Erectile dysfunction is rarely just physical. Worry about performance feeds anxiety, anxiety feeds the problem, and before long a man is avoiding intimacy altogether — and his relationship feels it. In this recorded counselling session, psychotherapist Deborah Young explains the cycle plainly, without embarrassment, and works through the psychological and relationship factors that keep it going.

It is a real session, in private, at your own pace: pause when you need to, reflect, and come back to it as often as you like. Watch it alone or with your partner.

What you get: a 31-minute counselling session video, streamed online in your own account — watch it on a phone, tablet or computer, any time, with lifetime access. Six reflection worksheets on this subject are also available separately, as a FREE download from the shop.
