Therapy for Sexual Trauma and Disorders at Manoshanti Neuropsychiatry Clinic

Sexual trauma and related disorders can profoundly affect an individual’s mental, emotional, and physical well-being. At Manoshanti Neuropsychiatry Clinic, we provide compassionate, evidence-based therapy to support healing, recovery, and empowerment for individuals coping with sexual trauma and sexual health disorders.

Understanding Sexual Trauma and Disorders

• Sexual Trauma: Refers to the psychological and emotional impact of experiencing or witnessing sexual violence, abuse, or harassment.
• Sexual Disorders: Includes conditions that affect sexual functioning, desire, arousal, or satisfaction, such as:
  • Low sexual desire
  • Erectile dysfunction
  • Premature ejaculation
  • Orgasmic disorders
  • Vaginismus and dyspareunia (pain during intercourse)

Both sexual trauma and disorders can lead to feelings of shame, anxiety, depression, and strained relationships, but with the right support, recovery is possible.
