Why should I talk to  a sexologist?
  • After I had my baby, I got divorced. How can I be sexually attracted to the right person?
  • I keep getting partners that don't like to do what I want to do during sex. 
  • My sex life is, or could be, threatening to my career.
  • I struggle with being turned on to someone at work where dating the person I’d like to date is simply not appropriate.

 

  • I don't know what to do about making my sex life as good as my career.
  • I’m in graduate school and want to have a romantic life that doesn’t distract me from my studies.                               
  • As a politician, I need to understand my vulnerability to “dirty tricks” that might involve my sex life.
  • I am concerned that my teenagers might find my husband's porn.

 

  • I am worried that if I tell my teenager too much about sex that she might get herself pregnant.
  • I had breast cancer surgery and now I am worried that my husband won't think I am attractive.
  • I had a baby, but now I'm not sexually attracted to my husband.
