Pride events are important for social justice, wellbeing of queer people and having a sense of belonging. If you want to know more, you can read my blog in Psychology Today: www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/talk... #pride #lgbtq #queer #lovewins

🌈🌈 Pride Month 🌈🌈 My new blog on Psychology Today: the benefits of attending Pride events for queer people. Enjoy! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🌈💖 www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/talk...

Happy Summer Solstice! ☀️❤️☀️❤️☀️

Kinky Boots with Johannes Radebe at the London Coliseum was AMAZING! 👠👠👠👠❤️🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

This year alone, I have delivered 17 talks in-person and on Zoom for international audiences in the UK, Europe, USA, Canada and Australia, including speaking at 6 international top-level conferences.

It was an honour to be invited to speak at the British Society of Sexual Medicine (BSSM) and co-present with the amazing Dr Angela Wright on porn-related distress.

Happy Pride Month! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🩵🩷🖤🤎💝 Despite this fun picture, Pride Month is not all about parties. 🌈 It is about the visibility of all queer people represented by our Pride flag because we are still marginalised.

One of the best parts of an in-person conference beyond the interesting lectures is quality time with each other outside of the conference venue, getting together as professionals and humans.

It was fantastic to participate in the 18th Congress of the European Federation of Sexology in Lisbon. It was an honour to present on “the clinical implications of homonormativity”

I’m chuffed to see that Jeanine Connor wrote a lovely review of my book “Sexual Diversity” in the June edition of Therapy Today! ❤️🌈 Thank you Jeanine! ☀️

Alix Fox has once again written a fantastic piece for Therapy Today, this time on family estrangement for LGBTQ+ clients. It is a very important issue because many LGBTQ+ people still face hate from their own family due to homophobia and transphobia. It is an honour to be quoted for this piece ❤️🌈

I wish everyone a gorgeous sunny bank holiday weekend! ☀️ This weekend, I’m going to enjoy slowing down, and I’m going to challenge myself not to be in front of screens for a while, and instead, staying in the moments of just living. What are your plans for this weekend? ☀️

It was a joy to deliver a webinar on queer-affirmative practice for Sex Coach U. And it is truly a joy to invite colleagues to re-think our dominant societal constructs related to gender, sexuality, erotic and relationships 🌈💖

And, of course, there was a book launch party, wearing something bling! ❤️🧡💛💙💚💜🩷🩵💖

It was wonderful to celebrate the launch of The Routledge International Handbook of Sexual Compulsivity and Clinical Sexology with colleagues. We had a full day of rich and in-depth conversations on sexual compulsivity.

It was a pleasure to teach for MSTI again! It’s always a joy to connect with colleagues in the USA. This time I spoke about integrating GSRD therapy 🌈 modernsextherapyinstitutes.com/product/inte...

My first book is 5 years old already! And it is still being read internationally. I’m still receiving very good feedback from colleagues and the public!

Mastu☀️tion can be help in getting to know your body and how it responds to touch. It can be helpful in exploring your erotic mind, and how it connects with your body. And it can help with your s🎉x life with your partner(s). Enjoy! ☀️

Mastur☀️tion can improve sleep. So if you want a really good sleep tonight, or if you have the occasional insomnia, you know what to do! 😉 If you want to know more: read my article: www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/talk...

There are quite of few benefits to mastu☀️tion. It can be a very good stress relief and can help with feeling better if you’re feeling anxious or low. It is a great method for wellness when it is well integrated in your life.

Come and join us on Friday 15th May for the live webinar with MSTI on integrating GSRD Therapy in your clinical practice! 🌈 modernsextherapyinstitutes.com/product/inte...

I highly recommend “Women’s Health Made Easy” by Dr Carys Sonnenberg, Dr Angela Wright and Dr Angela Sharma. Women’s health is often left behind because not enough attention has been paid to women’s struggles.

Today, I had the pleasure to deliver a webinar for the Society of Australian Sexologists 🇦🇺 Last week, I did a keynote for the Antioch University Conference 🇨🇦 Both were on the topic of compulsive sexual behaviours 💜

It was a deep honour to be asked to write the forewords for the BEST book on human sexuality in Estonia! 🇪🇪 The authors are Estonia’s top experts on sexuality and I’m thrilled that this book is now published! It will change lives! 💖

I recommend the book “Beyond Belief” by Katie Baskerville. It is well-researched, insightful and brilliantly written.

It was fantastic to attend the event Maverick in Sex with Cindy Gallop and Emma Sayle hosted by Gordon Smart. And it was wonderful to catch up with my friend and colleague Kate Moyle. We need better sex education to normalise conversations about sex! And we need to fund female founders! Let’s go!

I proudly support the ban on conversion practices. Join me in the campaign: stonewall.typeform.com/to/HS2Ejgc9?...

🩷 The Routledge International Handbook of Sexual Compulsivity and Clinical Sexology is out! 🩷 I’m raising a glass of pink fizz to all the wonderful authors who contributed to it.

As the first year anniversary of my mother’s death is approaching, I thought I’d write about death and its life meaning in this month’s Psychology Today blog. www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/talk...

Happy Easter to all! 🩵

It was fab speaking on relational trauma in a 2-hour webinar for The Counselling Foundation from my hotel in Antibes! We had in-depth conversations about attachment injuries and the healing power of the therapeutic relationship.

It was amazing to speak at the French sexology congress in Antibes “Journees Francophones de Sexologie et de Sante Sexuelle” on “integrating LGBTQ therapy in clinical practice”.

Here I am in Nice 🇫🇷☀️ A little down time before speaking at another conference!

It was a pleasure to present at the EMDR annual conference in Bristol on working with trauma and LGBTQ+ clients. It’s fabulous to connect with colleagues from all over the UK and beyond 💜🌈

Working with LGBTQ+ clients requires specific knowledge. It is important to establish an anti-oppressive practice. You can read all about it in my peer-reviewed article published in The European Journal of Psychotherapy & Counselling: www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1...

It was a pleasure to teach the students at ThIRST again for an online evening session. This time the topic was Chemsex. thirstlearn.com

As it is my birthday month, my latest blog for Psychology Today is on ageing men, and more specifically on having a great sex life as an ageing man. Enjoy! 💙 www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/talk...

Happy International Women’s Day 💖

It’s my birthday today! This is what being 47 years old looks like, with no filters. Let’s normalise getting older - in our own way!

It was great to catch up with Mojo founder Angus Barge in New York City and film some brand new content for Mojo! Angus invited me to get involved with Mojo from the very beginning of their adventure and I’m so pleased that the platform has become a global success!

It was an absolute pleasure to meet Cindy Gallop, founder of Make Love Not Porn, while in NYC. We had a fascinating conversation on my favourite topics: sex, porn, male sexuality, and having hot sex!

It was gorgeous to catch up with friend and colleague Cyndi Darnell in Brooklyn! We discussed all things sex therapy, life and death, and more! ❤️🌈

First stop while in NYC is the Stonewall Inn, of course. 🌈❤️🌈❤️🌈

Just landed back to London yesterday from Porto, and today I’m in an airport again! This time, I’m heading to NYC! I’m so grateful to keep being invited to contribute to fabulous things in gorgeous places! 💜

The World Meeting on Sexual Medicine, ESSM/ISSM in Porto was a blast! It is always joyful and meaningful to meet our international colleagues who do so much fantastic work in the different disciplines of sexual medicine/ sexual health 💙

It was a pleasure to speak on compulsive sexual behaviours and porn-related distress at the World Meeting on Sexual Medicine, ESSM/ISSM, in Porto.

Have you got your printed issue of Attitude Magazine yet? You can see all the amazing LGBTQ “trailblazers” doing amazing things in 2026. I’m soooooo grateful to have been included in the list! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️❤️🌈 Thank you Attitude Magazine!!!

This was me raising a glass of champagne to Attitude Magazine from a queer bar in Paris to say THANK YOU for including me in their 2026 list of LGBTQ+ “trailblazers” 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️❤️🌈 I’m so grateful for my work to be recognised in my beloved queer communities. Lots of Love ❤️🌈❤️🌈❤️🌈

It was a great joy teaching “Working with Infidelity” for my Scottish colleagues at Relationships Scotland. We had a full day of in-depth conversations on the topic, ranging from practical to existential considerations. I love diving deep with colleagues! 💙
