Services

Counselling and Psychotherapy

I offer counselling for anyone over the age of 16.

My specialist areas are largely: anxiety, depression, trauma, low self-esteem, bereavement, end of life diagnosis, relationship concerns, sexual difficulties and issues around sexuality.

I work with everyone irrespective of sexuality, identity, gender and relationship choices, health conditions, or impairments.

Relationship Therapy

I offer relationship therapy, including marriage and couple counselling and divorce counselling.

Issues with which I can assist couples are: resolving communication issues and conflicts; rebuilding relationships after infidelity; dealing with anxiety, stress and depression in a relationship; handling neurodiversity in a relationship; managing parenting issues; finding a way through jealousy and anger; managing loss of attraction or libido; supporting people through separation and divorce to avoid costly and adversarial court processes.

I work with all relationships, not just heterosexual ones.

Psychosexual Therapy

I am in my final year of a masters degree (Level 7) in contemporary psychosexual therapy.

I can assist clients (whether individuals or couples) with issues including: desire discrepancy, sexual communication difficulties, erectile dysfunction, premature and delayed ejaculation, performance anxiety, dyspareunia (difficult or painful sex), fertility issues, menopause, vaginismus, sexual orientation and gender questioning.

Psychosexual therapy is a talking therapy designed to establish what the issues are, how they arose, what is maintaining them, how to remedy them and involving guided homework tasks designed to achieve just that. It is a means of improving intimacy, connection, confidence and communication (where necessary) as well as improving sexual interaction. Please note that the way to remedy psychosexual issues can be counter-intuitive. The remedies that individuals and couples instinctively attempt can make the issue worse, especially if anxiety is involved. In general, it’s wise to see a professional as soon as possible. Psychosexual counselling is for anyone, regardless of age, sexual orientation, gender, relationship status, cultural or religious background.
