At My Solution Wellbeing Newcastle, psychosexual therapy provides a compassionate and confidential space for individuals and couples to explore difficulties with sex, intimacy, and emotional connection. We recognise that sexual concerns are rarely “just physical”—they are often shaped by experiences, emotions, relationships, and thought patterns.
Through gentle exploration, practical strategies, and supportive guidance, psychosexual therapy can help you rebuild confidence, improve communication, and create a more fulfilling sexual and relational life.
What Psychosexual Therapy Is
A psychological and relational approach
Psychosexual therapy addresses the emotional, mental, and relational factors behind sexual difficulties. Challenges such as pain, loss of desire, or performance issues often arise from a combination of physical, psychological, and relational influences.
A collaborative, evidence-based process
Our therapists draw on proven approaches, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), psychoeducation, and communication skills, to help you understand your experiences and develop personalised, practical strategies for change.
A safe and confidential space
Sessions provide a non-judgemental environment where you can discuss sensitive topics at your own pace. Our aim is for you to feel heard, understood, and empowered to improve both sexual wellbeing and relational connection.
Common Issues Psychosexual Therapy Can Support
- Low or fluctuating libido
- Erectile difficulties
- Premature, delayed, or absent ejaculation
- Pain during sex (including dyspareunia and vaginismus)
- Difficulty achieving or maintaining arousal
- Orgasmic difficulties
- Sexual anxiety, fears, or phobias
- Relationship or communication issues related to sexual concerns
- DSM-diagnosed sexual dysfunctions
Therapy supports both individuals and couples, focusing on emotional wellbeing, confidence, and stronger intimate connections.
What to Expect
Initial assessment
Your first session explores your concerns, identifies goals, and explains how therapy can support you.
Individual or couples sessions
Attend alone or with a partner—whichever feels right for your journey. Healing and growth happen at your pace. Each session is designed to help you feel safe, understood, and gradually more confident in your body, sexuality, and relationships.
Between-session exercises
Structured tasks or reflections help reinforce skills, improve communication, and strengthen emotional and sexual intimacy.
A holistic approach
Sexual concerns are rarely isolated. Therapy may explore related areas such as self-esteem, past experiences, relationship patterns, stress, or overall emotional wellbeing.
