Some people find it very difficult to discuss their sexual problems, even though many of us experience sexual issues at some point in our lives. Psychosexual therapy helps you to better understand yourself sexually. In exploring the problem, psychosexual therapy treats the causes as well as the symptoms.

My focus is on the psychological aspects of my clients’ issues. There is no physical examination or touching of clients in sex therapy. Psychosexual therapy requires an initial consultation followed by a detailed history taking which is done over a double or two consultations which in turn leads to feedback and a planned programme for the specific issue within the particular personal circumstances of the client.

Psychosexual issues include:

• Erectile difficulties
• Ejaculation problem such as delayed or rapid ejaculation
• Orgasm difficulties for men and women
• Painful intercourse (dyspareunia)
• Vaginismus
• Sexual orientation
• Sex after fertility treatment
• Male and female body image

I am not qualified to treat paedophilia. I also do not work with long-standing lack of sexual desire issues.
