Way of Working
Living with sexually compulsive behaviours can feel both isolating and shameful.
Secrecy and lies can have a huge impact on relationships leaving you feeling cut off and isolated whilst shame thrives in secrecy leading to feelings of not being worthy and internalised blame.
Sessions will revolve around identifying the causes and influences of your sexual behaviour and looking at how these behaviours impact every aspect of your life and your relationships. Relevant assessment tools can be used to identify the severity of your behaviours.
Exploration will cover any circumstances that have had an impact on you including traumatic events, attachment and identifying your core beliefs as well as looking at the neuroscience behind addiction.
​
The inital work will look at which of the six phases of the cycle of addiction you are currently experiencing. The sessions will be structured around where you are within that cycle.

I aim to offer a shame free, non-judgemental and supportive environment in which to do this.
