I have almost 10 years experience within several settings and am a chartered member with the PSI.

I also have extensive experience in working with queer LGBTQ+ identities, especially when it comes to the intersection of being queer and neurodivergent, while also bringing expertise in general sexuality, intimacy, kink, polyamory, and ethical non-monogamy.
In a few words, I identify as autistic, non-binary, queer, a video game fanatic, and occasionally an alternative drag/cabaret performer. My approach in counselling is guided by the idea that the main healing factor in any therapeutic process is the alliance between the counsellor and the client. I strive to be honest and authentic in my practice, while maintaining healthy boundaries, and I understand that the best psychologist for you is the one that is on the same wavelength as you, the one that just intuitively feels right.

Intimacy, ED, low sex drive, pornography and relationship or social challenges are all areas I specialise in.
Mental health challenges, men's issues and relationship difficulties are far more common than you might think. Far less common is the number of people courageous enough to overcome these challenges. The only way to overcome the challenges you're facing is to confront them head on. I know it takes a huge effort to do that but together, it can be achieved.

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.
