Painful Sexual Intercourse: It is caused by pain in the genital area due to psychological reasons such as intense anxiety, negative thoughts, memories of sexual trauma, and false teachings during sexual intercourse. The therapist finds solutions to psychological causes.
Desire Differences: It is caused by the inability of couples to adjust the frequency and time of sexual intercourse. The therapist assists in finding a path and frequency acceptable to both parties.
Erection (Hardening) Problems: Men cannot achieve a sufficient erection during sexual intercourse. Although it seems like a physical problem, it has a lot of psychological aspects. The therapist reveals these psychological causes and applies appropriate treatment.
Vaginismus: It is the situation where women cannot have intercourse or have painful intercourse due to the contraction of the pelvic muscles, although there is no physical reason. Among sexual problems, the problem that therapists can solve in the shortest time and quickly with psychotherapy is the problem of vaginismus. Therapist training mechanisms solve the vaginismus problem caused by fear, anxiety, and worries.
The therapist creates a private and safe learning environment during the treatment process of the client with a sexual disorder. Thus, the treatment process is initiated by enabling the person to discover himself, his identity, body, and relationship.
