Insight Psychological - Sexual Issues & Sexuality
Addressing Modern Sexual Issues In Therapy
Simply put, sex therapy is the treatment of sexual dysfunction.
Sex therapy is usually provided by psychologists, social workers, physicians or licensed therapists who have specialized training in issues related to sexuality and relationships. Certified Sex Therapists have graduate degrees and have demonstrated their competence in sex therapy by becoming credentialed by the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors, and Therapists (AASECT).
Sexual Therapy is one of our primary areas of specialty at Insight, and as such, we have ASSECT certified therapists and sexologists in major cities across Alberta including Edmonton, Red Deer, and Calgary.
