Oncosexology

Sexuality doesn’t disappear with illness, but it often becomes harder to access, talk about, or feel safe within. At The Fitzroy Practice, we offer specialist oncosexology support for individuals and couples navigating the impact of cancer, chronic illness, or medical treatment on their intimate lives.

Illness can alter more than just the body; it can shake your sense of identity, shift how you relate to touch, and create distance in even the most loving relationships. Whether you're experiencing changes in arousal, desire, sensation, or body image, we offer a compassionate space to explore what intimacy means now, without shame, pressure, or expectation.

Our approach helps you

  • Reconnect with your body after surgery, treatment, or trauma

  • Make sense of changes in sexual function, desire, or relational dynamics

  • Rebuild trust, closeness, and erotic connection with your partner

  • Process grief, fear, and identity shifts linked to illness

  • Reclaim your right to pleasure and emotional connection

This is tender work, and you don’t have to do it alone.
