Psychosexual Therapy

Many people and couples experience difficulties at times throughout their relationship which can impact how they relate emotionally and intimately.

Psychosexual therapy provides a space for individuals and/ or couples to talk and explore potentially sensitive areas in your relationship. Some problems may include:

Loss of sexual desire
Erectile dysfunction
Premature ejaculation
Painful intercourse
Sex avoidance
Vaginismus
Anorgasmia

Psychosexual therapy incorporates psychodynamic, person centred, cognitive behavioural therapy, mindfulness.

Mindfulness

Mindfulness based Cognitive Therapy, Mindfulness for Anxiety and Stress, Mindfulness for everyday... mindfulness has been discussed more and more over the recent years, there are many ways to incorporate mindfulness in to your life, there are formal (sittings & exercises) and informal ways.. I teach both as I believe mindfulness is for everyone.

Starting Therapy

I understand that starting therapy can be daunting, please feel free to phone or email me in the first instance.
After which if you are happy, we can arrange the first session at a mutually agreeable time. I prefer to provide weekly sessions, but understand that work commitments can sometimes make this challenging, so work to offer a flexible but structured service when possible.

Member organisations

school Registered / Accredited

Registered / Accredited

Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.

Accredited register membership

The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).

Further information

I am an accredited member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP) and the BABCP as such adhere to their ethical and professional framework.

As an experienced practitioner, I believe that the relationship (therapeutic alliance) between client and therapist is paramount to the success of any treatment. This provision of a safe non judgemental and empathic environment allows for therapeutic change to evolve. As a CBT Therapist and Integrative Counsellor I work on the ethos that each client is the professional of themselves and I bring the skills and knowledge of evidence based interventions.
