I am a therapist specialising in kink-aware and sex-positive support for individuals, couples, and those in open or polyamorous relationships. No matter how you identify or the structure of your relationship, we will address issues like breakdowns in sexual relationships, loss of desire, mismatched libido, painful intercourse, erectile dysfunction, performance anxiety, or questions about your sexual identity. In addition, I provide support for sexual violence and complex trauma, and I help you reclaim your sexual wellbeing after trauma.
My therapeutic philosophy is rooted in partnership. I provide a secure space for exploration, questioning, and rebuilding, while working with you to identify and clarify your values.
Together, we'll examine social expectations about shame, sexuality, relationships, and identity. This process isn’t about fitting into someone else’s idea of who you should be. Instead, it is about discovering what genuinely feels right for you. You can reclaim your sexual self and build a life that matches who you are and what you want.

In our first sessions, we'll discuss your reasons for seeking therapy and develop a personalised treatment plan. I use an integrative approach within a sex-positive framework tailored to you. Clients often experience a reduction in shame and an increase in self-understanding within a few sessions. The focus is on empowerment and reclaiming your sexual self.
