It's a non-judgemental space where you can discuss and explore your challenges, concerns, and questions surrounding intimacy, relationships, sexuality, sexual health, and well-being.

People go to sex therapy for many different reasons which can include-

• problems with emotional intimacy

• physical issues- pain, dysfunction, or ejaculation concerns

• inability to orgasm

• arousal issues

• gender identity exploration and/or dysmorphia

• difficulties forming or maintaining relationships

• life changes- childbirth; surgery; menopause; grief; empty nesters and changes in anatomy

• kink or fetish exploration

• sexual compulsions/out of control sexual behaviours (formally called sex addiction)

• post traumatic growth

After trauma has occurred and has been processed, you are supported to explore, reclaim and/or rediscover your sexuality in a safe, informed and compassionate environment. 

Couples go to therapy for a variety of different reasons which can include-

• infidelity and/or trust issues

• a lack of emotional closeness or sexual intimacy

• different sex drives

• a change in relationship dynamics

• a change in lifestyle- childbirth, surgery/health, menopause, empty nesters, retirement

• support surrounding the exploration of kinks or fetishes
