Welcome. I am Musonda, born in Zambia but have lived and worked in the UK for over thirty years. 

I am a qualified and experienced Psychosexual and Relationship Therapist registered with the College of Sexual and Relationship Therapists (COSRT).  I currently work with private clients and at Relate - Nottingham. 

I work with individuals and couples to support them reach a place of better understanding of themselves, their relationships as well as improved sexual relationships and wellbeing. My approach to psychosexual work is client centred and draws from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Sensate Focus and Mindfulness.

PSYCHOTHERAPY:

I am also a BACP registered Therapist offering face to face and online therapy.

I primarily work in a relational/integrative way drawing on interventions underpinned by psychodynamic and Humanistic theories of therapy. I offer individual counselling to adults only. Within my work with clients, I am curious about early childhood experiences and significant life events; and how these may have come to shape thoughts, beliefs, and behaviour. I believe in going beneath the surface to understand your experiences and give your story a voice. I offer a confidential, non-judgemental space in which you can feel safe to be seen, listened to, heard, and validated. I work in a client-centred way making this a space for you that starts with you, and that’s where we will work from.

During the first session, I will carry out an assessment – to get to know you and understand your story. Therefore, we will be talking through what brings you to therapy. This is also an opportunity for you to experience how I work and to see whether I am the right therapist for your therapeutic journey.
