About me and my therapy practice
As well as general counselling I also offer psychosexual and relationship therapy. Both for individuals and couples and groups.
My training is based on the integrative homeodynamic model which is a humanistic model of psychosexual therapy. It’s a model based on sexual health rather than a focus on sexual dysfunction.
It integrates current thinking across multi-disciplinary fields, including psychotherapy, systemic therapy, neuroscience, cognitive-behavioural therapy, complementary therapies, and traditional Eastern and Western sexual and relationship theory.
The homeodynamic model for sexuality is sex positive; it promotes the pleasure principle and challenges sexual shame. I explore all dynamics of mind, body, brain and emotions, individually and in depth, with a focus on sexuality and general emotional wellbeing.
Practice description
I have experience of seeing clients from all backgrounds and a variety of presenting issues, for example but not restricted to:
General counselling and psychotherapy:
• Anxiety and depression
• Stuckness and lack of meaning
• Personal development and self-esteem concerns
• Life stages and crises
• Work stresses
• Relationship issues
Couples work:
• Affairs and infidelities and post affair recovery
• Cultural differences and expectations
• Sexual differences
• Communication difficulties
• Facilitating separation/divorce (esp with children involved)
Psychosexual therapy:
• Addiction
• Erectile dysfunction
• GPPD (what used to be called vaginismus).
• Gender identity
• Coming out
• Transgender issues
• Historical rape
• Sexual trauma
• Trauma from illnesses (cancer, ulcerative colitis) affecting sexuality.
My first session
The first session is a "getting to know each other" time. It's important both therapist and client(s) feel comfortable and the trust and "fit" is there. This underpins the relationship and leads to transparency, honesty and safety to be yourself. This way therapeutic progress and developing self-awareness will come as a matter of course.
I will answer any questions you may have and complete an emotional needs audit to address specifically which areas to explore, look at, and heal.
I will ask you what your goals are for therapy and how I can help.
