About me and my therapy practice
Welcome, I am Victoria Kearns (she/her), a MBACP and COSRT registered Integrative Psychotherapist with specialist training in supporting couples and individuals with relationship and psychosexual problems. I offer a confidential and compassionate space in which you can explore and reflect on your challenges, the way in which these affect you and your hopes for change.
I support couples and individuals with relationship conflict and communication difficulties, challenges with empathy and emotional availability, repeated relationship patterns and with a range of psychosexual issues including increasing eroticism in your relationship, reconnecting with your sexuality, sexual pain, desire discrepancy, erection and ejaculation issues.
My approach is to work with you as a fellow traveller, helping you to discover what is happening for you either individually or in your relationship, revealing ways of thinking and behaving that don’t always serve you well and supporting you in finding routes to greater satisfaction, pleasure, joy and self-expression.
I am a culturally competent practitioner and support people in-person from my London Shoreditch and Watford Herts practices as well as online.
I commonly support clients with:
Relationship conflict
Communication difficulties
Emotional or physical intimacy issues
Repeated relationship patterns
Cheating/affairs and their aftermath
Exploring consensual non-monogamy
Finding greater joy in sex
Recovery from sexual trauma
Low desire and desire discrepancy
Challenges initiating sex
Painful intercourse
Vaginismus, vulvodynia, anodyspareunia
Erectile dysfunction and rapid ejaculation
Difficulties with arousal and orgasm
Fertility issues
Life transitions
Practice description
Talking therapy can help when you are feeling stuck, unhappy or in crisis, or looking to resolve an issue, either in relationships with other people or within yourself. Together, we may look into the past, reflecting on your childhood experiences, previous relationships or the dynamic between yourself and your partner. At other times we may imagine the future or focus on your felt experience in the here and now, and I may invite you to try different ways of connecting with yourself or others to facilitate change, if required.
In supporting you I see myself as a fellow traveller who wants the very best for you. Through reflection, exploration and sometimes challenge my aim is to support you in knowing and understanding yourself better, opening the way for new ways of connecting with yourself and with those you love.
My first session
Our initial 50-minute session is an assessment session. It provides the opportunity for you to share what has been happening for you and the changes you would like to make, to ask questions about how the therapy may unfold, and for us all to assess if it feels right to work together at this time.
