I work with people that are individually unique, not just labels or diagnoses
I warmly welcome all potential clients who may wish to benefit from an Integrative approach, (meaning one therapy size/approach does not fit all), I can choose from a number of therapy models and often use Compassionate Focused therapy in conjunction with e.g. Cognitive behavioural therapy. I am understanding and empathic and also able to gently challenge behaviours that are not helpful in achieving your goals. Humor is often experienced between myself and clients, when appropriate and it can help to lighten your load in this funny old world. We can equally share the sadness of loss and the threat of fear.
I have been providing Psychosexual Therapy for 19 years, currently I work 'exclusively' online. I work UK wide, having many clients from Edinburgh, Glasgow, London, Belfast and now include Portugal. I specialise in treating various difficulties (see menu) and work within a sunny atmosphere of respect, kindness, acceptance, hope and confidentiality. I provide online Relationship therapy, Psychosexual therapy for sexual problems and Sex/porn addiction problems. I never forget how painful, emotional distress can lead to feeling vulnerable and afraid. I have learned that nobody wants to think they are vulnerable, or feel emotionally vulnerable. Here is a link to The power of vulnerability by Brene Brown - an outstanding Ted talk.
Let me help you find strength and courage to move forward from (whatever problem you have), closer to a calmer, more positive way of being. I will never judge you. My job is not to judge, but to understand you, to find the best way to help you. Sexual acts are part of all human behaviour and I am comfortable with the material that clients bring to their sessions.
Legal Sexual behaviours I work to prevent the start of Sexual offending or recurring offending I offer a specialised 'treatment program for (mostly men) and separatley with their traumatised partners. Importantly, this is about your own safety as well as the safety of others and we have to wake you up to all you have to lose, to help change your behaviours.
