A sexual phobia is a fear or anxiety of some kind that impacts your ability to become aroused.  The phobia can be specific, for example, it causes panic to touch a particular part of your partner's body.  Alternatively, it may be more general, such as having the lights off.

 

Sexual phobias are often related to earlier traumatic experiences, but not always.  A 'phobia' is not a strong dislike of a particular sexual activity. 

 

As a sex therapist, I help you overcome your sexual fear at a rate that feels comfortable to you, and develop an enjoyable sexual relationship.
