Out of office until June 1st - I will reply to inquiries on my return to work. 8 session block of therapy available for £600 - limited time offer. I am a Cognitive Behavioural Therapist, a Clinical Sexologist and a Relationship Therapist. I understand therapy can be daunting, especially when discussing intimacy and sexual issues. Creating a safe, non-judgmental space is central to my work, allowing you to explore your experiences openly. Psycho-sexual therapy can support emotional wellbeing, strengthen relationships and enhance your sex life.
I work with clients of any gender on issues such as orgasm issues, erection problems, premature/early ejaculation, delayed ejaculation, low desire, pain and penetration problems (e.g. vaginismus, vestibulodynia, vulvodynia), compulsive sexual behaviour, gender identity, kink and fetish exploration, this list isn't exhaustive so please reach out to hear more.
I really appreciate finding the right therapist for you can be daunting so I am happy to organise a free initial call. I have no 'set amount' of sessions or tie-in, I believe the most important part of therapy is the relationship itself, you're welcome to email me to ask any questions and we can have a chat to see if we are a good fit to work together.

I work with people who would like to discuss issues relating to their sex life, relationships, gender identity and sexual identity. Therapy will look different for everyone as none of us are the same. I work in a client-led manner, as you are the expert on yourself, so we can collaborate together to ensure you receive the support that works best for you.
