Helen Howat

Trained as a Relate couple counsellor and sex therapist I have been helping couples and individuals with their relationships for many years.

I can offer you an opportunity to think things through, to talk about them and to find a way forward. I can support you to explore what you are doing, thinking and feeling and perhaps look at how your past is affecting you now.

If sex therapy feels appropriate then I can provide a structured treatment programme paced just right for you with activities to be done at home and then discussed with me in the counselling session.

I offer support to both couples and individuals. I specialise in couple counselling and sex therapy. I also see individuals for more general issues such as anxiety and depression.

Sexual difficulties that can be helped include: erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, loss of desire, pain on intercourse, inability to orgasm or achieve penetration.

The first session allows us to look at what the issues are and see how we might work together.  You will get an idea of what it would be like to have ongoing therapy with me and whether I am the right person for you. It gives me a chance to see what I might be able to offer you with what you are presenting with.
