WHO AM I?

I am an accredited clinical sexologist, integrative psychotherapist, EMDR therapist (trauma), clinical supervisor, researcher, educator and speaker. I have an ADHD brain, and I am a neurodiverse-affirming therapist. I am also a gender-affirming therapist. I have delivered my expertise across media, corporate and public platforms and am a globally recognised voice in the field of sex and relationships

.I work from a biopsychosocial perspective; assessing and treating clients through an integrative approach that explores the physiological, psychological and social factors behind their concerns. I look at the whole picture: your body, your mind, and the relationships and life around you. Alongside psychosexual and relationship therapy, I offer general psychotherapy and EMDR. For nearly 15 years I have provided my expertise for talk and print media, and facilitated academic, corporate and public workshops.

I run a global practice, consulting with clients from around the world, which means no matter where you are, you have access to psychosexual therapy. I also co-tutor at the Contemporary Institute of Clinical Sexology (CICS) (COSRT Accred.). 

I host the podcast Asking for a Friend (available on all major podcast platforms).
