To understand and enjoy sexuality, everyone needs adequate advice, information and support.
Our education sessions provide a safe space to ask vulnerable questions in a relaxed, non judgemental setting.
One to one sessions
Our one to one / 1:1 sessions provide a great opportunity for you to ask questions and learn in a private, confidential setting, work through sexual &/or relationship issues, concerns or difficulties that you may be having.
We can discuss a wide range of topics related to sexuality including understanding your gender, keeping safe, consent, understanding sexuality, body parts, developing friendships and relationships, sexual expression, sexual preferences, sexual desires, sexual orientation, sexual identity, dating, where to go to meet someone, how to use a dating website and much more.
Our conversations can be as explicit as you like and we won’t shy away from any topics you want to discuss. There’s nothing that will embarrass us at To Be Frank and we want you to feel comfortable to talk about whatever you like.
Through our chats we can address how sexuality specific issues may be impacting on your mental health, relationships, personal health and happiness and work together to help you reclaim your sexuality and make it a positive and empowering part of who you are.
Our 1:1 sessions are unique and personalised, totally centered around you and what you feel comfortable chatting about.
We can meet in person, or we can chat on the phone or online.
