Gennaro D'Apice

I am an accredited psychotherapist offering psychoanalytic and integrative psychotherapy. My core training is rooted in the Freudian tradition, and my work is informed by psychoanalytic thinkers including Melanie Klein, Wilfred Bion, Donald Meltzer, Donald Winnicott, and John Bowlby. I specialise in psychosexual and relationship psychotherapy.

I am a Registered Member of the College of Sexual and Relationship Therapists (COSRT), an Accredited Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), and a member of the British Psychological Society (BPS). 

I offer integrative supervision to trainee and qualified therapists, work in English, Italian, and Spanish, and am currently completing a PhD in Counselling Psychology focusing on the relational difficulties encountered within polyamorous and open relationships, particularly where neurodiversity is present.

I work with individuals, couples, and people in open, polyamorous, and non monogamous relationships, and I have extensive experience working with LGBTQ+ clients. I support people experiencing a wide range of sexual and relational difficulties, including erectile dysfunction, ejaculation difficulties, anxiety around sex and intimacy, loss of desire, orgasmic or anorgasmic difficulties, compulsive sexual behaviours, pornography related concerns, sexual trauma, addictions, codependency, affairs, and relationship breakdowns. I also work with vulval pain conditions, vaginismus, dyspareunia, sexual health issues, kink, BDSM, and questions around sexual orientation or identity.

I understand psychosexual difficulties as involving emotional, psychological, relational, and unconscious processes, not only physical symptoms. I offer a confidential and non judgmental space in which these experiences can be explored safely, supporting collaborative and meaningful change.
