About me and my therapy practice

I'm a fully qualified Psychotherapist and founder of Perch Therapy, specialising in sex and relationships. I'm also a sexologist in training who is kink, GSRD and sex worker friendly, working with individuals and relationships who are navigating challenges around sexual problems including sexual shame, intimacy, connection, communication, and sexual wellbeing.

My approach is collaborative, and grounded in the belief that you can form a fulfilling relationship with yourself and others. Whether you're facing recurring conflict, sexual difficulties from desire discrepancy to dysfunction, or a sense of disconnection, I offer a space where we can explore what鈥檚 really going on beneath the surface and offer exercises to maintain change.

Practice description

I have a background in bodywork, which informs how I understand emotional experience as something that lives not just in the mind, but in the body - hence why I integrate creative and experiential approaches into my work, helping you access insight and change in ways that go beyond traditional talk therapy.

If you are struggling with low self-worth, if you are rebuilding yourself, if you are recovering from shame and want self-acceptance or if you want to see how I can help you before committing to a therapy session, I have a book for you, entitled, "Good Magic: Become Somebody You鈥檙e Proud Of." Which is available on Amazon and offers practical steps to create lives and relationships that feel aligned and fulfilling.

Here is some additional information on what I can help with:

Relationships experiencing conflict, betrayal /infidelity, distance, or breakdown in communication.

Individuals wanting to understand relationship patterns, sexuality or build healthier connections.

Sexual concerns, including desire discrepancy, performance anxiety, penetration problems, erection problems, vaginismus and intimacy blocks.

Life transitions, identity exploration, and self-esteem challenges, depression.

My first session

My style is thoughtful, direct, and compassionate. I don鈥檛 believe in pathologizing you or reducing people to a label. We will give your unique story the respect it deserves and find ways forward that work for you.

Not Sure What to Expect?

Therapy with me is a space for curiosity, openness, acceptance and growth. I aim to balance depth with practicality, helping you understand your patterns and to shift them. At times we may work creatively or somatically, especially where words alone don鈥檛 quite capture the experience. As we form out therapeutic relationship I may gently challenge ideas, but this is always from a place of positive regard and I welcome your challenges too - that's the communication I believe in.

If you鈥檙e looking for a therapist who can hold complexity, talk openly about sex and relationships, and support you in becoming someone you feel proud to be I want to hear from you.
