Heidi is an experienced Sexologist and Relationship Therapist who believes everyone is entitled to a fulfilling sex life and relationship no matter an individual’s background, gender or sexual preference. With over 15 years’ experience in sexual health and counselling, she specialises in supporting couples and individuals who are dissatisfied with their sexual functioning such as low libido, loss of desire/interest in sex, anorgasmia (inability to orgasm), dyspareunia (painful intercourse), vaginismus, sexual identity, sexual orientation, self esteem, erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation with a focus on pleasure, connection and education in sexuality.
Heidi works with the different dynamics between the people in the relationship to assist with better communication and connection while understanding there is no-one-size-fits-all when is comes to therapy. She works with couples in areas of intimacy and building trust after an affair, conception support, sex in long term relationships, cultural and religious factors that may be affecting the relationship, improving communication, self esteem, new relationships, conflict resolution and moderate depression and anxiety.
She understands the sensitivity and difficulty people experience when dealing with relationship and sexual issues. She prides herself on providing a safe, confidential and respectful environment to assist people to address these issues. She works with a solution focused approach combined with evidence based strategies such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to assist clients in managing thoughts, behavioural patterns and work towards outcomes that best suit the individual/couples situation and needs. Her approach in therapy helps clients achieve awareness in their sexual health, better communication in their relationships and re-learn sexual techniques and behaviours.
