Beating bowel cancer together

Previous event: Intimacy, relationships and bowel cancer

On Wednesday 25 May 2022 we held an online support event about intimacy, relationships and bowel cancer. 

Sue Lennon, Rehab Psychosexual Therapist, provided an introduction to sexual dysfunction after treatment for bowel cancer and offered guidance on how to manage side-effects, changes in your sex life and the psychological impact it can have on relationships.

About the speaker

Sue Lennon, Rehab Psychosexual Therapist

Sue spent 28 years in the NHS, working across oncology, starting in acute medicine and inpatient chemotherapy, then out-patient chemotherapy, spent a couple of years teaching and then returned to clinical practice as a Macmillan Nurse Specialist.

Realising the sexual impact of cancer and cancer treatment was rarely discussed, she applied to Macmillan for funding to undertake a two year course in psychosexual therapy before starting a successful Macmillan Sexual Rehab clinic alongside her clinical role.

She now lives in France but continues to deliver a private rehab sex therapy service, working with anyone who suffers the sexual consequences of a life-changing illness or disability.
