About me
Hello and welcome. I’m an experienced psychotherapist and counsellor offering a warm, non-judgemental, safe and supportive space for individuals and couples.
If you are feeling stuck, isolated or overwhelmed, therapy can provide an opportunity to pause, make sense of what is happening for you, and develop healthier and more positive ways of coping. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process, and I will work with you to understand your experiences and explore what may be getting in the way of living the life you want.
I am a sex-positive, GSRD and kink-affirming therapist, supporting people to explore their sexuality, relationships and desires without shame or judgement. I specialise in problematic porn use and work with individuals and couples navigating sexual, relationship and intimacy difficulties.
My work is neuroaffirming, and I support adults exploring their experiences through the lens of neurodivergence, including Autism and ADHD. I recognise that everyone’s experiences are different, and my approach is compassionate, flexible and tailored to the individual or couple I am working with.
Taking the first step towards therapy can feel daunting, but you don’t have to do it alone. Please feel free to get in touch to discuss what you are looking for and whether therapy with me might be right for you.
Together, we can work towards meaningful and lasting change, helping you move from surviving to thriving.
If you would like to schedule a free initial 15-minute conversation to talk about what you are looking for, please email me at sarah@magnustherapy.co.uk or phone me. I respond to emails within two working days. If you do not hear from me by then, please check your spam folder.
