Summary at a Glance

However, through my experience as a sex therapist and psychology researcher, I understand how openly discussing masturbation with clients has been incredibly beneficial for their mental health.

Masturbation offers a safe, judgment-free way to explore and understand your body without any risk of pregnancy or STIs.

Despite being a natural act, many people still feel awkward and embarrassed about masturbation.

And, with masturbation, there’s no need to worry about anyone else’s expectations or feel any pressure about sexual performance.

As a sex and relationship therapist, I am often asked: “How much masturbation is too much?” There is no right answer to that.
