About Psychosexual Therapy
Are you suffering in silence with problems relating to your sex life, maybe too shy or embarrassed to discuss with anyone?
This doesn’t have to be the case and talking to a psychosexual therapist can help make sense of the situation and realise you are not alone.
I am an open minded, professional therapist who will do my best to help you feel at ease when discussing such intimate information.
There are many reasons why people experience sexual difficulties, we can explore all avenues and take positive steps to help improve this area of your life.
Many conditions like erectile dysfunction, delayed or premature ejaculation, painful sex (dyspareunia), vaginismus, inability to orgasm (anorgasmia) and lack of desire or arousal are just some of the many issues clients present. If you are in a relationship, it is best both partners consider attending, but I can see you individually if this is your preference.
This kind of talking therapy offers a directive approach, setting tasks for you at home and working with thorough feedback. We start with an assessment to ascertain the reasons behind the difficulties, often exploring the psychological influences behind the problem. If we decide to proceed with psychosexual therapy you will then be offered a treatment plan and meet at at regular intervals to assess progress.
Great results can be achieved with this type of therapy, improving the overall quality of your life.
What to expect
After an initial chat on the phone or mini Zoom meet, we will decide on whether to proceed and arrange our assessment sessions. This will be to find out more about you and gain some information about your background and history. It can take several weeks to gather this information and create a formulation for how we can work together and consider the next steps forward.
We will meet every week at the same time. Please be prepared as we move forward that a commitment of at least 1.5-3 hours a week for personal / practice work will be required.
If you would like to arrange a free 15 minute phone chat or mini Zoom meet, please contact me.
