I am an accredited Sexual and Relationship Therapist.  I specialise in working compulsive sexual and/or relationship behaviours (e.g. porn, sex, fantasy, romance, and love addiction), specific sexual practices, sexual function, and maladaptive daydreaming.  My background is in behavioural neuroscience, and sexuality education.  I am dedicated to helping you explore what is okay for you and develop your version of a happy, healthy sense of satisfying relationships and sexual experience.  I am an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and the College of Sexual and Relationship Therapists (COSRT), and EMDR UK and EMDR Europe.

About
I am a COSRT Accredited, ATSAC Qualified, UKCP, BACP and RELATE Registered Psychotherapist.  I have been facilitating relationships between people of various cultures in a professional environment since the early 1990’s. Relationships and sex are intriguing, hence my fascination with how these can be helped and enhanced. Sometimes if we feel disconnected, anxious or unhappy we may look for a swift  “pick-me up” which can quickly escalate out of control with unpleasant consequences on ourselves and our relationships with others. This may come in the form of compulsions around sex. Most of us have an inherent need to connect and relate, be accepted and valued emotionally, physically or otherwise, something essential to our survival no matter what our background. Sexual behaviours which spin out of control can have a detrimental effect on ourselves and how we connect with others.

How I can help
Having studied Relationship Therapy to a Master’s degree level with additional postgraduates in Psychosexual Therapy, Sex Addiction/Compulsivity Therapy and EMDR (Europe) Trauma Therapy, I have been part of one of the authorities in Relationship and Sex Therapy -RELATE. I have gathered valuable knowledge and experience in enabling couple and sexual relationships as well as guiding and helping to overcome  sexually compulsive behaviours (e.g. compulsive use of pornography, paid sex, fetishism etc) when these do not serve well. Where necessary I can help lessen the emotional load of trauma which often underlies current emotional difficulties.

I work in a deeply compassionate way, facilitating change through collaborative dialogue, exercises, explaining and educating, yielding a positive feedback loop where there is no judgement or stigma within a safe and contained environment. I can help both those entwined in out-of-control sexual behaviours as well as offer support, practical advice and tools to their partners. In order to provide the best of services, I strongly believe in keeping up to date with the latest research and newly emerging therapies, which I accomplish through attending over 100 hours of courses and seminars for continuous professional development per year.

You are welcome to a 30-minute free consultation so you can decide for yourself whether the services I offer resonate with your needs and how these may correlate to the issues you want to address. My intention is to provide you with information on the basis of which you may make your own informed decisions on what steps you wish to follow next.

As a leading expert on sex and porn addiction, I work with individuals struggling with compulsive sexual behaviours. I usually offer treatment programmes at my clinic in Harley Street, Central London, as well as providing online therapy. Please note that at the present time I am only working online.

Sex is a natural, normal and enjoyable part of our lives, but sometimes it can become something that feels out of control, damaging and destructive. Sometimes people find themselves addicted to porn, watching it for hours every day, and as a result their work and their relationships suffer. Others become addicted to having sex with strangers or with escorts. They find themselves spending huge amounts of money, putting themselves and their partners at risk of sexually transmitted diseases and damaging their relationships. When sex feels like it has become out of control, then it is time to seek help.

I provide an innovative treatment programme for sex addicts, based upon a range of therapeutic approaches which have been proven to work. Sex addiction is usually a maladjusted way of managing difficult emotions, and I help clients to understand why they are using sex in a compulsive manner, so that they can get to the bottom of their addiction. I work with them on a programme designed to stop harmful sexual behaviour and to redevelop a healthy relationship with sex.

As an experienced psychosexual and relationship therapist, I have worked with hundreds of clients struggling with sexual addiction and sexual dysfunction. My training includes an MA in Counselling and Psychotherapy and a Postgraduate Diploma in Psychosexual and Relationship Therapy. I am a BACP Registered member and am also a supervisor.

I am an experienced counsellor working with both individuals and couples and have  a special interest in working with those who are struggling with compulsive sexual behaviours.   Additionally I offer counselling to partners affected by such compulsive behaviours to help them understand and manage difficult feelings and experiences and to assist in rebuilding the relationship and intimacy once recovery has started.

I offer sessions on Skype, Zoom and telephone as well as face to face.

My qualifications include an ISAT Diploma in Sex Addiction Counselling, Diploma in Person Centred Counselling. Post graduate Diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Certificate in Couples Counselling and IAPT Certificate/licence in counselling for Depression.  I am am accredited member of BACP, a qualified member of ATSAC and a Professional Associate Member of COSRT.

I am an ATSAC qualified therapist,  based just outside the town of Windsor in Berkshire.  I am able to provide one-to-one therapy, either face-to-face or online, working with people experiencing sex addiction.  I can also offer individual counselling for anyone affected by another person’s addiction.

Previously I have been a primary sex therapist at a private 12-Step residential rehabilitation clinic, located in Surrey.  I have also worked in Hong Kong with cross-addicted stimulant users/sex addicts and have a vast experience of working with sex addicts presenting with a wide range of compulsive behaviours.  Through years of both personal and professional experience of addiction/cross-addiction, I have gained the skills and knowledge to help both the person experiencing addiction and the family and friends affected by it.

My private practice is located in a quiet residential street, with free on-street parking.

I work with individuals and couples in my established private practice in Harpenden, Hertfordshire. I work with clients with pornography and other sex addictions and with partners impacted by these issues.  I also work with sex offenders. In addition to addiction/offending  I work with personal issues such as anxiety and depression; couple issues such as repetitive rows or the discovery of an affair; and sexual issues such as loss of desire or physical problems. I am a qualified sex therapist.

I am an accredited BACP member; a senior  accredited COSRT member; a member of ATSAC and a registered therapist with StopSo. I am also an accredited supervisor with COSRT.

I have trained as a psychosexual and relationship therapist through Relate, and with Dr Birchard in the area of compulsive and addictive sexual behaviours.

Additionally I have a qualification in assessment and treatment for people with inappropriate sexual behaviours and have been writing reports for the criminal justice system and Social Services for fifteen years.

My approach is CBT orientated (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) and clients are encouraged to complete exercises at home  as a means to moving forward more swiftly.

My background is as a specialist relationship and couples counsellor with over twenty five years’ experience.

I now also work with individuals and/or their partners where pornography, online sexual encounters, multiple sexual liaisons or use of sex workers is negatively affecting their lives and relationships. I have a level 5 Diploma in Sex Addiction Counselling through the Institute for Sex Addiction Training (ISAT) and awarded by the Counselling and Psychotherapy Central Awarding Body (CPCAB).

Couples counselling has been described as ‘like piloting a helicopter in a hurricane’. Hence the necessity for an expert therapist experienced in the skills required. I also provide relationship counselling both privately and for Relate, with whom I qualified in 1996.

Sexual issues, affairs and betrayal, separation and divorce, communication patterns, life stage changes, ‘the neglected relationship’, pornography, online chat  and sex addiction, grief and loss and ‘creating something better’ are some of the many relationship issues I encounter. Look at my website ‘Case Scenarios’ tab for examples. http://www.migbennettrelationshipcounselling.co.uk/case-scenarios/

I am based in Crowborough, TN6, and generally work with clients from East Sussex and West Kent. I also am able to work using Skype or similar.

I am a fully accredited psychotherapist who has been practising for over 20 years. I am highly qualified and have extensive experience in relationship counselling specialising in COSRT-approved psychosexual therapy, and ATSAC-accredited sex addiction therapy for both individuals and couples. I use Relate principles within my marriage guidance approach and have trained under Paula Hall on Sex Addiction programmes to help my clients build stronger relationships with a restored foundation of intimacy and trust.

My counselling service emphasises an integrative therapeutic approach recognising the importance of overcoming the detrimental physical, social and emotional components often associated with either a relationship or an individual’s breakdown. In my sphere of work, this is often due to a lack of sexual desire, loss or lack of intimacy, sexual dysfunction, a communication breakdown, sexual abuse or trauma and increasingly a distressing sex addiction.

I guarantee a safe, confidential, and welcoming environment where can build a brighter happier and more fulfilling future together.

​Clients may choose in-person counselling services at my Wisborough Green practice near Billingshurst, West Sussex, or nationwide virtual therapy services via Skype, FaceTime, or telephone.
