Bisexual Counselling in Liverpool
Hiya, I’m Lennie.
I work with teenagers, young adults, and the grown-ups they’ve become. The ones who never quite fit the mould and are tired of pretending they do. I help teens carve out their identity in a world full of labels while supporting the parents and professionals navigating the chaos with them. Life with the people you care about should be something you enjoy, not just survive. Let’s face it, keeping your head down and pretending everything’s fine won’t get you anywhere. Together, we’ll tackle what you’ve been avoiding, rewrite the rules to suit you, rebuild your confidence, and create a life that finally fits.

Would you say your childhood was fine but can't identify many times where you felt happy? Do you experience feelings of emptiness, struggle in relationships, or find yourself always doing things for other people who never return the favour? Do you feel like you have never fit in, never belonged, or that you have to be someone else when you are around other people? Has something changed in your life and now you're finding it hard to adjust? Do you struggle to understand why you do some of the things you do? Do you feel like you can never find other people who have similar experiences to yours?

I offer a professional yet down to earth relationship. Having somewhere confidential to discuss things with someone who is unconnected to your life can help give you space to find your way again. Sessions are offered weekly or fortnightly, usually in an open ended way until you're feeling ready to stop. Come for a few sessions, a few months or come longer term. People are now learning how to use therapy over time, re-accessing support at times when it is needed most with someone who they trust to know them and their life well.

Do your feelings overwhelm you? Is it hard to stay in control? Are you unkind to yourself? I understand how hard it is to ask for help.
Untangling a lifetime of feelings and thoughts can be daunting, but with the right support you can identify those limiting patterns and change the beliefs, feelings, and responses holding you back from the life you want and the person you want to be.
Choice comes from understanding yourself, then making the right changes. I understand how hard it can be to do that on your own. I will be with you on that journey, supporting and empowering you to move from self-awareness to real, lasting change

It is your space and time, that can be used exploring whatever you wish to bring. My hope is to be someone you can reveal your true self to, without feeling judged, but to feel heard, understood and accepted.

I am an integrative, collaborative, challenging therapist. I work with clients who have decided there is something they want to change about themselves to have a different future self.

I am interested in working with complex emotional and relational difficulties and trauma, supporting people to heal from the lasting impact of adverse experiences and to move towards recovery and fulfil their potential. I am also passionate about improving access to services for marginalised populations. Over time, my professional and personal journey has shaped how I view emotional distress. Rather than asking “what is wrong with you?”, I ask “what has happened to you?”. This shift allows me to see beyond presenting problems to the person behind the distress. It also enables me to bring kindness and compassion into my work.

You might be managing your feelings alone; maybe through work, music, exercise, meditation. Maybe feeling uneasy with how you’re coping or about what’s going on. Possibly feeling lost, disconnected, or struggling to find joy. Considering how past and present experiences have impacted where you are now, and when it’s feeling okay to, it can be about what where you’d like to be in the future. It’s okay if you can’t see next steps yet. Whether you have anxiety, overwhelm, or are having the opposite and feeling very little, this can be worked with at a pace that is safe and suitable. We work together to figure this out.

I work in a way that’s person-centred, integrative, inclusive and relational. I always place your needs and values at the centre of our therapeutic work, while embracing your freedom and autonomy. I take an affirmative approach in encouraging you to bring any and all parts of your unique self; I take care to not pathologise or criticise you. I work very relationally, and I believe therapy can only be effective if there’s a strong therapeutic relationship at the heart of it. I’m interested in exploring what goes on in the therapeutic process and how this may mirror dynamics you’re experiencing in your wider life and relationships.

I work with children, young people, families, and adults who might be feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or in need of some extra support. Many people come to me wanting to better understand themselves or their child and find a way forward. I provide a safe, welcoming space to explore what’s going on, build on strengths, and feel more connected, whether that’s through therapy or support for parents and carers.

Bisexual Counsellors
What is bisexual-affirming therapy?
Bisexual-affirming therapy is a type of mental health support that fully affirms and reflects a client’s bisexual identity. It is rooted in acceptance and does not attempt to change or question an individual’s orientation. In this type of therapy, clients work with a therapist who understands the unique experiences of bisexual people. This support is especially important, as research shows that bisexual individuals face higher rates of anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation compared to other groups. Bisexual-affirming therapy acknowledges that bisexual individuals may encounter specific stressors—such as invalidation, relationship challenges, and minority stress—that require specialised understanding and intervention. Many therapists also provide couples therapy for bisexual partners, helping them navigate relationship dynamics, communication challenges, or external stressors that may impact their relationship. While not required, some clients prefer working with bisexual therapists who may bring personal insight to the therapeutic relationship. However, a non-bisexual therapist with strong training and a genuine commitment to affirmation can be equally effective. The most important factor is finding a therapist who understands how identity impacts mental health and can create a space of trust and respect.
What can a bisexual therapist help with?
Bisexual-affirming therapists can provide support across a wide range of concerns relevant to bisexual individuals. Whether through personal or professional experience, they often have specialised knowledge in areas such as the coming out process, navigating stereotypes, and dealing with common stressors. Relationship support is another key area of focus, as bisexual clients may face unique challenge when dating or maintaining relationships across genders. Affirming therapists can also help clients build coping strategies for managing discrimination or stigma. Additionally, many bisexual-affirming therapists can connect clients to other providers or community-based resources—such as bisexual support groups or LGBTQ+ organisations—that offer additional affirming spaces for connection. It's important to note that therapists provide can talk therapy and counseling services but do not prescribe medication—if medication is needed for conditions like depression or anxiety, they will coordinate care with a psychiatrist or primary care physician who can provide psychiatric medication management alongside therapeutic support.
How do I find a bisexual therapist?
The Psychology Today online directory is a helpful tool for finding bisexual-affirming therapists. You can use search filters to identify therapists who specialise in LGBTQ+ care and work specifically with bisexual clients. You can also filter by clinical specialties, therapeutic approaches, accepted insurance, session costs, and languages spoken to find the right fit. During initial consultations or early sessions, ask potential therapists about their specific training in bisexual-affirming care, their experience with LGBTQ+ clients, and their therapeutic approach to identity-related concerns. An effective bisexual-affirming therapist will demonstrate genuine understanding of bisexual experiences, including awareness of the unique challenges facing bisexual individuals. You can also look for credentials or continuing education in areas such as LGBTQ+ mental health, trauma-informed care, and intersectionality.
