Difference Between Sex Therapy & Sex Coaching

A sex therapist and a sex coach are both professionals who work with individuals or couples to improve their sexual experiences and relationships. However, there are some key differences between the two.

A sex therapist is typically a licensed mental health professional who specializes in addressing psychological and emotional factors that may contribute to sexual concerns or dysfunctions. They often work with individuals or couples who have deep-seated issues, such as trauma, relationship conflicts, or mental health conditions, that may be affecting their sexual well-being.

On the other hand, a sex coach is a non-licensed professional who typically focuses more on providing guidance, education, and practical techniques to enhance sexual satisfaction and develop new skills. They often work with individuals or couples who are seeking to improve specific aspects of their sex lives, such as communication, intimacy, or exploring new sexual experiences. While both professionals can be helpful in addressing sexual concerns, the level of expertise and scope of practice may vary.

Initial Consultation: In our first meeting, we’ll have an open and honest chat to explore your current symptoms, lifestyle, and any underlying issues that might be contributing to your challenges. It’s a safe space, so feel free to share as much or as little as you want. Understanding the full picture will help us pinpoint the best approaches for you.

Education Session: I’ll provide you with all the key information about what causes vaginal dryness and loss of libido. There are so many factors that could be at play, from hormonal changes to psychological factors. Knowing the causes will empower you to make informed decisions about your body.

We’ll work together to craft a personalized diet and nutrition plan that supports hormonal balance and overall well-being. Plus, I’ll introduce you to some gentle exercises that can boost blood flow and improve your libido.

Couples Therapy Session (Optional): If you’re in a relationship, sometimes having your partner involved can be beneficial. We can arrange a session where both of you can explore ways to improve intimacy and communication around sex.

Regular Check-Ins: Your journey towards improving your sexual health is important to me. We’ll set up regular check-ins to discuss your progress, celebrate your wins, and adjust the plan as needed.
