Ella Dixon

Ella Dixon is a trainee therapist working towards an Advanced Diploma in Psychosexual and Relationship Therapy, registered as a student member with COSRT and holds a full DBS Certificate. She works at The Awareness Centre in Clapham.

Ella provides the personal qualities such as empathy, congruence, and genuineness. She believes therapy is for everyone, especially sex and relationship therapy. There is no age, gender, racial, sexual, or other restrictions around therapy. She can guide her clients to develop their self-awareness, improving their self-esteem and confidence in their sex lives. She is a strong advocate for sex being destigmatised and removing taboos within the society. Ella specialises in Psychosexual and Relationship Therapy but has an integrative approach which means she draws on several ways of working according to what her clients require; her approach is tailored to the individual.

As a store manager in a sex and lingerie shop before she began career as a therapist, her role involved customer communication and aiding with their intimate needs. Ella has experience with difficulties such as vaginismus, premature ejaculation, erectile dysfunction, sexual trauma, desire, and exploration to name a few. Ella understands that the idea of talking to a stranger about anything related to sex could be scary, for some sex is a source of pleasure and intimacy or a source of anxiety and stress. Ella is able to help people with these issues through healthy coping strategies.
