Detailed Information

Most of us, if not all, experience personal losses and difficulties at stages of our lives. It is quite normal to struggle with such issues and to need some help to move forward.

I support individuals who are struggling with addictions and compulsive sexual behaviours. Men who are addicted to porn and might be using it as a coping mechanism against difficult feelings. Some client issues I work with include alcohol & drug addiction, porn addiction, sexual abuse, childhood trauma, grief and loss, shame, guilt, anxiety, depression, fear of rejection. Family scapegoating, relationship issues, break-ups, betrayal, open relationships, loneliness, bullying and neglect.

I am a qualified, experienced Integrative Counsellor, Sex/Porn Addiction Therapist and Meditation Teacher. I use these modalities in a pluralistic way.
Some of the difficulties I work with include shame, avoidant attachment styles, borderline personality disorder, conflict avoidant, fear of abandonment and fear of engulfment. ADHD, abusive relationships and domestic violence.

Experienced working with sexual abuse, co-dependency, people pleasing, grief & loss, bereavement, relationship break ups, conflict, family systems, betrayal, anxiety, depression, rage, difficulties setting boundaries, self-esteem and self-worth.

I have successfully worked with couples in the areas of betrayal, fear of conflict, lack of intimacy & sex, and trust issues like jealousy. Partners’ porn use, partner visiting sex workers. Swinging, revenge porn, webcams, open relationships, sugar babes and sugar daddies. Open relationships, poly relationships, Bi-sexual and gay relationships.

What makes me Different to other counsellors?

I had a lot of success with helping men overcome porn/sex addiction having lived experience in this field. I offer a compassionate understanding, empathy with presence of others’ feelings and emotions as I know what it’s like to struggle with addiction and mental health issues. My way of being is congruent, professional, ethical, non-judgemental, empathic and supportive. I hold space for clients to express themselves fully, to be seen, fully heard and understood.

I am very passionate about this work and love what I do. I provide safety for clients, helping them understand addiction, compulsive behaviour, triggers, attachment styles, trauma, negative emotions, feelings, family systems, childhood abuse, shame and neglect.

Help for individuals struggling with Sex/porn compulsion:

Maybe you are here because you have found the courage to seek help and are ready to make some changes.

Maybe you didn’t know you had a problem till you’ve been caught, or it’s no longer serving you.

Or maybe it is preventing you from getting into or maintaining a healthy relationship with others due to shame?

How can I support you?

I provide a compassionate space to start exploring how you got here and how you can change, how the brain craves dopamine and its function with addiction.

Helping you to understand what sex compulsion and porn addiction looks like and how sometimes we use it to avoid negative emotions and feelings. Sometimes, they look for a connection due to loneliness or isolation.

Helping to rebuild trust in your relationship and provide you with ways of communicating safely and honestly with boundaries.

I currently work with diverse clients from different age groups, backgrounds and cultures. I support couples dealing with betrayal, lack of intimacy, and lack of sex and want to resolve their relationship/marriage issues. Couples where partners porn use if effecting the relationship, communication issues, betrayal and trust issues.
