It was meant to be rainbows and fairytales, not discussions around housework, money and sex - or friends and inlaws!
Working through your traumas whilst in the room together can help each other see what is happening for you. Empathy and understanding can be shared. It can be tricky to do, and I can help you do that. Communication is about comprehension and understanding each other, not just talking. This is where most relationships struggle, the misalignment.

Every person deserves a private, non-judgmental space to explore aspects of identity, sexuality, and relationships.
As a therapist, I offer Individual & Couples Therapy for Adults. Relationships encompass both hurt & healing. Establishing secure therapeutic connection fosters confidentiality, empathy, & understanding, facilitating change & solutions for personal issues. People possess the ability to solve problems, but this can be hindered by trauma, depression, anxiety, self-criticism, low self-esteem, relational conflict, or general life problems. I believe in every person's potential to explore their inner being, find courage, direct their lives & relationships meaningfully - ultimately, the cornerstone of our existence is meaning & purpose!

I work with people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or caught in patterns they can’t break—particularly around substance use, mental health, and emotional regulation.

Some are in recovery and want to stay on track; others know something needs to change. I provide a structured, trauma-informed space where you’re supported and challenged, building insight, coping skills, and real-life strategies to help you regain control and move forward.

I work with adults navigating sexuality, identity, relationships, ND, sexual trauma and domestic violence recovery.
My approach is relaxed but attentive. I won't be a blank slate, I’ll likely be drinking tea and I might take my shoes off (you can too), if you want to turn the big lights off and sit on the floor we can also do that. We can swear and laugh (necessary sometimes) but I'll take your healing seriously and make sure we're on the right path for it to happen.

As a Sex and Relationship Therapist specialising in neurodivergence, I support late-diagnosed autistic and ADHD adults in understanding themselves better so they can then build the life and relationships that don't tolerate but nurture and celebrate who they are.
In a hybrid of therapy and coaching, I help clients get clear on their core values, dreams and life purpose, whatever that means to them. From there, we map out what it will take to build the life and relationships that reflect this, one step at a time. With couples, I often serve as a "translator", guiding them on how to speak one another's language.

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.
