Sexual Concerns

Adult Concerns

Millions of men harbor secret sexual desires and engage in sexual behaviors that they keep hidden.  These embarrassing, anxiety provoking, humiliating, and shameful secrets are never revealed, even to the most intimate people in their lives.

Equilibria offers safe, discrete, and confidential help with one of the country’s experts on male sexuality as recognized by Psychology Today.

Consider seeking help if you answer “yes” to any of the following questions:

  • Are you engaging in secret sexual behaviors that place you at risk for family disruption?  Financial turmoil?  Public censure?
  • Are you leading a secret double life with regard to your sexual activity?
  • Are you engaging in sexual behaviors you find embarrassing or shameful? 
  • Do you find yourself aroused to subjects that other adults consider shocking?
  • Do you have sexual kinks that you are too embarrassed to reveal or that are negatively affecting your life, such as cross-dressing, peeping, or masochism?
  • Were you the victim of childhood sexual abuse?
  • Do you have body image concerns (e.g., “I think my penis is to small.”)?
  • Do you think you engage in compulsive sexual behaviors? (This includes Internet porn)
  • Do you have concerns about your sexual orientation (Am I gay?  Bi-sexual?  Trans?)
