I specialise in helping individuals with sexual behaviour they feel is compulsive or out of control, including problematic porn use and sex addiction.
I am Kink and poly informed and friendly and, whilst these can be a part of a client's life, I know it is not always the reason clients come to therapy.

As an integrative sex therapist I will use a variety of techniques and approaches.
My approach is particularly supportive for people dealing with health-related sexual concerns - such as erectile dysfunction, hormonal changes, chronic pain conditions, or the sexual impacts of illness, medication, or surgery. I have a special interest in hormonal health and have worked closely with many men experiencing erectile dysfunction. I understand the complex emotional and physical impact it can have. Whether you’re feeling disconnected from your body, struggling with low desire, dealing with performance anxiety, or healing after injury or illness, I provide a non-judgmental space to explore and move forward at your pace.

I am a sex positive & inclusive practitioner.
Many of the people I support feel disconnected from their bodies, desires, sense of worth and their relationships. Therapy is a space where we slow things down, make sense of what happened, & gently reclaim choice, safety, & connection. Together using a trauma informed & integrated approach, we work towards better emotional regulation & authenticity.

I work with couples who have heard about the benefits of EFT—Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy. This powerful approach helps couples reconnect by unraveling repetitive communication patterns.

In each session, I create a supportive space where I listen attentively, ensuring both partners feel understood. I guide you through the process of exploring your emotions and patterns, helping you rebuild emotional security and strengthen your bond as a couple.

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.
