The Speakeasy Space
Meet the Facilitators
-
As a Psychosexual and Relationship therapist I have worked with a number of clients facing sexual dysfunction in their lives, I help by creating a safe space to support them through processing their anxieties and stresses, shaping therapy to match their personal needs and focus on their wants and needs for the future.
I work in an integrative way, meaning I’ll utilise tools and techniques from multiple therapeutic approaches to suit the client’s process.
The Speakeasy Space will be using similar tools with the added support of Zoe and the group setting. We hope to create a space which allows everyone to feel heard, appreciated and support by people who are experiencing similar things.

Hi, I’m Zoe, and I am a certified Sex and Relationship Therapist. I believe sex, intimacy and relationships are an essential aspect of health. Just like physical or mental health needs, your sexually wellbeing deserves care and attention. I am passionate about women’s heath as it is often and area under looked and under researched. Although pain during sex may common it isn’t normal, and I want women to be able to connect with pleasure instead of pain. I provide a supportive space where you can work through challenges, develop healthier and happier connections and explore and embrace pleasure.
UPCOMING PROGRAMMES
UPCOMING PROGRAMMES
Vaginismus 6 week Programme
Our first group therapy programme is open to anyone with a vagina experiencing vaginismus or painful sex, whether you have a formal diagnosis or not. If painful sex or the fear of it is affecting your relationships, dating life, or sense of self, this group is here for you.
The programme runs for six weeks, and each session focuses on a different theme. We draw on psychotherapy principles and a sex therapy approach, combining self-reflection, processing emotions, sharing experiences, and learning new perspectives, tools, and techniques. You’ll also receive a workbook via email before the group begins, which you’ll use during sessions and for homework between them.
The group will have a maximum of 12 participants, ensuring plenty of time and space for everyone. There will also be the option to join a peer-support WhatsApp group, so you can connect with others between sessions (though this is entirely optional). Before the programme starts, we’ll meet with each participant for a short 1:1 session, giving you the chance to share your experiences and get to know us.
