Also known as Male Erectile Disorder or Erectile dysfunction, this is the condition which causes men to have difficulty in getting an erection, or cannot maintain an erection during sex. This can lead to feeling like a failure, frustration, feelings of inadequacy, feelings of rejection and feeling 'under pressure'.

Premature ejaculation (PE) is the most common sexual dysfunction in men. Premature ejaculation is the persistent experience of ejaculating too quickly (coming too quickly) with hardly any sexual stimulation. Premature ejaculation occurs before the man wants it to either before or during sex or before penetration.

Premature ejaculation is often a symptom of underlying lack of confidence, depression, sense of failure, low self-esteem, helplessness and other emotional issues. It may look like the sufferer gets over-excited but in fact the underlying emotion is usually fear: fear of women or a fear of being judged mixed up with a vague, nameless guilt about all things sexual.

Hypnotherapy can help vaginismus, a sexual problem affecting women where sex is painful or impossible due to intense involuntary muscular contraction. Hypnotherapy is very successful in treating vaginismus.

When women fail to reach orgasm even if they enjoy sex it is known as Anorgasmia - the failure to reach orgasm / failure to climax. Hypnotherapy treats anorgasmia very successfully as it totally resolves the underlying emotional causes of the problem.

Technically known as Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder. Loss of sex drive, lack of interest in sex or low libido can cause frustration and problems within a relationship. One partner (usually female but not always) avoids sexual intercourse, avoids sexual thoughts, has no desire for sex, has a fear of being intimate etc.

If you attend a clinic with a sex therapist then you would normally have to be with your partner. Hypnotherapy allows a client to be treated on their own which has significant benefits in terms of reduced nervousness and privacy.

The cause to your sexual problem may be physical or psychological in nature. It’s important to rule out any physical causes with your GP prior to treatment. If medical origins have been excluded it is probable that the cause is psychological and hypnotherapy will help. Please contact me for more information.
