Services: How we can help

SERVICES

Sex Therapy

Our psychosexual therapists have specialist training in human sexuality, equipping them with the knowledge and skills to address difficulties in sexual functioning and other sexual concerns.

Sex Therapy uses talk-based strategies to investigate the feelings and behaviours sexual and non-sexual concerns. Our therapists work collaboratively and proactively to address a wide range of problems. You can view a full breakdown of what each therapist specialises in here.

SERVICES

Relationship Therapy

While sex can often be the reason we enter relationship therapy, there are many reasons to see a relationship therapist.

Relationship therapy is a collaborative session where the relationship itself is the client. Our trained professionals will help support all partners and explore concerns in a non-judgemental environment. Whether you’re trying to get to the root of an issue or looking to explore new avenues such as kink or polyamory, a session can help improve the communication skills of all parties involved. At Sex Life Therapy our therapists are queer and poly friendly.

Relationship therapy can assist with:

SERVICES

General Counselling

Our therapists at Sex Life Therapy all have general counselling knowledge and skills to assist with issues not sexually related. However, sex and relationships concerns can often be impacted by stress, anxiety and other mental health issues. General counselling is used to identify feelings, beliefs and behaviours in times of distress or uncertainty.

We have a team of dedicated therapists, counsellors, social workers, occupational therapists and psychologists that operate under Carringbush Counselling and Psychotherapy for clients looking for help with concerns outside of a sexual nature.
