Vaginismus Therapy that Works with Dr. Kayla Jimenez
In today’s episode of Health Youniversity, we're breaking the silence around vaginismus—a condition that is rarely discussed openly.
Join us as Dr. Susan sits down with Dr. Kayla Jimenez, a clinical psychologist at Stanford School of Medicine and co-founder of Palmetto Psychology Clinic, who specializes in a revolutionary approach: therapist-assisted exposure therapy for vaginismus.
Vaginismus, a condition where involuntary pelvic floor contractions cause pain with penetration, has a stigma that leaves women to suffer in silence. Learn how the pain-avoidance cycle keeps women trapped in fear and shame for years—sometimes decades.
Dr. Kayla shares the surprisingly effective treatment that can help women overcome this condition in as few as 8-20 sessions. She explains that while it's not "all in your head" psychological factors do matter. And she reports that high-achieving, perfectionist women are often the most affected by the distress of not being able to "fix" this problem on their own.
This episode is perfect for women experiencing painful intercourse or unable to use tampons, anyone struggling with pelvic exams or fertility treatments, healthcare providers who want to better support their patients, or loved ones who want to understand and help someone silently suffering.
