I integrate specialist sexual health & HIV nursing experience, alongside evidence-based sex therapy for men struggling with problem sexual behaviours.
The terms sex & porn addiction are controversial. You may be surprised to hear they are not actual diagnoses. I do not work within the sex addiction model, but rather a sex-positive, sexual health approach based on evidence. Please visit my website to learn more.

I work with people experiencing compulsive sexual behaviour, or what is commonly called sex or porn addiction.
I use a sex positive, non-shaming approach to sex therapy and compulsive sexual behaviour. This means that we will look at what is causing the problem and why. It may be that you have some shame about what your authentic sexuality is. I use shame containment theory, which is designed to help you have a better relationship with yourself and others

I have a particular understanding of the unique joys and challenges GSRD (gender, sex, relationship diversity) clients may face and so am best suited to working with those who might find themselves minoritised or marginalised due to their LGBTQ+ identity.
Hi, I'm Cat, thank you for reading my profile. I offer pluralistic counselling either in-person at a central Peterborough location (PE1) or remotely online or via telephone. The work we do will vary according to your needs. Sessions typically take place weekly or bi-weekly. It is possible to work in the short-term (maybe 4-6 sessions) or in the longer-term with an ongoing alliance (1 year+) and anything in between!

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.
