It often starts as a way to cope with stress or emotional pain. Over time, these habits can become a source of intense shame and isolation. You might feel trapped in a pattern that damages your relationships, career, or self-respect.
I provide a safe, non-judgemental space for clients across Deal, Dover, Canterbury, and Thanet. My approach focuses on the reality of your experience. Together, we look at the specific triggers and the underlying emotional needs driving the addiction. We work to replace these destructive cycles with healthier ways to manage your life.
Recovery is more than just stopping a behaviour. It involves understanding why the addiction took hold in the first place.
I use an integrative therapy model, combining elements of EMDR and ACT. These methods help you process past trauma and build psychological flexibility.
We focus on practical tools to manage urges in the moment. We also address the long-term goal of rebuilding your identity. You can choose the setting that feels most secure for you. I offer private face-to-face sessions in East Kent, Including Canterbury, Dover, Deal, Thanet, Herne Bay, Hythe and Folkestone or secure online therapy for those in Kent or outside the area.
The consequences of sex or porn addiction often extend far beyond the individual. Shame frequently acts as a barrier, preventing you from reaching out for the help you need. You might notice a growing disconnect from your partner or a loss of focus at work. These patterns are rarely about sex alone; they often serve as a way to numb difficult emotions.
I help you look at how these habits impact your daily life in Kent. We explore the emotional void that the addiction attempts to fill. By addressing these core issues, we work to rebuild your self-esteem and your relationships. Our goal is to move from a life of secrecy to one of clarity and purpose.
If your sexual behaviours feel out of control or cause significant distress, it is worth seeking help. This includes compulsive porn use or risky encounters that interfere with your daily life and responsibilities.
Yes. Confidentiality is the foundation of my practice. I provide a discreet environment where you can speak openly without fear of your details being shared or judged.
Every person is different. Some find clarity in a few weeks, while others require longer-term support to address deep-seated issues. We will review your progress regularly to ensure the pace suits you.
My primary focus is on individual therapy to address the root causes of the addiction. However, we can discuss how to communicate with your partner or seek specialist couples support if that becomes necessary.
I aim to be flexible to accommodate your work and personal life. Please get in touch to check my current availability for sessions in Deal or via video call.
Private sessions are £70 per hour. This applies to both face-to-face appointments in East Kent and online consultations. I offer private face-to-face sessions in East Kent, Including Canterbury, Dover, Deal, Thanet, Herne Bay, Hythe and Folkestone or secure online therapy for those in Kent or outside the area.
