My practice is dedicated to supporting individuals through the complexities of relationships and sexuality, and in navigating the profound impact of trauma.
My therapeutic approach is broad and flexible; sessions may take place on the proverbial 'couch' or outside in nature, depending on what best supports your process. Either way, I offer support that's deeply informed not only by academic study, but also by my passion & experience of being huiman, across time, countries, and cultures.

Dr. Busangokwakhe Dennis Dlamini
General Counsellor, PhD
Puzzle about the nature and implications of their sexual orientation brings many LGBTI persons to seek counselling. They have little more than the negative stereotypes that pervade contemporary society and are frightened and isolated. This creates the felt pressure to conform to family and society's expectations. Frightened and isolated they need encouragement and reassurance, especially from their families who may themselves feel confused and disorientated - thus also in need of counselling. The LGBTI persons mostly need to be enabled to self-identify and be themselves.

Sex Therapy Therapists
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.
