Intimacy & Sex

Intimacy & Sex
Despite the fact it might feel like a normal and natural part of life, sex is a multi-faceted topic that can be difficult to come to terms with. Particularly if you are living with a chronic health condition. Whether you want to get to the bottom of what sex really is or if you have questions about how communication and intimacy can change over the course of a relationship, we’ll have the answers. Working closely with Dr Naomi Sutton, a consultant physician and public advocate for all things safe sex, we cover the topics that really matter.

Dr Naomi Sutton
Dr Naomi Sutton works as a Consultant Physician in the NHS at Rotherham Sexual Health Services. Her passion is in education and raising awareness of sexual health while busting a few myths along the way. She starred in series 1 and 2 of the E4’s ‘The Sex Clinic’ which “helps young people get their sex lives back on track” and has talked frankly about vulvas, sex in old age, and other sexual health subjects, on C4’s ‘Steph’s Packed Lunch’.
Naomi has recently developed Sex Education materials with the charity ‘You Before Two’ which have been PHSE accredited. She believes fun, clear and accurate education is key to combatting a lot of the struggles she sees people presenting with in her clinics.
Naomi is proud to be a Trustee for the charity Saving Lives UK – which exists to raise awareness of HIV and STI testing and reduce associated stigma – and is an Ambassador for the Eve Appeal, a charity that raises awareness of the five gynaecological cancers.
