I am a practitioner psychologist and clinical sexologist/sex therapist, currently practicing in-person in London and globally online. 'Practitioner psychologist' is a protected title in the UK (unlike psychologist, counsellor or psychotherapist) and can only be used if registered with the Health and Care Professions Council which requires completion of a doctorate (a total of 6-8 years training from undergraduate to post-graduate).
I am also one of a small number of practitioner psychologists in the UK additionally registered as a clinical sexologist/sex therapist (sometimes called psychosexual therapist). My specialist work in sexual difficulties evolved from my multidisciplinary background. Before training and working in 'talking therapy' my professional time was spent in exercise and nutrition science. Sexual difficulties, like many of the areas I work with such as anxiety, trauma and sleep disturbances, married my psychology and biology disciplines.
