Therapy for Erectile Dysfunction
Helping you understand and address changes in erection, arousal, and sexual performance
Erectile dysfunction can impact how you experience sex, how you relate to your partner, and how you feel about your body
You might notice hesitation, pressure, or a shift in how often you initiate or avoid intimacy altogether. Even when the relationship is otherwise strong, this can become a point of tension.
What You Might Be Experiencing
Erections feel inconsistent or harder to maintain
You’re thinking about it during sex instead of being in the moment
You feel pressure to “make it work” or fix it quickly
You avoid initiating sex or intimacy altogether
Sex feels more stressful than enjoyable
It’s starting to affect your confidence
It’s creating tension or unspoken frustration in your relationship
As we work through what’s contributing to your erectile dysfunction, your experience of sex can start to change
There’s less pressure to perform and less time spent trying to control or predict what’s going to happen. Instead, the focus shifts toward being more present and responsive.
Over time, many people notice more consistency, more confidence, and less tension in both their individual experience and their relationship.
What to Expect
Consultation
We start with a 20-minute consultation to get a sense of what’s going on and whether this feels like a good fit. If it does, we can schedule your first session from there.
Initial Sessions
We take a closer look at your experience, including your sexual history, current concerns, and what you want to change. If you’re coming in as a couple, we’ll meet together and individually before continuing joint sessions.
Ongoing Work
From there, sessions focus on understanding patterns, reducing pressure, and making changes that lead to more consistency and a different experience over time.

That’s something we can work through directly. Erectile dysfunction often impacts all relationship partners, so part of the work may include improving communication and reducing tension around sex.
-
That’s common. Many people have already looked into medical causes or tried to make changes on their own before starting therapy. This work focuses on the factors that often get overlooked, which is why it can still be helpful even if you’ve tried other approaches.
Erectile dysfunction can turn something that used to feel natural into something you’re constantly thinking about or trying to manage.
If this has been affecting your experience of sex or your relationship, therapy can help you understand the contributing factors and work toward a more consistent, less pressured experience.
