Abstract: The study examined orgasmic disorder as correlates of Sexual Satisfaction among couples in tertiary institutions in Benue State – Nigeria. Correlational survey design was adopted for the study. The population of the study was 2626 academic staff while 322 married academic staff were sampled using multi-stage sampling procedure for all the 9 tertiary institutions in Benue State for the study. The instruments for data collection used in the study were Couple Satisfaction Index (CSI) and Sexual Functioning Questionnaire (SFQ) with reliability coefficients of 0.793 for Couple Satisfaction Index (CSI) and 0.0675 for Sexual Functioning Questionnaire (SFQ) respectively. Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient (PPMC) was used to test hypotheses at 0.05 significance. The result showed that there is a significant negative relationship between orgasmic disorder and marital satisfaction. Based on the findings, it is suggested that treatment plans for couples with orgasmic disorder should consider the client’s connection with their spouse, recognizing the interdependence between the two. Counsellors can utilize a Mindfulness-Based approach to help couples identify their thoughts and feelings, model adjustments, and offer encouragement during therapy. This facilitates the development of acceptance, compassion, and control over intrusive and ruminative thoughts.
