Stressful Sex
Life Transitions
Dr, Modjoros investigates not only problems but also seeks out root-causes, and explores a variety of solutions and treatments. I wish we did not need help with our sexual life. But since we do, I am glad that we consult with Dr. Modjoros and would recommend her to anyone.
Thank god for Dr. Modjoros! She was able to work with us and now we know how better to manage our sex life during this chapter. I still plan for sex, but now we have a system where neither of us feels attacked or slighted or nagged.
By the time we came to see Dr. Modjoros, we were basically roommates. I wanted to fix my “low libido” but I didn’t know how. In therapy we figured it out. We learned how to be with each other without putting pressure on the other. That’s what I needed! I really enjoy our sex now because it is fun and enjoyable, and not work.
I didn’t really know what we were getting. Now that we’ve got it, it feels great. You have helped enhance our intimacy and our partnership together.
For years I had vulvodynia that would flare up unexpectedly and sex was painful and scary. Dr. Modjoros worked with me, my partner, and my sex medicine doctors, and the pain slowly faded. Now, I know what to do if it flares again, but so far I’ve been a year pain free! I’m so happy to feel sexual again!
Thank you, thank you, thank you Dr. Modjoros! I never really knew how my own sexual parts worked, and I always depended on my then-husband to bring me to orgasm, and then I felt mad and guilty at the same time since I didn’t even want to have sex. Now, that I’m divorced and dating, and I can actually tell my partners what I like and what I want! The process was sometimes hard, but I’m so happy I came to see you!
From day one, Dr. M created a comfortable, non-judgmental environment for us to talk about parts of our lives that we'd been socially conditioned to keep quiet about. She asked thoughtful questions that encouraged us to dig deeper and think about things differently; and she responded to our experiences and concerns with genuine compassion and insightful feedback. We are so thankful that we found Dr. M, and are looking forward to continuing our work together.
Before going to Dr. M I had seen many therapists but none were effective. I had a major surgery done to fix my erectile problems and going to Dr. M has given me the confidence and ability to no longer worry about performance anxiety.
For all my life, sex was just getting it over with fast so he could be satisfied. I couldn’t orgasm, even with masturbation. Now, sex is great and I feel like a weight has been lifted off of me. My husband and I, despite our busy lives with young children and too many responsibilities, are the happiest we’ve ever been in 18 years. Thank you Dr. M!
