If you’ve not had individual therapy or counselling before, I urge you to try it. It provides a place where you can be seen, heard and understood in a way that is rare. The changes that happen are deep and long-lasting. I’ve worked with all sorts of issues, including abuse, trauma, family problems, gender dysphoria, self-harm, low self-esteem, disability, disordered eating, substance use, work stress, anxiety, depression and bereavement.

Couples therapy or relationship counselling is for any two people who want to improve their relationship. You don’t have to be married, or even in an intimate relationship. I work with the full range of relationship, sexual and gender diversity. Issues that are often addressed in my couples work include communication problems, loss of intimacy, parenting, infidelity, escalating arguments and financial disagreements.

If you are having problems with sex, psychosexual therapy (PST) can be very effective. Our sessions involve only talking, but I also give you exercises to do at home. Problems that can be resolved through PST include painful sex, erectile issues, rapid ejaculation and loss of desire. Most psychosexual problems are rooted in the relationship and are more effectively tackled if you and your partner come to therapy together.
