns. However, research and clinical experience suggest that online therapy, including sex therapy, can be as effective as traditional face-to-face sessions for many issues.
