Colin James De Courcy Richards

Somatic Sexologist, Massage & Intimacy Practitioner

Colin Richards, founder of Intimacy Matters, has been a full-time practitioner since 2005, helping over 8,000 clients improve their sexual confidence and enhance intimate relationships. With a diverse background in hospitality management, Colin transitioned into the field of psychosexual therapy in 2005, becoming a life coach and therapeutic masseur. His qualifications include training in Psychosexual and Relationship Therapy, NLP, Imago Therpay and Hypnotherapy, which have equipped him to address a wide range of psychosexual issues.
 
In 2012, Colin founded Intimacy Matters, offering sensual massage treatments, psychosensual therapies, and counseling services. His holistic approach integrates the biological, psychological, anthropological and emotional aspects of human sexuality to help clients achieve balance and fulfillment. Over the years, Colin has expanded his practice, offering group workshops, public talks, and social events that focus on enhancing sexual confidence and intimacy skills.
 
Colin’s achievements include hosting events at prestigious clubs like Home House and Century Club in London, being featured in major media outlets such as the BBC, Channel 5, Cosmopolitan, and The Times, and being a finalist as Somatic Sexologist of the year in the 2024 UK Sexual Freedom Awards.
 
Furthermore, Colin advocates for the acceptance of diverse sexual experiences. His inclusive approach ensures that individuals from various backgrounds, identities, and orientations feel represented and validated. By promoting a culture of acceptance, he contributes to the broader narrative of breaking down stigmas and challenging societal norms that can be restrictive and harmful to individuals exploring their sexuality.
 
Colin’s commitment to the exploration of sexuality is evident in his promotion of a sex-positive and curiosity-driven mindset. He encourages individuals to embrace their desires, preferences, and fantasies without judgment. This exploration, guided by somatic principles, allows individuals to navigate their own sexual landscapes authentically, fostering a sense of empowerment and agency in their intimate lives.
