As a psychiatrist and sex therapist for over 25 years, I am accustomed to treating individuals and couples with all kinds of sexual problems. I take a holistic approach to treating patients, and consider factors such as nutrition and lifestyle when conducting a comprehensive evaluation. Treatment may involve supportive or psychoanalytically-oriented psychotherapy, nutritional supplementation, psychopharmacology, sex-enhancing medications, lubricants, sexual aids, couples counseling, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and group therapy.
