I currently have a couple of afternoon and evening appointments available. 

My fees are £65 for individual sessions and £75 for couples.

Hello, I’m Renata. I’m a qualified and experienced counsellor and psychosexual therapist, certified in couples therapy and trauma. I have a background supporting clients who have experienced sexual abuse, and I now support clients with sex, intimacy, and relationship issues. I work with individuals and couples to explore challenges, understand patterns, and develop strategies for healthier, more fulfilling connections.

I support individuals and couples through a range of sexual challenges and interests, aiming at enhancing pleasure, improving sex life and relationships. The main issues I can help with are relationship challenges, difficulties related to performance anxiety, painful sex, vaginismus, low sexual desire, erectile or ejaculation difficulties, gender and sexual identity, alternative sexual preferences, compulsive sexual behaviours, and more.

In our work together, we’ll explore what’s behind the difficulties you’re facing. Feelings of shame, guilt and fear can be common. I offer empathetic, open-minded, and non-judgmental support. I will guide you towards noticing your feelings and what creates them, understanding how the past may be affecting you today and learning practical strategies to move forward. We will focus on psychosexual therapy to enhance your sex and intimate life, whether this means recognising your own needs and boundaries, working on communication with your partner, or reconnecting with your body's sensations. My therapy approach is based on sexology studies, evidence-based talking therapy & somatic principles of bringing awareness to the body. I draw on elements of ISTDP, an approach that helps you connect with emotions. The goal is to work towards fulfilling relationships and a more satisfying life.

In our first session, we’ll focus on getting to know each other. You’ll have space to talk about what’s bringing you to therapy, whether that’s a specific issue, a general sense that something doesn't feel right, or a desire for support or growth. I’ll ask some gentle questions to help you reflect and to get a clearer sense of what you might need from therapy. Based on what you share, I’ll describe how I think our work together could support you. After that, you’ll have some time to consider whether this therapeutic approach and working with me feels like the right fit for you at this time.
