Sexual and Emotional Intimacy Challenges

Couples with Emotional & Sexual Intimacy Issues? Spirit of Hope Counseling Center Can Help!


Many couples lack an emotional and sexual connection! You are most likely facing this issue with the couples you work with.


Let us help you!


We are seeing more issues around emotional affairs, sexual affairs, excessive pornography use and cyber sex. Cyber-sex is the use of technology to exchange sexual messages, share photos or videos, phone sex, and sexting.


Here are signs to look for where intervention may be necessary:


  1. Signs of Betrayal from the Unfaithful Partner


  1. Emotional disconnection, avoiding conversations, pulling away physically and emotionally


  1. Changes in communication with lack of eye contact, decreased openness and honesty, increased defensiveness and irritability, lying


  1. Gaslighting (psychological manipulation denying the other person's reality, memory or perceptions with attacks on the other person through criticism, sarcasm, telling them they are crazy)


  1. Behavioral changes like a sudden change in routine or habits, spending more time away, increased secretive behavior like hiding phones or computers, lying, deleting browsing history, money unaccounted for, and decrease in sexual intimacy


Signs of Those Being Betrayed:


  1. Talk of a gut feeling that something is wrong, but they can't put their finger on it


  1. Extreme rage, anger, feeling crazy, contempt, suspicion, excessive questioning and obsessive thinking


  1. Increased anxiety and depression, loss of self-esteem and confidence


  1. Physical symptoms such as insomnia, gut issues, headaches, even other serious health issues


  1. Checking their partner's phone, computer, and other technology to confirm their suspicions, not leaving their partner alone for fear of betrayal


  1. Excessive or increased neediness, clinging, or pulling back, refusing sexual intimacy


Don't be afraid to talk about this with your couples. Let them know help is available and marriages can be saved with some work on their part.
