Your GP is trained to deal with ED but they (and your cancer team) can also refer you to cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). Sex therapy and other types of counselling are also an option, though there may be a long wait so you may prefer to find a private accredited therapist through the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists.<\/p>\n

These therapies can help you manage how you feel about the changes you are going through, and help you think through how they impact your relationships. If you find it hard to communicate with your partner or are concerned about the impact of these changes on your relationship, you may be able to access couples therapy on the NHS or find someone privately.<\/p>\n
