Counselling Bio

Breaking Free from Compulsive Sexual Behaviours and Reclaiming Your Life. Compulsive sexual behaviours can leave you feeling trapped in a cycle of guilt, shame, secrecy, and loss of control. What may have begun as a way of coping with stress, loneliness, anxiety, boredom, or emotional pain can gradually develop into behaviours that damage your relationships, self-esteem, mental health, and overall wellbeing. You do not have to face this journey alone. I offer a confidential, compassionate, and non-judgemental counselling service where you can safely explore the underlying causes of compulsive sexual behaviours, including pornography addiction, problematic online sexual activity, infidelity, and relationship difficulties. Together, we will identify the emotional patterns that drive these behaviours, develop healthier coping strategies, and help you build a more authentic, balanced, and fulfilling life. Our work may include exploring:

Childhood trauma and emotional neglect
Shame and self-criticism
Conflict avoidance
People-pleasing patterns
Healthy boundary-setting
Emotional regulation
Building resilience and self-worth

Recovery is about far more than stopping a behaviour. It is about healing the emotional wounds beneath the addiction, reconnecting with your values, and learning healthier ways of relating to yourself and others. Whether you are taking your first steps towards recovery or have experienced repeated setbacks, meaningful and lasting change is possible. With the right support, you can regain control, rebuild trust, and create a life that is no longer defined by addiction. Lived Experience Combined with Professional Expertise My work is shaped by both professional training and personal experience. Having lived with pornography and compulsive sexual addiction for more than 30 years, I understand the fear, shame, secrecy, and isolation that so often accompany these struggles. I have now been in recovery for over five years and know firsthand that lasting change is possible. Alongside my own recovery journey, I am a qualified integrative counsellor, sex addiction therapist, and meditation teacher. Combining lived experience with professional knowledge enables me to offer compassionate, practical, and informed support to those facing similar challenges. Unchecked addiction often contributes to anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and a diminished sense of self-worth. Over time, it can affect the people and relationships that matter most, including partners, children, family, friendships, and careers. Helping others find freedom from addiction is more than my profession—it’s a deeply personal commitment because I have walked this path myself. Understanding the Root Cause Compulsive sexual behaviour is rarely the core problem. More often, it is an attempt to cope with deeper emotional pain or unmet psychological needs. Many clients discover that their behaviours are linked to experiences such as:

Childhood trauma
Emotional neglect
Narcissistic or emotionally unavailable parenting
Toxic relationships
Bullying
Chronic stress
Loneliness
Anxiety or depression
Low self-worth
Boredom or a lack of purpose and meaning

By understanding and healing these underlying issues, genuine recovery becomes possible. My Therapeutic Approach My approach is compassionate, honest, dynamic, and person-centred. I have worked with hundreds of men, both online and face-to-face, supporting them in overcoming compulsive sexual behaviours involving pornography, chat services, webcams, escorts, and other problematic sexual behaviours. Therapy is tailored to your individual needs and may include:

Inner Child Healing
Breathwork and mindfulness
Meditation practices
Challenging unhelpful thoughts and beliefs
Building healthy self-esteem and self-worth
Healthy boundary-setting
Breaking people-pleasing patterns
Shame reduction and emotional regulation
Psychoeducation about the impact of pornography on the brain, emotions, and relationships
Guidance around developing a healthier relationship with sexuality, including healthy masturbation where appropriate

Together, we will work towards breaking the patterns that keep you feeling stuck, strengthening your emotional resilience, improving your relationships, and creating lasting, meaningful change. Recovery Is Possible Freedom from compulsive sexual behaviours is achievable. With honesty, commitment, and the right therapeutic support, you can leave destructive patterns behind, rediscover your sense of self, and build a life based on integrity, connection, and purpose. The first step is often the hardest—but it can also be the beginning of a completely new chapter. “Sobriety is not a weakness. It’s one of the bravest decisions you’ll ever make.”

Professionalism, compassionate understanding. A non-judgemental approach.

Couples Counselling

Healing After Betrayal. Rebuilding Trust. Moving Forward Together.

When trust has been broken, it can feel as though your entire relationship has been turned upside down. Whether the betrayal involves pornography, compulsive sexual behaviours, infidelity, or visiting sex workers, the emotional impact can be devastating for both partners.

You may feel overwhelmed, disconnected, angry, heartbroken, or uncertain whether your relationship can survive.

You don’t have to face this alone.

I specialise in supporting couples affected by betrayal trauma and compulsive sexual behaviours. My role is to provide a safe, confidential, and non-judgemental space where both partners feel heard, understood, and supported as we work together towards healing, rebuilding trust, and creating a stronger relationship.

Areas I Can Help With

I have extensive experience supporting couples experiencing:

Betrayal trauma
Compulsive sexual behaviours (often referred to as sex addiction)
Pornography addiction
Infidelity and secret sexual behaviours
Attachment difficulties
Co-dependency
Domestic abuse
Narcissistic and borderline relationship dynamics
Trauma bonds
Poor or unhealthy boundaries
Addiction and recovery
Family dysfunction, including narcissistic parenting, scapegoating, and parentification

A Personalised Approach to Couples Therapy

Every relationship is unique.

My pluralistic approach means therapy is tailored to your individual circumstances rather than following a one-size-fits-all model. I integrate evidence-based therapeutic approaches with practical, solution-focused strategies to help you:

Understand what has happened
Navigate difficult conversations safely
Improve communication
Rebuild emotional safety and trust
Develop healthier relationship patterns
Create meaningful and lasting change

Whether you’re hoping to repair your relationship or simply gain greater clarity about what has happened, therapy offers a space to explore your experiences with honesty, compassion, and professional guidance.

Understanding Betrayal Trauma

For the partner who has experienced betrayal, the emotional impact can be profound.

Many people find themselves comparing their appearance or worth to those seen in pornography or to sex workers, questioning why they were “not enough.”

One of the greatest misconceptions about compulsive sexual behaviour is that it reflects the attractiveness or value of a partner.

It reality it rarely does.

Having worked with hundreds of men struggling with compulsive sexual behaviours, I have seen that addiction is far more often rooted in unresolved trauma, emotional pain, shame, loneliness, and unhealthy coping strategies than dissatisfaction within a relationship.

Many describe reaching the height of their addiction only to experience emotional numbness, isolation, depression, hopelessness, and deep shame.

Understanding this distinction is often an important step in both individual healing and relationship recovery.

The Impact of Pornography on Relationships

The widespread accessibility of online pornography has profoundly affected many relationships.

It can contribute to:

Secrecy
Emotional distance
Loss of intimacy
Broken trust
Infidelity
Feelings of rejection
Disconnection and loneliness

While these experiences can feel overwhelming, they do not have to define the future of your relationship.

Recovery and Reconnection Are Possible

Healing after betrayal takes courage, honesty, accountability, and commitment from both partners.

I have supported many couples in rebuilding trust, restoring emotional intimacy, and developing healthier, more fulfilling relationships after betrayal.

Although the journey is rarely easy, lasting recovery is possible when both partners are willing to engage in the therapeutic process.

Together, we will work to understand what happened, process the pain, rebuild trust, and create a stronger foundation for the future.

You do not have to navigate this journey alone.

Couples counselling is available as:

60-minute sessions
