Irene Searle

Psychosexual therapy spaces available now for individuals and couples.

A psychosexual therapist- in practice with experience in working with couples, relationships and situation-ships trying to navigate the complex world of intimacy. If you are finding your intimate life challenging right now, there is a good chance that I can help you. 

Limited concessionary spaces are available.

During the assessment phase I will work with you to gain a clear understanding of how you view the problem and will suggest some ways in order to address the issue. It may entail some homework exercises and/or some resources to complete at home. 

No touching is carried out in the session. We will discuss together about what is happening now and come up with a plan to help you flourish and gain more confidence in this important part of your life.  

Sessions are carried out every week at the same time and place. We will review the sessions together to ensure you feel that they are meeting your needs.

The first two sessions are the assessment phase and can last for up to 60-90 minutes. I will use a psycho-bio-social approach to gain some insight into how to address the problem.

Some availability for new clients, please enquire for timings.

My approach and training is psychodynamic which is insight driven. We look to explore your past and how this has shaped your life in the present. It can help with looking at deeper rooted issues which have remained hidden or repressed. 

The aim is to support you in recognising and understanding these  true feelings in order to help resolve them. It can be challenging but useful as it helps to gain a truer insight into your internal life. 

Some concessionary spaces are now being offered, enquire for more information. 

What can I offer you? - I will provide you with an opportunity to look at your problems in a different way and help you find answers without judgement.  I will offer you a consistent, confidential and comfortable space in which you will be encouraged to be your true self. 

There is no perfect way to do therapy. Come as you are and let us discover the real you. Call me on 07949176337 or email at Irene.searle@btinternet.com and we can discuss your needs over the phone.

(Some concessions are available for those on a low income, please enquire). 

If you inform me a week in advance you have to miss a session, there is no charge. Cancellations made with less than three days notice are charged at 50%. Less than 24 hours, the full fee is charged. 

The initial enquiry by phone or email will cover practical considerations like availability, fees, how many sessions, parking etc and we then decide on a mutually convenient time. 

The initial consultation is a reduced fee session and we explore what is bringing you into therapy at this point in your life. You can  share what it is you are struggling with or what is on your mind. We will then discuss whether we can do some meaningful work together. I suggest you take a few days to think about how the session has gone and will check in with you to find out if you would like to continue with therapy.
