Understanding Sexual Dysfunction Treatment
Sexual dysfunction encompasses a range of challenges that affect an individual’s ability to experience sexual satisfaction and intimacy. At Virginia Integrative Psychiatry (VIP), patients with sexual dysfunction receive compassionate, personalized care using the latest psychiatric research and holistic therapies. Sexual dysfunction can impact emotional well-being and relationships, but professional integrative psychiatric treatment can help restore balance and improve quality of life.
VIP combines advanced psychiatric practices with holistic therapies to address the root causes of sexual dysfunction. Our expert team evaluates physical, emotional, psychological, and relational factors, designing individualized treatment plans that go beyond medication alone. Patients receive a thorough psychiatric evaluation and evidence-based treatments—psychotherapy, medication, acupuncture, and lifestyle changes—to support healing and renewed sexual health.
What Is Sexual Dysfunction?
Sexual dysfunction is a persistent difficulty with any phase of the sexual response cycle—desire, arousal, orgasm, or resolution. This condition affects both men and women and can arise from physical, psychological, or combined causes. Common types include:
- Erectile dysfunction
- Low libido or desire disorders
- Delayed or absent orgasm
- Painful intercourse (dyspareunia)
- Premature ejaculation
- Sexual aversion or anxiety
The interplay between mental health and sexual function is significant. Conditions such as depression, anxiety, trauma, or stress often exacerbate or even trigger sexual dysfunction. Moreover, medications, hormonal imbalances, chronic illnesses, or lifestyle factors also contribute. Our integrative psychiatry approach addresses these multifaceted influences by exploring physical health, emotional state, relational dynamics, and neurological factors comprehensively.
