Starting Sex therapy

What is sex therapy?

Sex therapy addresses challenges and concerns, helping couples move forward in a healthy manner while addressing each person’s fears or worries. Sex is the closest form of intimacy, and when there are issues, the couple can feel distant and experience friction — sex therapy helps to dissolve this friction.

How does sex therapy work?

Sex therapy providers at Thriveworks in Abingdon, VA take the time to address each person individually, as well as the couple as a whole. Through acknowledgment that each person brings a different sexual history, level of sexual desire, and openness, the couple can work through their unique sex issues successfully, with their therapist’s guidance.

Is sex therapy conducted in person or online?

Sex therapy at Thriveworks in Abingdon, VA is conducted both in person and virtually via online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does sex therapy last?

Sex therapy typically lasts for several months. However, it can be shorter or longer, depending on the couple’s needs.

I highly recommend Trish! She is very helpful, kind, compassionate and excellent at getting down to the roots of the problem. I have made more progress with her than I have with multiple therapists in several different cities. P.S--EMDR therapy sounds totally crazy, but it has significantly helped me. Give it a try!

Dr Mike Pilcher took me under his wing and coached me through one of the biggest decisions of my life...opening a new business. At one point...well more than once...I felt like pulling my hair out and his calm demeanor and no BS approach really helped me get focused and confident. I was able to really pour on the steam and my business is doing well as a result. Dr. P is a great counselor and a man I respect. Call him...I still do to this day.
