At Fitzroy, we recognise how cultural and religious values can shape—and at times, silence—an individual or couple’s relationship to sex and intimacy. Many people come to therapy having received limited sex education, internalised expectations around marriage or gender roles, or carrying feelings of guilt, fear, or confusion about their desires.

For some couples, these influences contribute to difficulties such as an inability to have penetrative sex without understanding why. Conditions like vaginismus often go undiagnosed for years, leading to feelings of isolation and shame for both partners. Even after vaginismus is treated, it is not uncommon for one partner to experience premature ejaculation—frequently rooted in anxiety, pressure, or longstanding avoidance of sexual connection.

At Fitzroy, we offer a discreet, non-judgmental space to explore these issues with compassion and care. Through psychosexual therapy, couples are supported to build trust, enhance communication, and gradually rediscover intimacy on their own terms.

Our approach not only focuses on overcoming difficulties but also on cultivating enjoyment, confidence, and emotional closeness—empowering couples to create a fulfilling and connected sexual life that honours both their values and desires.
