Let's talk about sex...(part one)

                                               the Elephant in the Room

 Let’s face it, talking about sex, and I mean really, seriously, talking about sex,  is difficult! 

Most people rarely have the benefit of a serious discussion with health professionals about sex or their sexuality and intimacy.  If you have a health professional who does this, that’s great – but really talking and communicating in depth, is the exception rather than the rule.

There are many reasons why health professionals may not talk about sex with you, or do so quickly and often with a strong medical focus:  

• first, they are often very busy and simply do not have the time to devote to this issue
• second, ‘sex’, believe it or not,  is a complex life skill.  It requires considerable understanding, knowledge and self-awareness
• third,  it’s just downright embarrassing for most people to talk seriously about sex!  Most people seem to be interested in the topic of sex, sexuality and sexual issues, but talking about sex for most of us, is just embarrassing.

At inSync for Life, we provide a confidential, safe and secure environment to support you to discuss openly the subject of sex and issues of sexuality and intimacy in your life. 

I’ve found that when individuals and couples have this permission and opportunity, they experience a profound sense of relief and finally being able to speak about difficulties they have had for many years.

As a Sexologist, I am frequently told this and thanked for validating their concerns and providing a safe non-judgement, confidential environment to talk.
