The court previously heard that Ms Janneh did not ask for or consent to the use of penile penetration as a “therapeutic technique”.

Mr Lousada, who has appeared as a guest on the ITV show This Morning, denied the allegations and said he repeatedly asked Ms Janneh if she wished to continue with the session.

Ms Janneh, told the court she had visited Mr Lousada after suffering panic attacks during consensual sex because she was abused as a child.

She said she suffered a panic attack during the session, leaving her unable to communicate and “incapable of providing valid and informed consent” as a result.

Ms Janneh, who now lives in Melbourne, Australia, reported what happened to the Metropolitan Police a day later, but the case was dropped in May 2018, the court heard.
