I have been working in the field of psychosexual health and sexual intimacy since 2005. I created Intimacy Matters in 2012 and since then I have helped over 6000 people in many aspects of their relationships and sexuality. I have discovered and use various different approaches that are not generally covered by conventional methods, to help people in this intimate part of their life   My approach could be described as humanistic in that I look at the biological, psychological, social, anthropological and sexual influences behind our sensual desires, curiosities and fears. I work with men women and couples of all sexual orientations. I offer sensual massage treatments, psychosensual treatments and  I run individual and group workshops to enhance sexual confidence and sex play skills.  I give public talks and run social events. I am based in Central London. – Read More

A sensual massage is given with a genuine sense of care and intimacy – incorporating relaxation, pleasure and arousal of the body. It combines traditional therapeutic massage with intended sensual arousal and erotic stimulation. Receiving a sensual massage produces immediate physical and emotional benefits. When we are touched and particularly when receiving sensual, arousing touch, remarkable things happen to our bodies. Doctors and scientific researchers are increasingly discovering the fantastic benefits to health and well-being that regular sexual arousal produces. Here are some facts.  Read More

Help with sexual performance, inability to orgasm and overcoming fears around physical intimacy and sex.

I trained in therapeutic and Swedish massage in 1995. In 2010 I completed a two-year training in Psychosexual and Relationship Counselling and in 2011 I studied the Imago Relationship Process. Since then I have given over 10,000 hours or treatments. Rather than offer my bodywork and my counselling experience separately, I saw a benefit to combining these to create an integrative treatment that could both emotionally and practically support men, women, and couples who were experiencing sexual performance problems. I called this treatment Psychosensual Therapy. [Read more]

How I Became a Sex Engineer

A talk by Colin Richards as featured in Channel 5’s The Sex Business 

Next Date – TBC

Doors open – 7 pm welcome drink to 10 pm

Price – To be confirmed

Venue –  To be confirmed

Colin gives an entertaining, insightful and hilarious account of his life journey so far that brought him from the wild and windy South Devon coast to skyscraper living in central London, from being sent to boarding school at 8 years old and cooking egg and bacon for a hundred hotel guests to becoming the person women go to with orgasm issues and who couples seek out to help reignite their lives and who men learn from to become more confident lovers. Colin questions – are we led by fate or do we subconsciously steer ourselves into the lives we eventually find ourselves living? What drives us to do what we do? How do the actions of others affect our life path and how can we ensure we live the life that we want, rather than the one that others expect us to live.
