Sex-Positive, Kink Allied Counselling in Glasgow
I work with people from diverse backgrounds who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or caught in cycles of overthinking. Clients often come with anxiety, low mood, relationship or sexual difficulties, low self-esteem, or pressure from work and social media. I also support neurodivergent clients (ADHD, autism) and those supporting them. Together, we explore what’s keeping you stuck and find a way forward that feels tailored, manageable, and meaningful to you.

Some areas of experience and interest are: sexuality and gender identity; non-monogamy and alternative relationship structures; bereavement; life transitions: big changes in relationships, work or health, including menopause; neurodivergence; & feeling "stuck" or looking for fresh perspective or direction. I am passionately LGBTQIA+ affirming.

With my own roots in Glasgow, I know how hard it can be to reach out for support, when mental health and wellbeing isn't always talked about or understood.

Whether you feel anxious, stuck, or weighed down by past experiences, I’ll meet you with warmth and honesty and together we’ll find a way forward.

In a society where individualism, competition and oppression of what is different are dominant, it is hard to find ways for our lives to unfold in expressive and mutually empowering relationship with fellow humans and more than human beings. The relational issues passed through generations that had a traumatic impact on our upbringing, the difficulties related to changes and challenges we encounter throughout our lives, the fear that comes with the uncertainty of an unpredictable future, can be addressed through therapy so that we can bring more joy, ease and agency into our lives.

We are all unique individuals, so it makes sense that therapy is not a one-size-fits-all approach. I aim to provide a non-judgmental and compassionate space for individuals of all flavours to work through their difficulties. Gender and sexuality may not be the reason you are seeking therapy, but I understand the significance these parts of you may play in your life. Therapy should never be a place where you feel the need to watch what you say or educate your own therapist about who you are. Therapy is time for you.

I’m Dr Luke, a HCPC-registered Clinical Psychologist offering online therapy across the UK.

Therapy can offer a space to slow things down, make sense of patterns, and begin living more in line with your values.

Why might an individual want to see a sex-positive, kink-allied therapist?
A sex-positive or kinky individual may want to see a sex-positive, kink-allied therapist because the client may feel safer and more supported discussing their experiences and challenges. A therapist who identifies as kink-friendly will have experience with clients having diverse sexual preferences and will likely be nonjudgmental and supportive about issues brought to the table. It is important to note that sex-positive, kink-allied individuals may find equal success with therapists who do not have such specialised knowledge and background. The most important factor in the success of therapy is for the client and practitioner to form a strong, trusting bond.
Do therapists have special training to gain expertise in sex-positive, kink-allied treatment?
Generally, no. There are limited training programs and unofficial accreditations that therapists can pursue, but a therapist’s expertise will ultimately come from their previous experience with similar clients, their engagement with organisations that promote sex positivity or kink-allied lifestyles, and the importance they place on safety and cultural sensitivity.
How can individuals recognise a good sex-positive, kink-allied therapist?
An experienced therapist is able to help clients explore their sexual identity and expression and relieve any discomfort or stigma attached to discussing such matters and the client’s overall challenges. A therapist who is sex-positive and kink-allied is able to create an environment that honors a client’s experience and sexual preferences. To recognise a good therapist, clients can simply ask directly about topics and issues important to them and gauge their comfort level and connection with a clinician based on the responses.
Can clients benefit from having a therapist with a focus on sex positivity and alternative sexual lifestyles?
Some individuals may feel most comfortable knowing that the clinician they’re working with has a commitment to creating an atmosphere of sex positivity and has experience with relationship diversity and alternative relationship structures. Working with a sex-positive, kink-allied therapist may help clients respect their own challenges and improve identity-affirming treatment.
