WHAT IS PSYCHOSEXUAL THERAPY?
Psychosexual therapy, also known as sex therapy, is a talking therapy that addresses sexual issues. Much like a relationship therapist, a sex therapist can provide you with a safe, non-judgmental space to talk about issues that may be affecting your sex life, self-esteem, confidence, and relationships.
Our psychosexual therapists and counsellors work with both individuals and couples. They support clients who are seeking to understand more about their sexual identity, and interests, and work towards overcoming sexual difficulties, increasing their confidence and enhancing their sex lives and relationships.
We have a large team of therapists who warmly welcome all. We work affirmatively with diversity including gender, sexual and relationship diversity (GSRD), culture, religion and neurodiversity. We work with all relationship styles including monogamy, consensual non-monogamy and polyamory, as well as those engaged in BDSM and Kink.
All of our psychosexual therapists are also relationship therapists, and they work with a wide range of themes relating to sex and relationships. They have completed specialist training in order to be qualified to assist clients with the psychological and emotional causes of sexual difficulties. Our therapists help clients overcome difficulties such as erectile dysfunction, vaginismus and desire discrepancy. Common themes our therapists work with include:
- Gender and sexuality
- Sex education and confidence
- Desire and arousal issues
- Problems with sexual function including E.D., Rapid Ejaculation, Vaginismus and sex-related pain
- Kink, fetishes
- Compulsive sexual behaviours
- Consensual Non-Monogamy
- Issues relating to hormones, health, ageing and fertility
- Loss
- Trauma
We can offer low-cost therapy with our therapists in their final year of training.

Both face-to-face and online sex therapy sessions can be undertaken on an individual basis, or as a couple.

We offer low-cost online sex therapy sessions starting from £50 for a 50-minute individual therapy session with one of our therapists in their final year of training. The price of an appointment with a qualified therapist starts at £70 for a 50-minute individual session, and £80 for a couples appointment. In-person therapy starts at £90 for an individual appointment. For information on the cost of psychosexual therapy, you can view the individual therapist’s fees here.
BUILD
CONFIDENCE
Confidence grows with nurture, while psychosexual therapy provides the environment for that growth to take place. It enables self-exploration, understanding, gaining new tools and looking through different lenses to promote a positive relationship with self and the things that matter.
TALK IT
THROUGH
Bottled up thoughts, worries and distress impact our wellness. As we start to talk, we start the journey to make sense of what is happening. It helps to do that with someone who has the resources and training to support us on our way.
MOVE
FORWARD
The first step of moving forward is understanding what is holding you back. The next is getting to a place where you can let go of it and reach out to what lies ahead. Exploration and healing take you from one to the other.
HOW IT WORKS
Therapy takes place in a confidential and non-judgemental space with therapists who are qualified and passionate about helping people. It is an opportunity to work through difficulties, understand more about yourself and your situation, while finding ways to cope, heal, grow, and improve the way you feel over time.
Sometimes we don’t know why we are feeling as we do, nor how to take the steps to move forward to a happier place. We may not have thought about how counselling or psychotherapy could help. Talking to and sharing your thoughts and feelings with a therapist can help to make more sense of what is happening and together find a way to work through it.
We understand how hard it can be to find time in busy schedules so we have therapists who can offer appointments throughout the week – daytime, evenings and weekends.
