LGBTQ+ Gay Sex Therapy
Why Choose The Homosexual Therapy Center?
Our Homosexual sex therapists can help you understand how to discuss about sex and feel closer to your partner at the end of the conversation. For example, when someone you love says no to sex, it has an emotional impact. We can help you both process the feelings that appear up when this happens: how it feels when a partner doesn’t convene sexual needs, as well as how it feels when you can’t grant your partner what they desire.
In our sessions, you will learn how to talk about sex in a fruitful way and leave go of the shame surrounding your sexuality. Our approach is based on the belief that sexually healthy people accept their uniqueness rather than combat it.
Good communication is slow and deliberate, whereas fighting happens “fast,” often with partners quickly saying things that are hurtful or unproductive. We will illustrate you communication techniques built on empathy, deep listening, and decelerated conversations that will enable you both to fully hear each other. We want both of you to be able to talk about sex in a way that brings you closer together, rather than driving you further apart.

Gay couples, throuples, quads and partners from polycules may seek a sex therapist for a variety of reasons. However, there are several common reasons people seek sex therapy to address issues in their relationships.
