Understanding Painful Intercourse
Painful intercourse can stem from various physical and psychological factors, affecting up to 20% of people in the U.S. at some point in their lives. Common causes include:
- Hygiene-related issues
- Allergies or irritations
- Infections and decreased lubrication
- Internal conditions
- Mental, emotional, and psychological factors, including past trauma or stress
How Painful Intercourse Therapy Can Help
Our sex therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy approaches address both the physical and psychological aspects of painful intercourse. We focus on:
- Identifying and treating the underlying causes of pain
- Navigating mental and emotional barriers to intimacy
- Providing alternative strategies for maintaining a fulfilling sexual relationship without pain
Alternatives to Penetrative Intimacy
We understand the importance of intimacy in a relationship and offer guidance on non-penetrative forms of closeness, such as:
- Sensual massage to explore touch and connection
- Tantric intimacy for a deep, pleasurable connection
- Enjoying a sensual bath together
- Engaging in naughty texting to build anticipation
