Well, I would probably ask her whether or not she would like to get some therapy. To do that you need her to admit to there being some kind of problem! If she says "Therapy? What would I need therapy for? I feel fine", then it would take some convincing to have her do it!
Anyway - if I were the therapist, and she was opposed to hypnosis, I'd tell her we weren't going to do hypnosis at all - only very deep relaxation. Ask her if it'd be alright for me to get her very relaxed. Assuming a yes, I'd take her deep into 'relaxation' - asking her at some point if it would be alright to take her even deeper. At this point one usually gets a yes, but must respect a no. Prior to all this, I'd conduct an interview, where I would have her tell me about her feelings about sex - or about not having sex. Then in trance I'd ask her to take herself back to the time where those feelings have their origin, and I'd see what was there and find a way to work around it with her. This is hypnotherapy.
I do think hypnotherapy would help in this case, but she'd need to say yes - perhaps not to hypnosis or hypnotherapy, but that is what I'd apply anyway. It's extremely effective.
There are many skilled hypnotherapists out there. You might want to find one in your area - or I would do it over the net, if that were required.
