Richard Cruz

I am not available for in-person sessions. All consultations are online via VSee or Zoom.

I see couples and individuals who are struggling in their intimate sexual and relationship life. There can be sexual acting out (sexual compulsivity), infidelity, divorce, children, step-children, porn, sexual dysfunctions such as erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, loss of desire, fertility issues, trauma, abuse, anxiety, depression, anger and breakdown in communication resulting in loss of intimacy. As a mature therapist with 20 years experience underlying the above can  be depression and or anxiety, self-esteem issues, work problems, motivation in general. As an integrative practitioner my approach is underpinned by attachment theory, psychodynamic, schema, emotionally focused therapy and often coaching skills.  

I am very experienced in the field of psychosexual and relationship therapy as a COSRT senior Accredited practitioner, helping couples and individuals identify ways of becoming unstuck in their personal and relationship lives and connect sexually and relationally and drastically enhance their intimacy on their terms.

Professional and personal experience has allowed me to attune to what clients are seeking and help them feel more empowered.

All consultations are online via Zoom, FaceTime or WhatsApp Video.  

First sessions are preceded with a WhatsApp call or message outlining my conditions of service:

"Thank you for your enquiry. Just to clarify: we can set up a one off consultation for you to get a better feel for me and how I approach your concerns. If you feel I can help you and would like further sessions we can do so. I’m available for sessions day/evening Monday to Friday. Sometimes Saturday mornings. If you can let me know what works best for you day/time I’ll check my availability.

To book the individual fee it is £60.00 for 60 minutes for individuals and £70 for couples for 75 minutes required before the session and transferable via Revolut, BACS, IBAN or PayPal. Let me know which.

The sessions are online using software is either Zoom or VSee. I usually use the latter and simply require your email address to invite you to it.

Given my info to you, if you are still interested in some therapy, get back to me and we can put something in the diary.

Look forward to hearing from you.

Richard"

The first consultation if for one hour at the normal fee. I ask couples to explain in a few sentences, prior to the confirmed first session, how each sees the problem and what each would like to change.
