Why work with me
“I support individuals with a wide range of sexual function concerns and relationship difficulties. Many people feel isolated when it comes to sex, especially if they’ve struggled to be heard or to speak openly. I respect the courage it takes to reach out and begin this process. Alongside individuals, I also work with couples and intimate partners. Relationships are rarely straightforward, and most of us are never taught how to navigate them. I offer a supportive space to reconnect, improve communication, and explore new ways forward together.
I am a pluralistic Psychosexual and Relationship Therapist, which means I draw on a range of approaches to suit each client, because no single method works for everyone. Together, we can build a therapeutic alliance tailored to your unique needs.
Before training as a therapist, I worked as an Advanced Nurse Practitioner in general practice and sexual health. I bring this experience and knowledge of both physical and emotional health into my work as a Therapist. I also hold an Advanced Menopause Certification, with a particular interest in how menopause can affect sexuality and relationships. My training allows me to bring a broader perspective than the medical model alone, using a bio-psycho-social approach to understand the complex interplay between biology, psychology, and social context.
My approach is warm, compassionate and grounding to promote positive change and sexual wellbeing”
– Naomi Rees


An Inclusive Approach to Therapy
I provide a warm and inclusive space to all gender identities, orientations, sexualities and relationship structures. I work to recognise and honour everyone’s unique identity. I am a kink aware and affirmative therapist. I offer a sex positive and validating space to all my clients free from judgement. I offer a culturally aware and sensitive approach to support my client’s.
