Mr Steve Lockyer

Sex Therapist

A COSRT accredited & BACP registered therapist working with individuals and couples in all issues, with a specialism in sexual difficulties.

About Me

This therapist supports individuals and couples seeking understanding and resolution for a wide range of concerns. They create a safe space to gently explore the sensitive nature of sexual difficulties, helping clients navigate complex emotions. Clients find a compassionate and professional guide who helps them build healthier connections. Whether facing long-standing issues or new challenges, clients can find clarity and a way forward.

Approach

Talks begin with curiosity about what matters to you and quickly move into practical, paced work that honours your timing. I offer in-person sessions in West Sussex and online in English, keeping appointments focused and accessible. We use short experiments, communication exercises and reflective tasks between meetings to gently unpick sexual and relationship patterns, working collaboratively at a calm tempo. People facing relationship shifts, grief or changes in desire often find this steady, hands-on way of working helpful.
