It feels like a really hard time to be queer and/or trans at the moment, I'm here to hold you and have understanding and experience.
My lived experience as a queer, polyamorous person lends itself to a deeper understanding and empathy of the experiences of queer ( LGBTQ+) and non-monogamous people. Maybe you wish to explore your gender identity, how you’re perceived in the world or explore different relationship styles. I am also kink-aware and sex positive.

I also specialise in LGBTQ+ counselling, working affirmatively to support the unique challenges found in community and identity.
Often, those in pain may come to counselling in complex mental binds. These challenging emotions may present outwardly as forms of anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and so on. I offer a space where we can explore the pain and challenges you're facing with compassionate curiosity. We may at times pause to examine what is brought to the space, by thinking about the more abstract and emotional undercurrents, in order to collaboratively come closer to an understanding regarding what your pain is made of.
I provide a space free of judgment and shame, and a willingness to walk alongside your emotional world.

With particular experience in LGBTQIA+, Neurodivergence & the Performing Arts, I offer a compassionate, sincere and confidential space for individuals and couples to work through their experiences.
My core approach is rooted in Transactional Analysis and Integrative Psychotherapy; humanistic and relational frameworks which look at how the past might be living in the 'here & now'. What I love about Transactional Analysis (or TA) is the flexibility it offers as a lens for the rich spectrum of human experiences, and variety of frames of reference.

I'm a bookworm, rock-climbing gay Northern cat-Dad - I understand the importance of connecting on a personal level.
I also believe that the problem is separate from the person, and my goal is to empower you to overcome obstacles. Finding the right therapist can be daunting. I specialise in holding space for complexity while ensuring each session aligns with your hopes and preferences. Remember: Hope is not a trait we have inside us, hope something we do with others.

As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, ND, a sex positive counsellor and supervisor i know the need for a safe, accepting space for what you want to bring to therapy.
I work with relationships & all family dynamics - ‘logical and biological’ - stuck communicating safely through conflict and disconnect. In therapy we work together to find a compassionate understanding of the challenges you have, how they are impacting you, and strategies to think, feel and be different in them to feel safe and secure. Knowing how to have confident relationships with those around us is how we thrive and this often means learning new ways to talk, act and self advocate within them. Communication is the lever of connection and psycho-education is part of our therapy so we understand ourselves, and others, better.
