Are you struggling with feelings of shame and fear? Worried about not being enough? These feelings often leave us stuck, not knowing how to proceed with life, complicating relationships, and filling us with anxiety. My work helps you to live a better life.

After 20 years of working with clients, what I usually hear on the first appointment is fear and self-doubt about one's own ability to get over one's difficulties. Lots of reasons are given to about why they think they can't change including: "I've been ill too long - nobody's been able to help me; how can you possibly help"?, "I have a chronic mental illness and I have been told that nobody can recover", "I have tried to use CBT before and it didn't work - nothing worked", "I'm worse than the other clients you have seen". I will tell you that all these statements are false beliefs. Clients who have said this still changed!

Or, do you struggle with a decrease in your desire for intimacy, have problems with sexual arousal or struggle with performance anxiety ? If you find yourself saying 'yes' to any of these questions, treatment with a qualified sex and relationship therapist like myself might be right for you.

Are you a mom struggling to cope with the multiple demands of caring for your children during these uncertain times? Have you recently given birth and think you might be struggling with postpartum depression or anxiety? Are you having a hard time reconnecting either emotionally or sexually with your partner?
