Starting Sex therapy

What is Sex therapy?

Sex therapy addresses challenges and concerns, helping couples move forward in a healthy manner while addressing each person’s fears or worries. Sex is the closest form of intimacy, and when there are issues, the couple can feel distant and experience friction — sex therapy helps to dissolve this friction.

How does Sex therapy work?

Sex therapy providers at Thriveworks in Westminster, CO take the time to address each person individually, as well as the couple as a whole. Through acknowledgment that each person brings a different sexual history, level of sexual desire, and openness, the couple can work through their unique sex issues successfully, with their therapist's guidance.

Is Sex therapy conducted in person or online?

Sex therapy at Thriveworks in Westminster, CO is conducted both in person and virtually via online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does Sex therapy last?

Sex therapy typically lasts for several months. However, it can be shorter or longer, depending on the couple's needs.

Need more help deciding?

Daniel had his prostate removed a year ago due to prostate surgery. Since then, he has had trouble with sexual performance, which is impacting his sense of fulfillment. Just as important, it is affecting his sense of sexual confidence. His changes in attitude are tough on his marriage. Glynna, on the other hand, has changed sexually since she entered into marriage. She would now like to add some variety to their established sexual routine but isn’t sure how to engage her spouse in these desires.

These are only two of the many, many situations that people face. If your sex life isn’t satisfying due to trauma, lack of communication, or any other reason, give Thriveworks Westminster, CO a call today. We know it can be difficult to talk about, but we offer a private, judgment-free zone in which to discuss these personal issues.

Sexual Issues and Sexual Disorder Therapy

Therapists and counselors deal with a lot of different issues and concerns. One of the most private and most important of these are sexual issues. If you are trying to cope with a sexual issue from your past or in your current relationship, Thriveworks Westminster counselors and therapists are ready to help. It can be a difficult subject to discuss with a new person, but you can feel safe in our offices. We’ve helped people with a wide variety of sexual problems, and we are not easily shocked.

Sex is everywhere in our society. On television and movies; in music and social media; the topic cannot be avoided. When you are experiencing sexual dissatisfaction, every encounter with the subject can be painful. And after dealing with your sexual issues alone for years, or possibly even decades, it can be hard to imagine overcoming them. But with the help of Thriveworks Westminster counselors and therapists, real victory and progress are possible.

Types of Sexual Disorders

Sexual disorders and issues vary widely. Some common types of sexual issues include:

  • Sexual orientation
  • Anxiety about sex or sexual performance
  • Body image issues
  • Sex addiction
  • Promiscuity or unfaithfulness
  • Lack of sexual desire
  • Conflicting sexual needs and wants in a relationship
  • Sexual abuse or rape recovery
  • Impotence
  • Sexual impulses and compulsions
  • Voyeurism
  • Fetishes

This is not a complete list but covers a lot of the problems or concerns we see most often. However, if you do not see your particular concern, there is no need to feel alone or embarrassed. Thriveworks Westminster counselors and therapists are prepared to deal with whatever you bring to our office. You may be an expert at keeping your sexual issue a secret. Years and years of practice make this second nature. Or perhaps there is a new trauma or issue in your life that needs to be addressed, and you are unsure where to turn. Thriveworks Westminster counselors and therapists are a safe choice.

How Sexual Dysfunction Affects Relationships

When a couple is having problems with sexual intimacy, their relationship can suffer in other areas as well. A lack of closeness, intimacy and decreased communication can result. It can be difficult to determine whether the sexual issues came before or after other problems in the relationship. A Thriveworks Westminster sex therapist or couples’ counselor can help navigate these issues, and identify the source of sexual problems. For many individuals, trauma from their childhood can cause difficulties in future relationships. When a person is able to openly deal with the pain from the past, they can begin to overcome their sexual issues in a new way.

Sex is important. It helps bond couples closer together. If one or both partners are struggling, Thriveworks Westminster counselors can help both the individuals and the relationship.

How Counseling Can Help

The focus of counseling will vary depending on the problem for which you are seeking counseling. For those who need to unpack and process past or recent trauma, your sessions with your therapist will likely be one-on-one. The focus will be learning how your past experiences are impacting your life today, and how to change your attitudes to enact your desired changes. The same goes for unhealthy attitudes learned in childhood. Ideas about consent, religious beliefs, even what it means to appease others can all impact our adult sexual experiences, sometimes for the negative. A therapist can help you untangle the confusing knot of attitudes, beliefs, and desires.

Sometimes we see couples for sex therapy in Westminster. If there has been a shift in one person’s desires, perhaps due to health, as in Daniel’s case, a therapist can help the couple negotiate the changes and find a new, satisfying “normal.” We also see individuals and couples dealing with sexual addiction, pornography addiction, a desire to engage in unsafe sexual practices, and more. It’s important that you know before you call us that we have helped many people deal with the most complex of issues—and we take them all seriously.

Thriveworks Westminster Sex Therapy

We know that it can take time to finally decide to seek counseling. This may be the first time you have ever considered seeing a therapist or counselor.

At many offices, it can take weeks to book your first appointment. At Thriveworks Westminster, we are different. We pride ourselves on not operating with a waiting list. It can be overwhelming to think about telling your story to someone new. But there is no need to suffer in silence any longer. Thriveworks Westminster therapists and counselors are ready to partner with you in this journey of healing and growth.

Chris at Thrive Works saved my life. I started at the beginning of the pandemic, by phone, and I didn’t think therapy by phone would have the impact that it did. But I tried for my kids, my marriage, and myself. I can’t say enough good things about Chris. Thank you for everything, and for literally saving my life. I wouldn’t be alive without his counsel.

Jakob Rosenthal is the best therapist I've ever encountered! He gets to the bottom line quickly and kindly, and helps me to understand as well as helps me to have healthy coping mechanisms. I am a better person for having seen him.

Initially I saw Jacob for my intake appointment and felt he was really great. I was placed with Kate Kelly and overall she is fabulous. She has helped me live to my full potential. She has helped me sort out my PTSD with childhood and adult trauma, as well as being a great resource for addiction counseling. She was also extremely helpful to point me in the right direction on how to deal with (or escape from) toxic family members. She was also a really great help to me during grief and loss of a loved one. I feel so much better than I did before going to Thriveworks. I'm in a great place now and will be back in the future. I can't thank you enough.

Jacob has helped me much more than any therapist I've ever seen. His skill, insight, and kindness are truly outstanding. Jacob has helped me change my life so that my depression is no longer in charge. His approach is very direct - which may not be for everyone but was perfect for me - but he always acts and speaks with sincere compassion. Thank you, Jacob, you have helped heal me at a level I thought was impossible. Also, Jennifer has always been super wonderful and responsive withheduling and questions. She goes above and beyond to be helpful and kind. Thanks Jennifer! You're awesome.
