Sex therapy primarily focuses on issues of desire, arousal, orgasm, and pain. This distinct form of therapy can assist couples and individuals in reassuring themselves in making healthy decisions to generate change.

These theoretical applications can work for the individual, couple, or family by unraveling negative or unhealthy aspects that we tend to inherit from our history or within a more current dynamic.
