Psychosexual Therapy
Or Sex therapy as it is more commonly know is a talking therapy. It recognises the importance of the brain in sexual functioning. Thoughts, feelings and beliefs have a direct relationship with the body and its function. I work integratively with clients using a range of tools and techniques. Where appropriate I give couples or individuals behavioural exercises to work on at home.
I work with a range of issues including:
Loss sexual desire
Arousal difficulties
Orgasmic or anorgasmic problems
Compulsive sexual behaviours
Erectile difficulties such as rapid or delayed ejaculation
Vaginismus
Dyspareunia (pain during intercourse)
Phobias and aversions
Sexual abuse and trauma
Anxiety surrounding sex, relationships and intimacy
Sexual orientation insecurities and questions
Relationship Therapy
Relationships with others form the cornerstone of human experience, and create a sense of well-being. Disharmony or breakdown in a relationship, whether intimate, social or in the workplace, is often the final straw that pushes people to seek help. Frequently, by the time a relationship breaks down, we are no longer in a position to recognise the difference between the other person's emotions and behaviours and our own. The therapeutic process helps individuals to first re-connect with their own sense of personal identity. In order to enjoy satisfying relationships with others, we need to be in a satisfactory relationship with ourselves. Those conflicts, which reside within us, are often painful and destructive to others and ourselves.
I am an Imago Relationship Therapist and use this model as the frame for my couples’ work.
I work with couples and individuals with a range of issues including:
Past relationship issues
Issues surrounding infidelity
Communication issues
Commitment issues
Impact of children on the couple relationship
Separating/ divorce
General relationship difficulties
Psychedelic Integration
Psychedelic experiences can be profound opportunities for personal transformation, offering deep insights and avenues for growth. However, they can also be complex and challenging to navigate. I provide a supportive, and confidential space to help individuals prepare for and integrate these experiences, whether through psychedelics or spiritual awakenings. Preparation and integration are essential to ensure that the lessons and insights gained are effectively incorporated into daily life for meaningful change.
Psychedelic Integration, often called “the journey after the journey,” is the process of understanding and applying the wisdom and challenges of a psychedelic experience. Integration sessions help you reflect on themes, explore personal meanings, and develop strategies to nurture growth. Similarly, proper preparation is vital to creating the right mindset and environment for the experience, ensuring safety and intentionality. With training from the Institute of Psychedelic Therapy, I provide guidance and tools to help you approach these transformative states with awareness and navigate the path to healing and self-discovery.
Kindly refrain from contacting me with requests for illegal psychedelic-assisted work. My services are strictly limited to preparation and integration support for harm reduction purposes. I do not endorse or encourage the use of illicit substances in unregulated or illegal contexts.
Additionally, I host The Psychedelic Couch, a podcast exploring the therapeutic potential of expanded states of consciousness and their role in healing.
