Yes, ask your marriage counselor for a reference to two or three board certified sex therapists.

Sex therapists are trained marriage counselors who have extra training in sexual problems. If sex is the elephant in the room, deal with it, or get someone who can.

My preference is either Sue Johnson trained emotionally focused or John Gottman trained marriage conselors, but you really need a sex therapist who is also a marriage conselor and I would recommend that you get a really good one. The price of a really good sex therapist is a lot less than the hourly rate of a divorce attorney.


>43 years of marriage--My wife and I are now closer than we have been in decades. I believe that my SSM is over.
