The majority of my clients are LGBTQ+ but I work with straight people too. I help clients who are interested in opening up their relationship, or who have experienced problems or want support with consensual non-monogamy. I see a lot of people who are questioning their sexuality or gender and have worked with many trans clients at all stages of their journey. I also work with kinky people and those who are interested in learning more about their kinks. I have plenty of experience working with D/s relationships, Total Power Exchange (TPE), 24/7, BDSM, furries, breeding kinks, cross-dressing, pet play, age play, play parties, and all sorts of other kinks and fetishes.

As a qualified Clinical Sexologist I see clients with issues around sex, including erection problems, premature/early ejaculation, delayed ejaculation, low desire, mismatched sexual desire, pain and penetration problems, compulsive sexual behaviour (sometimes called "sex addiction" or "porn addiction"), and orgasm problems. I also deal with regular everyday issues that most therapists work with, such as depression, anxiety, and bereavement, and am trauma-informed, with EMDR as my preferred treatment approach.

Experience and approach:

I have 11 years of practicing as a counsellor having started in 2013. My private practice has been running since the start of 2015. I trained humanistically and integratively and still use these on a day to day basis. I work from a person-centred base as I believe that the relationship is central to helping people to change. I'm somewhere between integrative and pluralistic - I believe that each person is an individual and therefore tailor my approach to each person, couple, and polycule. My sexology training has given me more prescriptive skills which I now integrate into my approach.
