Let's talk about sex

Nudge nudge, wink wink!   A bit of Rumpy Pumpy.  Practising Mattress Dancing.  Doing the Bed Boogie.  Getting stuck into some Nookie.  Going for a horizontal jog.  Visiting the Netherlands.  The birds and the bees. 

Call it what you will.  Everyone's at it, but rarely do we talk about it.  Therapy is a safe space in which to talk about experiences, real or imagined, free from judgment or taboo.  No holds barred.  Each and every one of us has a sexual identity.  All too often it is a part of ourselves that we keep hidden. 

The therapy room is one of the few environments in which we can explore our desires, our fantasies and our behaviours to see where they converge and identify any sources of discomfort or difficulty.  It is a precious space, in which we can come out of the closet to give a voice to the frequently unspoken, to integrate the all too commonly ignored or sidelined parts of ourselves that if left unacknowledged can cause us great confusion.
