Psychosexual therapy

Sexual problems?  You are not alone. 

We all struggle with our sex lives at one time or another, things like childbirth, the menopause, loss of a job, illness or surgery can all bring change and loss of confidence.

Getting that confidence back and getting sexual problems treated usually requires help and support from someone with expertise.

We have many years of experience and offer a range of treatments. Sometimes more than one treatment type is needed to get you back on track, and you can just see us for an assessment first before you make up your mind whether you want to continue.

Our therapists

All our therapists are accredited members of either the Institute of Psychosexual Medicine (IPM) or College of Sexual and Relationship Therapists (COSRT). Placements are offered in our clinics to therapists in training who will work under the supervision of an accredited therapist. Sometimes there can be a choice of seeing a male or female therapist.

Confidentiality

Every possible care will be taken to keep your information confidential. We will check things out with you at all times, before making decisions about your treatment or sharing any information about you.
