Question 1

What is sex therapy, and do I need a referral first?

Question 2

What if I feel embarrassed talking about sex?

On Alma, browse therapists in Pflugerville who help with intimacy and sexual health and choose someone whose profile puts you at ease.

Question 3

Can my partner and I see a sex therapist together?

Coming together can feel like a big step for both of you. Some therapists see couples, and you can ask how they run joint sessions and whether they also meet with each partner alone. On Alma, profiles of sex therapists in Pflugerville show who each one sees, so you can filter for couples work.

Question 4

Will my therapist coordinate with my doctor?

Accepted Answer

How long do people usually see a sex therapist?
