Myriam Hernandez
Registered Psychotherapist
It takes strength and courage to navigate daily life, with pressures coming at you from what seems like all directions. It takes even greater courage to seek out help, to step back, and look at ourselves in order to deal with distressing thoughts, emotions, body sensations or behaviours, or to deal with the past and its impact on present life.
Alexander Vasilovsky
Psychologist
Therapy can provide opportunities to reflect on the aspects of your life you’d like to change, as well as to explore new ways of seeing and being seen, of connecting and responding to yourself and others. This sort of change can expose us to feeling vulnerable, so I commend you on your courage to consider this next step.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sex Therapy
What is sex therapy and what does it involve?
Sex therapy is a specialized form of talk therapy focused on sexual concerns, difficulties, and relationships. Sessions are conversational — there is no physical contact or sexual activity involved. A sex therapist helps individuals and couples understand the physical, psychological, and relational factors affecting their sexual wellbeing, and develops practical strategies to address specific concerns.
What issues does sex therapy address?
Sex therapists work with a wide range of concerns including low sexual desire, arousal difficulties, pain during sex (vaginismus, dyspareunia), erectile dysfunction, premature or delayed ejaculation, sexual trauma and shame, mismatched desire between partners, questions about sexual identity, and the impact of illness, medication, or life transitions on sexuality. Both individuals and couples are welcome.
Is sex therapy different from couples counselling?
Sex therapy has a specific focus on sexual and intimacy concerns, whereas couples counselling addresses the broader relationship. The two often overlap — sexual difficulties can stem from or contribute to relationship problems — and many therapists trained in sex therapy also practise general couples work. If both sexual and relationship issues are present, a therapist with training in both areas is often the best fit.
Do both partners need to attend sex therapy?
Not necessarily. Many people attend sex therapy individually to address personal concerns, past trauma, or sexual identity questions. Couples often attend together when the issue involves both partners or affects the relationship dynamic. Some therapists work with one partner individually first and invite the other to join later. Your therapist will discuss the most effective format for your specific situation.
Is sex therapy covered by insurance in Canada?
Coverage depends on your province and insurance plan. Many extended health benefits cover psychotherapy regardless of the presenting concern, which would include sex therapy when provided by a registered therapist, psychologist, or social worker. Some plans specify which designations are covered. It is worth checking your plan details or contacting your insurer directly — and asking your therapist about their professional designation when inquiring about coverage.
