Rediscovering Intimacy

Sexual problems often break relationships apart.

Your partner not wanting sex leaves you feeling rejected.

Unreliable erections can make you feel less of a man.

Having low desire can make you feel pressured and stressed.

Pain during sex can lead you to avoid all intimacy.

It doesnt have to be this way.

As a Psychosexual Therapist, I help clients with Psychosexual difficulties overcome intimacy problems and build a pleasurable, playful relationship with their bodies.

It can be difficult to know where to start when seeking help for a sexual issue. Many people feel ashamed of their sexual difficulties, or worry about being judged. Other people may feel embarrassed about not knowing the right words for things, or what is ‘normal’.

I work from a sex positive perspective, where I celebrate everyone’s personal choice to have the sex life that they would like to have. For some people, this may be having very little sex or no sex at all, and for other it may be seeking sexual intimacy in new ways. Everyone is different, and there is no right or wrong way to have a sex life. It is your right to choose.

I work at your pace, and focus on what you are comfortable discussing. In my 8 session model however I often see clients noticing positive change within a few sessions. I may suggest practical and behavioural self-help exercises that empower you and allow you to continue your work between sessions.

 Furthermore, I try to offer the chance to think about your sex life in a new light, away from society’s norms and messaging, and I provide sex education where helpful.

Psychosexual Therapy is a talking therapy and I will never ask you to remove your clothes or show me parts of your body. Any suggested exercises are for you to do at home, in between sessions.
