About Sex Therapy

At ReFocus You, we believe that sexual well-being is an important part of overall mental health. We provide sex therapy in Edmonton and St. Albert for individuals and couples seeking support with intimacy, sexual health, communication, sexual identity, desire concerns, and relationship challenges. Our therapists create a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental environment where clients can openly explore sensitive topics and work toward meaningful change.

Sex therapy can help address concerns such as low or mismatched sexual desire, performance anxiety, erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, orgasm difficulties, sexual pain, intimacy concerns, shame, guilt, relationship conflict, and the impact of past sexual experiences or trauma. We also support individuals exploring sexual identity, orientation, preferences, and personal values related to sexuality.

Our approach is trauma-informed, sex-positive, evidence-based, and inclusive. Using therapies such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based interventions, communication skills training, relational therapy, and other evidence-based approaches, we help clients develop healthier relationships with themselves, their partners, and their sexuality. Sessions are available in person in Edmonton and St. Albert, as well as virtually across Alberta.

What is Sex Therapy?

Sex Therapy is a form of counselling focused on sexual health, intimacy, and relational dynamics. Whether you are experiencing difficulties with desire, performance, communication, sexual identity, or past trauma, sex therapy offers a confidential, nonjudgmental, and tailored space to address these challenges.

• Low or mismatched sexual desire

• Performance concerns (e.g. erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation)

Our Approach

At ReFocus You, sex therapy is:

• Trauma-informed — we recognize how past trauma can influence current sexuality, and approach this work with sensitivity and care.

• Evidence-based — integrating approaches like cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), mindfulness, communication skills training, relational therapy, and other modalities that best suit your needs.

• Sex-positive and inclusive — we honour diverse expressions of sexuality, sexual identity, relationship styles, and values.

• Collaborative — therapy is tailored to you: your history, your goals, and your comfort level. Partner work is involved when appropriate.

What to Expect

• Initial session to understand your goals, history, and what is meaningful to you.

• Assessment of both psychological and relational factors affecting your sexual health.

• Developing skills: communication, intimacy building, boundary setting, coping with anxiety or performance pressure.

• Homework / take-home practices as agreed, to gradually build awareness, comfort, and changes in real life.
