Trauma, Sex & Relationship Therapy.
Hello and a warm welcome, I’m Charlotte Deverell, an experienced registered Relational Integrative Counsellor & Psychotherapist. In addition, I’m also a training Clinical Sexologist (Sex Therapist) & Relationship Therapist. I work online with individuals & couples of all genders & orientations.
My work centres on shame and trauma, especially as they show up in sex, intimacy, & relationships. This includes sexual trauma, intimacy challenges, attachment wounds, & chronic shame that impacts self-worth and connection. My approach is trauma-informed, relational, & grounded in helping clients feel safer in their bodies & relationships.
I work with the parts of you that learned to survive through shame by hiding, silencing, pleasing, fleeing, fighting, or compensating. I support people who struggle with feeling “too much,” “not enough,” or fundamentally wrong—often shaped by early attachment wounds, relational trauma, or harmful sexual experiences.
Many of the people I support carry trauma & difficulties related to sex, intimacy, or relationships—and feel disconnected from their bodies, desires, or sense of worth. Therapy is a space where we slow things down, make sense of what happened, and gently reclaim choice, safety, and connection. Together, we work toward self-compassion, nervous system regulation, and more authentic, satisfying connection.

It takes courage to be here, I see you. I help individuals & couples who:
Are seeking secure & healthy relationships, but find themselves repeating old patterns, having the same argument & encountering the same issues in different relationships & dating.
Are finding it difficult to trust, to feel safe, to feel seen or heard & are wanting it to be different.
Have experienced struggles or trauma in the past or present which are keeping them from moving forwards.
Feel overwhelmed & disconnected from their bodies, their needs & are no longer sure of who they are or what they need.
Are experiencing difficulties with sexual function, painful sex, erection issues, low-desire, little pleasure & lack of intimacy.
Have experienced relationship ruptures, such as betrayal and are afraid of losing their relationship.
I will work collaboratively with you to tailor our work to your needs and provide a joyful, inclusive, queer & LGBTQ+ safe space where every part of you & your relationship is welcome.
