Condition
Sexual Dysfunctions
Difficulties with desire, performance, or intimacy that carry a psychological component.
It's a difficult thing to bring up, even with a partner, let alone a stranger — but many sexual difficulties have a significant psychological component, even where a physical factor is also present. You deserve a space to talk about it without embarrassment or rushed advice. At Chaitanya Raj in Vashi & Belapur, Navi Mumbai, we support clients working through difficulties with desire, performance, and intimacy, led by Lt. Col. Rajesh Sharma (Retd), with over 25 years of experience in hypnotherapy and cognitive behavioural approaches.
Common signs
How it works
Sessions are handled with particular discretion, starting with an unhurried conversation about what's been happening and how long it's been an issue. Where a physical cause hasn't been ruled out, a referral for medical evaluation is suggested alongside counselling. From there, we work with the psychological patterns — anxiety, avoidance, or past experience — contributing to the difficulty.
Low Desire & Arousal Difficulties
A drop in desire or difficulty with arousal, without a clear physical explanation, is often connected to stress, relationship dynamics, or how safe and present you feel in the moment. This track explores those factors directly and works toward reconnecting with desire at your own pace.
Performance Anxiety
Worry about performance can become self-reinforcing — the anxiety itself starts causing the very difficulty you're anxious about. This track addresses the anxiety and avoidance cycle directly, using CBT technique to interrupt the pattern.
Intimacy After a Difficult Experience
Where avoidance or distress connects to a specific past experience, Ego State work can help process what's underneath the avoidance, at a pace entirely set by you, alongside practical work on rebuilding comfort with intimacy.
Our approach
CBT to address performance anxiety and avoidance patterns, with Ego State Therapy where past experience is a contributing factor.
