Q & A's for Therapists

DEAR DEL,
I want to learn if hypnotherapy can help me about my chronic sexual problems. I don't even know what orgasm is, and I feel terrible when my boyfriend touches me. The doctor couldn't find an organic disorder and suggested that I look for a good therapist.

Thank you for being willing to write to me about this delicate matter. Your problem is not unusual, but it is often a well-kept secret by the many people who suffer from such issues. But it can be solved. And hypnosis is a powerful tool for doing so. Although I don't work with this area myself, there are others who are exceptionally effective with various kinds of sexual dysfunction. Get a good hypnotherapist who will work with sexual problems, and especially one who knows how to get to the source of the block. Personally, I feel one who is also a counselor is best for this type of problem.
