MARY OXBOROUGH CLARKE
Associate (Trainee) Psychosexual and Relationship Therapist
Finding the right person to talk to can be tricky, especially when it comes to talking about sex and relationships.
As a mother and military spouse, I have experienced challenges in both these areas, and understand the importance of having a safe and open space to explore and move forward positively.

- £40 for individuals
- £60 for relationships
I also offer online therapy
- £35 for individuals

Each person is unique, and the relationship and sex therapy we offer them should be bespoke to them and their needs. This is why I take an integrative approach to practice.
Grounded in empathy, I combine techniques from different therapeutic schools of thought allowing me to provide tailored support that meets each individual’s unique needs. It allows for the exploration of desires, encourages self-awareness, and I hope fosters healing and growth.
I strongly believe in accessibility. Everyone should have the opportunity to have flourishing sexual and relational experiences irrespective of their background or identity. Or indeed their budget, which is why I’m delighted to be able to offer low cost relationship and sex therapy in Oxford.
I started my therapy journey with Cruse, a bereavement charity. I supported clients who were in the depths of grief and loss. I saw firsthand the impact a compassionate and dedicated ear could offer and how such an experience can fundamentally change who we are and how we relate to others.
I hold a Foundation Certificate in Counselling and Psychotherapy and I’m now in my final year of the London Diploma in Psychosexual and Relationship Therapy.
I’m a Student member of CORST, the College of Sexual and Relationship Therapists.

ELLA TRESSLER
Psychosexual and Relationship Psychotherapist
Intimacy, sexuality, and relationships can sometimes feel overwhelming, and it’s not uncommon to face challenges in these deeply personal areas of life. As a Psychosexual and Relationship Therapist, I offer a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore these issues at your own pace.
Whether you’re navigating difficulties with communication, intimacy, desire, or life transitions, therapy can provide the tools to help rebuild confidence and strengthen connection.

My approach to relationship and sex therapy is integrative, meaning I tailor our work together to suit your unique needs and personality.
Drawing from both CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and psychodynamic techniques, I aim to help you uncover what might be holding you back, set meaningful goals, and explore practical steps to support your growth. My aim is to create a space where you feel supported, comfortable, and gently challenged at the right moments.
I have experience working with individuals and couples facing a wide range of concerns, including vaginismus, erectile and ejaculatory difficulties, self-esteem and confidence issues, anorgasmia, gender identity and sexual orientation, trauma, shame, and performance anxiety, to name a few.
I believe everyone deserves fulfilling relationships and a healthy connection with themselves and others. Together, we’ll explore your story, identify patterns, and create meaningful changes that empower you to thrive.
I’m a Registered Member of the College of Sexual and Relationship Therapists (COSRT).
