Popis:	The need for psychosexual services and preferences regarding these were explored using a questionnaire in patients (n = 868) attending two sexual health clinics in London, UK. Patients were asked whether they were currently receiving help for their sexual problems, whether they would like help for these and, if so, where they would like to receive this. Thirty-six percent (n = 321) of patients reported a sexual problem. However, only 7% (n = 22) of patients reporting a sexual problem were receiving help, despite almost half of patients wanting this. The majority (60%) of patients indicated a preference for treatment at sexual health clinics, although a proportion (20%) wanted services to be available at their GP practice. Results suggest a significant need and desire for psychosexual services to be available in sexual health clinics in the UK. Implications for the provision and commissioning of sexual health services within the context of competing demands are discussed.
