Further training
Techniques that counsellors use with clients are drawn from theories or modalities. I am trained in and use a blend of the following:
- Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) – Bilateral Eye-Movement Therapy similar to EMDR. It is known as the fastest modality for resolving trauma
- Schema Therapy – A wonderful blueprint that helps you understand yourself & others
- Internal Family Systems (IFS) – helping people heal by accessing and healing their protective and wounded inner parts. Non-accredited training
- Gottman Therapy Level 1 & 2– used for relationships
- Emotion Focused Therapy – used for relationships
- Attachment Styles – used for relationships
Find your sexual side
Education about pleasure from sex and self has been lacking.
Gendered socialisation in particular, teaches many to please others and ignore their own needs and bodies. Exposure to painful, passive or unenjoyable sex is common. These expectations set up us for a lot of disappointment.
I became a sexologist to change that. Whilst some people are and will always be in touch with their sexuality, for some it’s about figuring out what turns you on (and what turns you off), and being open to exploration. I use sexology to guide you and promise to give you the most interesting homework you’ve ever been given.
