Not at all. Erectile difficulties are more common than you think and can happen at any point in life. Stress, pressure to perform, fatigue — many factors can play a role. Together, we'll explore what's going on and find solutions that fit you.
Not necessarily. Desire fluctuates over time and can be influenced by physical, emotional, or relational dynamics. Sex therapy helps you reconnect with your desires, understand what's going on, and find your way back to a fulfilling sex life — whatever that means for you.
Pain during sex should never be ignored. It may have physical, emotional, or psychological roots — or a mix of all three. We'll take the time to understand what your body is telling you and explore ways to bring back comfort and trust in your sexual experience.
Absolutely. Difficulties with orgasm or ejaculation can be addressed with empathy and practical tools. The goal is not "performance," but helping you feel more in tune with your sensations, your body, and your pleasure.
This is a common issue in couples. Together, we can explore the dynamics at play and work on restoring a sense of connection, understanding, and mutual desire — without pressure or blame.
These feelings are completely valid and deserve to be heard. Therapy offers a safe space to unpack them, understand where they come from, and move towards a more peaceful and confident experience of your sexuality.
Arguments around intimacy often mask deeper needs. I can help you both learn to express your desires more openly, listen to each other with empathy, and rebuild emotional and sexual closeness.
There's no one-size-fits-all answer. What I offer is a space to explore your feelings, without pressure, so you can decide that's aligned with your needs, values, and emotional truth.
We can absolutely work on this. Shyness often stems from self-esteem or past experiences. Together, we'll explore ways to strengthen your confidence and help you feel more at ease in your interactions.
Fantasies are a natural and important part of our inner erotic world. In therapy, you can talk about anything — safely, without judgment — including the things you've never dared to say out loud.
That's completely okay. Exploring your identity is a deeply personal journey. My role is to support you in that exploration with care, curiosity, and respect — at your pace.
Yes, and you don't have to do it alone. Together, we'll gently unlearn the limiting beliefs that no longer serve you, and help you reconnect to a more positive, empowered vision of your sexuality.
Attraction outside of a relationship isn't necessarily a crisis — but it can raise big questions. We can unpack what this situation reflects for you, what's missing or shifting, and how to navigate it with clarity and integrity.
No, not at all. That's a very common concern, and the answer is simple: there is no nudity, and no physical contact in sex therapy. It's a talk-based approach, just like any other psychotherapy — the difference is that we focus on topics related to intimacy, and relationships.
If helpful, I might suggest exercises for you to do at home, either on your own or with your partner. But here in session, we talk — with care, curiosity, and respect for your pace.
Absolutely not. We go at your own pace. You share what you want, when you feel ready. There's no pressure or obligation. Talking about sexuality can be delicate — and that's normal. With time, listening, and kindness, the conversation opens up naturally.
Yes, absolutely — I offer teleconsultations via video, and a few clients find this format convenient and effective.
Some live far away — in Africa, southern Europe, or even Canada — and online sessions allow us to work together despite the distance. Others choose teleconsultation for practical reasons, like juggling work, parenting, or a busy schedule.
It can also be a good option for people who are publicly visible or well-known and want to keep their care private. And for some, it's a way to ease into the therapeutic process — to test the waters before stepping into the room.
That said, when possible, I find it valuable to meet in person at least once. There's a unique depth that comes from being physically present together — small cues, energies, and nonverbal signals that enrich the therapeutic relationship.
But whether online or in person, what matters most is that you feel safe, heard, and supported — and we'll build that trust wherever you are.
🖥️ You can book a video consultation directly via DoctorAnytime.
Yes, absolutely. If you're already working with a psychologist, urologist, gynecologist, or another professional, that's totally fine. We'll simply make sure that my support fits well into your overall care.
Yes, of course. I work with people from all backgrounds and identities. Whether you're exploring gender, orientation, non-monogamy, BDSM/kink, or simply questioning, you'll find here a safe, open-minded space free of shame or judgment.
Some mutual insurance providers in Belgium do offer partial reimbursement when you consult a certified sexologist affiliated with the SSUB (Société des Sexologues Universitaires de Belgique) — which I am.
Here are a few examples (please double-check with your own provider):
• Partenamut: up to €400/year (€20/session, max. 20 sessions)
• Mutualité Chrétienne: up to €360/year, or €960/year with Medi+
• Mutualité Libérale: up to €160/year (€20/session, 8 sessions)
💡 Always contact your mutualité to verify what's available for your situation.
Yes. If you're supported by the CPAS, you can request a 'réquisitoire' and book your sessions through the Iris Sud hospital in Etterbeek, where I also work. The 'réquisitoire' allows the hospital to bill the CPAS directly, so your sessions are fully covered.
📍 For more information or to book through the hospital:
👉 Lirim Tasdelen at Iris Sud
• 👉 LIRIM is pronounced [liʀim], like "lyric" but with an M at the end—think of it as a melody that ends smoothly. 🎶
• 👉 TASDELEN is pronounced [tasdelɛn], like "Tass" + "Dylan", as if Bob Dylan had a tasse (French for cup) of coffee! ☕🎸
✨ Fun fact: Lirim means "freedom"—a fitting sign for a therapist who helps people break free from stereotypes, rediscover their sexuality, and embrace their true selves.
I was born and raised in Belgium. My native language is French, and I also speak English, Serbian, Croatian, with good knowledge of Dutch and some basic German. My identity reflects my practice: open, diverse, and without borders.
Of course. You can come alone, even if the issue concerns your relationship or partner. Sometimes, working on yourself first can shed new light on the relationship. And if you'd like to have a session together later, that's completely possible too.
Yes, I also support teenagers and young adults — especially when it comes to questions around identity, relationships, body image, and early exposure to pornography, which can have a significant impact.
Sessions are tailored to their age and needs, always within a safe, confidential, and respectful environment that encourages expression and self-awareness.
Absolutely. Parents are welcome to attend the first session if that helps the teen feel more comfortable. After that, depending on their age and preference, I may suggest individual sessions to give them space to speak freely — always respecting their privacy, while maintaining open communication with you when appropriate.
