I have had this problem and went to a psychologist about it. It was a combination of talking about past experiences, attitude to sex, upbringing & parents - and - pelvic floor exercises, using inserts to get used to the idea of penetration and a suggestion to use a vibrator.

I actually didn't get over the problem however but I didn't really like the Dr so I didn't continue with the "programme".
