Hi there. I’m Jody (she/her), a fully qualified psychosexual therapist, and empowering people to overcome sexual problems and live sexually liberated and pleasurable lives is what I do. 

Are you experiencing a sexual difficulty? I will offer you an informed, sensitive, and validating space to explore your sexual problems at a pace that feels right for you.

My Experience

I work in the NHS as a psychosexual therapist and have worked at two different Relate centres in the UK; I gained my MSc in Contemporary Psychosexual Therapy after working in the mental health field for 10 years. I regularly attend training events, workshops, and webinars (in addition to doing lots of reading!) to ensure that my skills and knowledge base is kept relevant, diverse and current.

I am also a researcher within the field of sexuality – to take a look at my work, checkout my publications.

How I Work

I work in an integrative way, drawing upon different therapeutic tools and modalities to support you to explore and overcome sexual difficulties – everybody is different, so I attune my sessions around your unique needs. For example, it may be relevant to include elements of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Mindfulness and Systemic approaches in your sessions to name but a few modalities. I also work creatively, so there may be times where writing, drawing and crafting may be relevant and helpful for you. 

As a trauma informed psychosexual therapist, I am aware that many people have experienced significant life events that can have impact on both physical and psychological function and that this can impact on sexual relationships with both self and others. I am also conscious of how intersectionality can impact on sexuality and relationships and appreciate that no two lives are the same.
