Sexual Dysfunctions

Sexual health is a state of physical, emotional, mental, and social well-being; it is not merely the absence of disease or dysfunction. My practice is built on bridging the gap between physical symptoms and the emotional experience.

​

Understanding the Threshold of Dysfunction

In clinical sexology, for a concern to be formally diagnosed as a sexual dysfunction, it typically needs to meet specific criteria regarding duration (often six months or more), frequency, and—most importantly—significant personal or relational distress.

However, sexual health exists on a spectrum. You do not need to meet a formal diagnostic threshold for your experiences to be "valid" or for your suffering to be addressed. Whether you are experiencing a persistent clinical disorder or a temporary "rough patch" in your intimacy, my role is to help you:

​

• Determine the difference:

       We clarify whether you are facing a physiological problem, a psychological block, a natural response to life stressors or a 

       combination of factors.

​

• Bridge Medical & Physical Care:

       I provide the psychosomatic support that runs alongside medical and physiotherapy interventions, ensuring your mind is as       

       prepared for healing as your body.

​

• Empowerment through Management:

       I equip you with the tools to manage symptoms and overcome challenges, moving you from a state of distress to one of agency 

       and pleasure.

​

My Scope of Practice Includes:

• Desire & Arousal:

       inhibited libido, erectile challenges and lubrication difficulties.

​

• Orgasm & Resolution:

       anorgasmia, early ejaculation, hypersensitivity

​

• Pain Management: 

       vaginismus and dyspareunia.

​

• Adaptive Intimacy:

       differently-abled bodies, chronic illness, injury

​

• Trauma & Regulation:

       sexual, medical, physical, emotional trauma, stress, performance anxiety, fear, guilt, shame

​

As an inclusive and collaborative professional, I work in tandem with your healthcare team. Whether you are seeing a physiotherapist for pelvic floor work or a doctor for hormonal support, I provide specialised, evidence-based care needed to align your mental state with your physical recovery.

​

Combining sensate focus touch, TRE, and counselling, your healing is not just a medical or physical process, but an experience of empowerment.
