A revolutionary
approach to
Sexual Therapy
Embodied Sexual Therapy™ is a revolutionary approach that integrates medical science, somatic therapy, and sexual well-being to help individuals cultivate a healthy, empowered relationship with their bodies and pleasure.
Rooted in trauma-informed care and a deep understanding of the body-mind connection, my personal approach to Sex Therapy provides a structured, body-based pathway to healing past experiences, enhancing intimacy, and reclaiming sexual confidence.
Recognising that pleasure is medicine and that we do not exist in isolation, Embodied Sexual Therapy acknowledges the deep connection between mind, body, and the rhythms of the natural world. This transformational framework supports individuals in restoring trust in their bodies, deepening connection, and expanding their capacity for pleasure and fulfilment.
Understanding your body and your experiences is a powerful first step toward creating change — and that's exactly what sex therapy offers.

The following are brief descriptions of common concerns I work with.
This information isn’t here to diagnose you, but to help you feel seen and informed— and if you’re drawn to this approach, I invite you to book a session and take the next step toward more empowered pleasure.
Anorgasmia (Difficulty or Inability to Orgasm)
Anorgasmia refers to the ongoing challenge of reaching orgasm despite sufficient arousal and stimulation. I work with you by exploring your sexual response cycle—from arousal and plateau to that transformative moment when feeling safe allows you to surrender to pleasure. I often remind my clients that an orgasm is like a glimpse into divinity—a moment of connection with your truest self.
Together, we gently explore where you might be feeling stuck—whether that’s physical tension, emotional blocks like shame or guilt, or a combination of both.
For physical support, I may suggest a referral to a pelvic floor physiotherapist who can assess for issues like muscle tightness or trigger points. A GP can also be consulted for a medical review, including hormone levels or other underlying factors. In this collaborative process, we work on enhancing body awareness and embracing the potential for pleasure in every moment.
Mismatched Libido (Differences in Sexual Desire Between Partners)
It’s not unusual for partners to experience different levels of sexual desire at various times. These differences can sometimes lead to feelings of frustration or disconnect. I see mismatched libido as an opportunity to deepen emotional intimacy and enrich communication between partners.
In our sessions, we explore each partner’s natural rhythm of desire, understanding that these ebbs and flows are a normal part of life. I facilitate open conversations where both of you can share your needs, desires, and fears.
We look for creative ways to bridge the gap—whether that means discovering new shared activities, building in moments of sensuality, or simply learning to appreciate each other’s unique pace. The aim is to help both partners feel understood and connected, transforming differences into opportunities for growth.
Painful Intercourse (Dyspareunia & Vulvodynia)
Pain during intimacy can create a cycle of fear, tension, and discomfort. Whether it’s due to vaginal dryness, muscle tension, infections, or conditions like endometriosis, painful intercourse often has multiple layers—physical, emotional, and relational.
I guide you through understanding your unique pain cycle. We work on techniques to gently reintroduce comfort into your intimate moments and explore how factors like fear and tension might be playing a role. I may recommend working with a pelvic floor physiotherapist to evaluate issues like vaginismus or muscle spasms, and encourage a GP examination to check for underlying conditions. At the same time, I help you reframe the experience, finding creative and compassionate ways to bring pleasure into the bedroom—even if pain has been part of your past story.
Premature Ejaculation
Premature ejaculation can sometimes leave you feeling frustrated or disconnected from the full pleasure of intimacy. I approach this concern by inviting you to shift your focus from performance to the overall, embodied experience of pleasure.
Together, we work on techniques that help you tune into your body’s natural rhythm—using mindfulness, gentle somatic practices, and relaxation methods to ease anxiety and tension. By reframing your sexual response, you learn to savor each sensation rather than worrying about “getting it right.”
While I don’t prescribe medications, I can advocate for a conversation with your GP about a medication review if that might be helpful. Sometimes, a combined approach that includes counseling or sex therapy can provide additional support as you learn new ways to experience intimacy. This integrated approach is designed to help you feel more in control and fully present during your intimate moments.
Low Libido (Reduced Sexual Desire)
Low libido is a natural part of the human experience—much like the ebb and flow of the seasons. You might notice this during times of postpartum adjustment, high stress, major life transitions, or perimenopause. It’s completely normal for your sexual desire to have its peaks and troughs.
In our work together, I help you reconnect with your innate capacity for pleasure. We explore physical factors that may be at play while also gently examining any emotional or relational elements.
When acute mental health concerns such as depression or anxiety arise, I work collaboratively with your GP and psychologist to ensure you have comprehensive support. The focus is on understanding what the current lull means for you and your relationship, and how we might nurture a pathway back to a vibrant, satisfying connection.
