About Psychosexual Therapy.
Our sex lives and relationships face challenges, difficulties, ups and downs like everything else in life; but what isn’t aligned with everything else in life, is how little we talk about them. This lack of normalised conversation means so many of us simply do not know how to talk about these issues when they happen; leaving many feeling alone in their feelings and experiences. This is what makes Psychosexual and Relationship Therapy a unique and confidential space to have these conversations, with the aim of helping you to get to an improved state of sexual wellbeing, whatever that looks like for you.
There is a huge range of difficulties that people can encounter across the lifetime in their sex lives. Some may be short term, others more long lasting, issues may be acquired after a period of normal sexual functioning or may have been something that’s always been there. Sex is in context, meaning that it can be impacted by illness, injury, medications, our mental health and relationships as well as anything else that’s going on in our lives. This is why I adopt a biopsychosocial approach in therapy, which considers what's happening in a person’s biology, psychology and social world to gain a full picture of what they're struggling with.
As an Accredited Psychosexual Therapist and Certified Psycho-Sexologist I hold these therapeutic conversations within a boundaried, empathetic and professional environment, where we work together to help you to facilitate the potential for the changes that you want to make in your sex life and/or relationships.
