Shay Rees-Davies

Sexologist

I am dedicated to supporting individuals & couples through the complexities of relationships and sexuality, and in navigating the profound impact of trauma. Whether you're seeking to heal, discover, or express your authentic self, I provide a humanistic approach that focuses on embracing your personal truth.

About Me

I am a sexologist and counsellor based in Scottburgh South, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. I treat relationship issues, abuse, anger, cross-cultural conflicts and divorce. I provide psycho-legal support, trauma counseling and sex therapy.

Approach

My work centres on helping people reconnect to their values and bodies after shock or conflict, shaping therapy around what matters most to you. From my base in Scottburgh, KwaZulu‑Natal and online in English, sessions are paced to your rhythm and steadily held. We move between grounding practices, practical skill‑building and clear safety planning, with space for advocacy-focused discussion or preparation for legal processes when relevant. Those navigating cultural tension, rupture or questions about sexuality often find this steady, practical companionship helpful.
