    I think you've succeeded in making a compassionate online platform, and that's energizing, especially coming from a country where the waiting lists in therapy are soul-drainingly long.Anonymous client in Copenhagen
    I hope there will be more platforms like It's complicated - humane, humble, honest, and nourishing.Anonymous client in Berlin
    Great way to connect and keep in contact with ones therapist! Easy to use, good video connection and easy to send questions about availability or share documents.Anonymous client
    I'm really happy with the platform. After leaving an abusive relationship, I found a therapist here for myself, and also one for my daughter. I've recommended the site to multiple friends.Anonymous client

    About It's Complicated

    In 2019, two therapists set out to tackle a complicated problem.

    The psychiatrist Carl Jung once wrote that, “Nobody, as long as he moves about among the chaotic currents of life, is without trouble”. One does not have to be a therapist, though, to realize that life is complicated. But finding the right therapist, who you can build a strong relationship with, shouldn’t have to be. This is the founding principle of It’s Complicated.Since our start, we've helped over 30,000 clients and counting, offering thousands of free crisis support hours, and built thriving therapy communities in Berlin, Amsterdam, London, Munich, and Athens.

    Sex therapy and its applications

    Sex therapy is a specialised form of therapy aimed at addressing concerns related to sexual health, intimacy, and relationships. It encompasses a range of techniques and interventions designed to help individuals and couples overcome challenges and improve their sexual well-being. At It's Complicated, we understand the sensitive nature of these issues and offer a supportive environment where clients can explore their concerns with qualified sex therapists. Sex therapy addresses a variety of issues, including but not limited to erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, low libido, sexual trauma, gender identity, and sexual orientation. Through a combination of talk therapy, education, and practical exercises, sex therapists assist clients in understanding the underlying causes of their difficulties and developing effective strategies for improvement.

     

    How sex therapy works

    Sex therapy operates on the principle that sexual health is an integral part of overall well-being. Our qualified sex therapists work collaboratively with clients to identify goals and develop personalised treatment plans. Sessions may involve discussions about sexual attitudes and beliefs, communication skills, and exploration of physical sensations and responses. Through a supportive and non-judgmental approach, sex therapists help clients address emotional barriers, improve self-esteem, and enhance intimacy within relationships. Techniques such as mindfulness, sensate focus exercises, and cognitive-behavioural therapy are commonly utilised to promote positive change and empower individuals to experience more fulfilling sexual experiences. 

     

    Is sex therapy right for you?

    Sex therapy may be beneficial for individuals and couples experiencing challenges or dissatisfaction in their sexual lives. Whether you're struggling with performance anxiety, navigating a mismatch in sexual desire, or coping with past trauma, sex therapy offers a safe space to address these concerns with a trained professional. If you're considering sex therapy, it's essential to choose a therapist who is experienced, knowledgeable, and sensitive to your needs. Find an experienced sex therapist today from the It's Complicated community that can help you confidentially and compassionately achieve more confidence in bed.

    Finding Your First Therapist: Starting Strong and Overcoming Challenges

    Going to therapy for the first time or going to a new therapist is a bold step. Thus, it might elicit some strong feelings. For example, will I make progress? Is this person a good fit for me? What if I feel worse? These apprehensions are expected, and they accompany the process of entering therapy.

    Beyond Affirmative: The Quest for Queer Therapy

    If we take a moment to look at the history of psychology and psychiatry, it becomes clear just how complicit these fields have been in upholding oppressive structures. Like many accepted and seemingly “objective” standards, therapeutic modalities and approaches are rife with patriarchal, capitalistic, white-supremacist, and cis/hetero/mono-normative underpinnings. Historically, these fields have often pathologized diverse
