Today, we're joined by Natalie Finegood Goldberg, an LMFT, licensed marriage and family therapist, and certified sex therapist based in Los Angeles. With her extensive experience in resolving sexual dysfunctions, including erectile dysfunction (ED), Natalie sheds light on the intricate relationship between performance anxiety and ED.

Performance anxiety triggers a cascade of panic hormones, diverting blood flow away from the penis due to the fight or flight response. This physiological reaction can hinder erectile function, exacerbating the anxiety loop. Addressing performance anxiety involves unpacking false beliefs, broadening the definition of sex, and cultivating a healthy mind-body connection.
