  • sex education- understanding anatomy, arousal & how to access pleasure
  • disability and sex (life long and acquired)
  • attending to trauma and shame
  • changes in the body (pregnancy, menopause, aging and sexual pleasure).

I am a member of the College of Sexual and Relationship Therapists (COSRT) which is the largest accrediting body of Sex & Relationship Therapists in the UK.   I honour all gender, sexual orientations, and relationship diversities (GSRD). I am a queer, kink-knowledgeable therapist and I take a sex positive approach to compulsive sexual behaviours and pornography use.  This is a safe space for you.

Sexologists and Relationship Therapists are a particularly specialist and small group of Psychotherapists.

I am pluralistic in my approach, meaning that I draw on many different tools to meet the needs of the person/ people whom I am working with. I use the Bio/ Psycho/ Social model in approaching each individual’s problem to gain a comprehensive understanding of needs.
