Sex Therapy for Men in Sydney

Sexual health is an integral part of overall wellbeing, yet many men in Sydney struggle silently with challenges that impact their relationships and self-esteem. At Counselling and Psychotherapy Services for Men in Surry Hills, led by experienced therapist Christian Acuña, we provide a supportive and confidential environment to help you address these concerns and rediscover confidence in your sexual health.

Common Sexual Health Issues Men Face

• Erectile Dysfunction (ED): Often caused by a mix of physical, psychological, or lifestyle factors, ED can lead to feelings of inadequacy and strain on relationships.
• Premature Ejaculation: This condition is more common than you might think and can lead to frustration and anxiety around intimacy.
• Low Libido: Stress, hormonal imbalances, and relational issues can all contribute to a decreased interest in sexual activity.
• Performance Anxiety: Fear of not meeting expectations in the bedroom can create a cycle of stress and avoidance.
• Rebuilding Confidence After Sexual Trauma: For some men, past experiences can shape their ability to feel safe and connected during intimacy.

How Our Services Can Help

1. Therapy for Erectile Dysfunction

By exploring the psychological aspects of ED, such as stress, anxiety, or relationship dynamics, we can help uncover the root causes. Techniques like mindfulness, cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), and stress management strategies are often incorporated to improve erectile response and overall confidence.

2. Addressing Premature Ejaculation

Using therapeutic exercises, behavioural strategies, and, when necessary, collaboration with medical professionals, we help you develop greater control and ease in intimate situations. Practical tools and personalised guidance can transform this challenge into an opportunity for growth.

3. Reigniting Libido

Low libido can feel isolating, but it’s often linked to stress, lifestyle factors, or unresolved relational dynamics. Through counselling, we explore the underlying causes and provide actionable steps to rediscover your sexual desire.

4. Overcoming Performance Anxiety

Anxiety around sexual performance can be paralyzing. By focusing on relaxation techniques, communication skills, and building self-esteem, we help you break free from this cycle and embrace a more fulfilling sexual experience.

5. Healing Sexual Trauma

For men who have experienced trauma, we provide a compassionate and structured approach to help process past experiences. Our therapies aim to rebuild trust, safety, and a positive relationship with intimacy.

Our Approach

Christian Acuña employs a range of therapeutic methodologies, including:

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT): To challenge and reframe negative thought patterns.
• Existential Psychotherapy: For addressing deeper questions about identity, relationships, and purpose.
• Mindfulness Techniques: To reduce stress and enhance presence during intimacy.
• Solution-Focused Therapy: To set achievable goals and celebrate progress.

These approaches ensure that our therapy sessions are not only effective but also deeply aligned with your personal needs and experiences.
