Therapy for Growth and Balance

Psychosexual Therapy

Sexual difficulties can affect anyone at any stage of life and may have a profound impact on self-esteem, relationships, and overall well-being. While it can feel daunting to seek help, talking with a trained psychosexual therapist can be an important step toward understanding and resolving these issues.

My aim is to help you to experience sexuality as a joyful and integral part of who you are, focusing on sensuality and pleasure rather than societal or cultural expectations.

We will consider if any medical advice or treatment from your GP is necessary or not.

My hope is to offer you a safe, confidential space to explore your experiences, beliefs, and feelings about sex and intimacy.

I work with both individuals and couples, helping them navigate a wide range of sexual and relational concerns, such as:

  • Difficulties with desire or arousal
  • Painful sex (including vaginismus or vulval pain)
  • Erection or ejaculation difficulties
  • Orgasm difficulties
  • Low libido
  • Anxiety or avoidance related to sex
  • Sexual shame or identity concerns
  • Compulsive sexual behaviour
  • The impact of childhood sexual abuse or trauma
  • Changes in sexuality linked to menopause, ageing, or illness
  • Gender and sexual diversities
  • Concerns about sexual pleasure, health, or well-being

How we might explore:

In our sessions, my aim is to work with you to find effective ways for you to address your primary concerns and experience lasting change. I use a range of approaches and techniques, including negotiated practice exercises to explore between sessions. These might involve reflective activities, communication exercises, or guided techniques that help you integrate insights from therapy into your daily life.

Sessions may include:
• Behavioural exercises such as self-help techniques, mindfulness, or meditation
• Identifying and challenging unhelpful beliefs or thought patterns
• Sex education and psychosexual awareness
• Enhancing communication and emotional connection
• Developing and practising new relational or personal skills

The overall aim is to enhance feeling truly connected to yourself and your partner.

Book an online or in-person session with me

When beginning therapy, I will suggest we have a brief initial phone call to discuss why it is you seek therapy now, your expectations and for me to answer any questions. This is a free call.

Testimonials

“I have been working with Lisa for almost 4 years, every session brings up something new to think about and discover. Started with Lisa to explore one aspect of myself/my relationship but we delved so much deeper and wider than what I thought the initial ‘problems’ were. From our first session, I felt heard and understood. Lisa’s approach is both professional and compassionate, making it easier for me to open up about my concerns. Lisa is supportive and challenges me (in a good way). I am enjoying learning about myself in a safe environment, Lisa’s insightful guidance and practical advice has helped me navigate through some challenging times. I appreciate the flexibility of online sessions, which allows me to fit therapy into my work schedule
“I highly recommend Lisa to anyone seeking support and personal growth. Her expertise and genuine care have been invaluable to me”
“It's been a tough, emotional but very rewarding five years that Lisa and I have worked together. Five years that is coming to an end thanks to her warmth, understanding, insight and tenacity to help me through my troubles”.
“Couples therapy with Lisa couldn’t have been better. Through this 3-way therapeutic relationship we began a process of understanding fundamental elements of our early learned behavioural patterns. This is a challenging process which Lisa held space for sensitively and without judgement. We were able to hold parts of ourselves open to each other in a way which we had not previously done. The learning which followed brought fresh understanding and compassion to our everyday relationship, which has changed how we relate to each other and will impact us forever”.
"Thank you for showing me how to suffer my edges, firm up my shell and open my heart. You demonstrated this to me by going within yourself. Referring where feelings lying in the body”
