Sex Therapists in Geelong, VIC
When people come to see me for therapy they're often feeling unseen, disconnected or emotionally exhausted in their relationships, day-to-day life or dating experiences. They may be experiencing communication breakdowns, "identity crises", low self-esteem, rejection sensitivity, people pleasing tendencies, sexual difficulties, burnout or confusion about what they’re truly wanting in life. I help couples and individuals understand themselves more deeply so that they can express themselves more effectively and connect more authentically in their relationships, whether that be with a partner, friends, their own children or family.

I have trained in relationship therapy, family therapy, attachment-based therapy, sex therapy and applied neuroscience.
You’re longing for a relationship that feels safe, connected, and honest, whether you’re navigating conflict, repair after infidelity, communication breakdowns, mismatched needs, or the complexity of being in a neurodiverse partnership. You want clarity, trust, and emotional grounding, but feel stuck in patterns you can’t shift alone. Attachment wounds, unresolved conflicts and unexpected triggers keep getting in the way. You're stuck in a vicious relationship spiral. You value depth, growth, and authentic connection, and you’re ready for support that honours your identities, your values, and the way you love.

Relationship troubles? Wondering if anything or anyone could help? You may be feeling alone, and doubtful - full of worry, guilt or shame at being here. But hearing more anger or blame as you withdraw emotionally only prolongs the problem & often makes things worse. It's lonely being in a relationship where the other person no longer feels 'present'. Ignoring the problems doesn't work, rather it pushes them underground where they fester. At this point you may be feeling raw, stressed, isolated, fearful or disillusioned. Tears & frustration one minute, anger the next. If rekindling love and connection is important to you, let's talk.

My work in the youth sector showed me how powerful healthy relationships are for children and families. After 23 years of marriage, I’ve lived through some of the same challenges many couples face. By choosing to be honest and curious and leaning into these practices, couples can shift from conflict to understanding, from distance to closeness. When we meet those moments with authenticity and a willingness to reconnect, relationships can grow in ways that ripple outward.

Sex Therapy
Who is sex therapy for?
Sex problems are common in relationships. Many people want a better sex life and want to feel loved and desired by their partner. It is difficult for couples to resolve sexual problems on their own because people often feel ashamed to talk about their sexual desires fearing they are not normal, when in fact a very broad range of preferences and behaviors are normal. A sex therapist can help clarify this and other matters.
Why do people need sex therapy?
Many people do not know how to talk about their erotic needs or their emotional needs, both of which are addressed in sex therapy. Couples often live with sexual difficulties for years before seeking help, and in that time, partners may experience so much disappointment and alienation that they may fear their problems mean they are incompatible. Once people experience disappointment, it is difficult to find resolution without help.
What happens in sex therapy?
People have many misconceptions about what takes place in sex therapy. First, it is a form of talk therapy in which partners discuss their sexual concerns; it does not involve touching or physical exploration of any kind. Sex therapy typically helps couples get comfortable talking to each other about sex so that, in the privacy of their home life, they can openly discuss their sexual desires and make decisions about what they want to do. Couples are typically assigned activities to do at home that build intimacy skills.
What kinds of problems do sex therapists treat?
Very often, partners differ in their degree of sexual desire and struggle over how often to have sex. Or they may have fights about porn use or have difficulty connecting sexually after one partner is unfaithful. Men may have problems with premature ejaculation. Women may find themselves struggling to become aroused or to achieve an orgasm. Sometimes partners feel like they have lost the sense of attraction to their partner. These are all common issues dealt with in sex therapy.
