About me
Hi, I’m Candice, a qualified Psychosexual and Relationship Therapist (PGDip) and a registered member of COSRT.
Starting therapy is a courageous step toward deepening connections and understanding your needs. It’s natural to feel isolated when facing challenges in your sexual and intimate life, but you’re not alone. Together, we’ll explore your experiences, reconnect with your sexual well-being, and nurture healthy relationships. Your feelings are valid, and I’m here to listen.
My Approach
As an Integrative and Humanistic Therapist, I tailor my approach to your unique needs, guiding you through challenges and supporting meaningful change. With a background in humanitarian work, and in supporting victims of sexual abuse, I strive to create a warm, supportive, and uncensored environment, welcoming individuals from diverse cultures and experiences. I prioritise inclusivity, collaboration, and empowerment, embracing all gender identities, sexual orientations, and relationship structures. I am dedicated to ongoing learning and am currently pursuing an Advanced Diploma in Relationship Psychotherapy.
Psychosexual Therapy
Psychosexual Therapy, or Sex Therapy, focuses on overcoming sexual concerns in a safe, uncensored space. Whether you’re dealing with issues like sexual pain, erectile difficulties, or seeking to enhance your sexual well-being, I offer tailored support to help you navigate these challenges.
Areas of focus:
- Lack or Loss of Arousal/Desire
- Erectile and Ejaculation Issues
- Orgasm Difficulties
- Painful Sex

- Low Self-Esteem and Sexual Anxiety
- Kink and Fetish Identities
- Sexual Health Issues
- Gender and Sexual Identity Issues
Relationship Therapy
Positive relationships contribute significantly to overall well-being, yet they can still be challenging to navigate. Relationship Therapy provides a supportive space to explore your feelings and concerns, regardless of your relationship style. Together, we will address difficulties and foster healthier, more fulfilling connections.
Areas of focus:
- Communication Skills
- Conflict Management
- Intimacy Issues
- Trust and Betrayal
- Self-Esteem and Anxiety
- Exploring Non-Monogamy
