Therapy for Erectile Dysfunction in London

 

Erection difficulties are far more common than most men realise, yet they can feel isolating and hard to talk about. When there is no clear physical cause, or when worry has taken over, the mind often plays a big part. Therapy offers a confidential space to understand what is happening and to rebuild confidence.

 

I am a BACP-accredited psychotherapist working in central London and online. I see straight, gay and queer men of all ages for erectile dysfunction and related concerns.

 

When the cause is psychological

Erectile dysfunction can be linked to:

• Sexual performance anxiety and fear of "failing"

• Stress, burnout or pressure at work

• Low mood, depression or low self-esteem

• Relationship tension, conflict or loss of closeness

• Shame or guilt around sex or sexuality

• Heavy porn use affecting arousal with a partner

• Past difficult experiences that still affect you

 

How counselling can help

We begin by understanding your experience and what is going on for you. From there we explore what may be contributing, and work on easing the pressure that keeps the problem going.

 

My approach is integrative and tailored to you. It may involve understanding the anxiety cycle, changing unhelpful expectations about sex, improving communication with a partner, and working through deeper feelings such as shame.

 

You may also find my pages on sexual performance anxiety and compulsive porn use useful.
