Growing up and existing as a gay, queer or LGBTQ+ person can feel isolating and confusing. I can relate. My sessions provide a safe space to unpack your feelings, reduce anxiety, and start seeing things more clearly. I work with LGBTQIA+ people who are struggling, working things out or need a space to talk. Issues can range from shame, anxiety and depression, to trauma, relationship and family problems, and managing the weight of society’s expectations.

I am Hester (they/them), and I offer an accepting and creative space online for you to explore how to meet yourself with kindly awareness, curiosity and honesty.   I specialise in working with trans+ and non-binary clients, as well as the whole LGBTQ+ spectrum. 

Hello, I am Chartered Psychologist and Associate BPS Fellow, bringing NHS and private practice therapeutic experience to my client work.   I have expertise in LGBTQI+ and Gender Sexual Relationship Diversity (GSRD) affirmative therapy, neurodiversity (autism and ADHD), and men’s (gay and cis) mental health. I have extensive experience working with depression, anxiety, attachment issues and relationship challenges. I provide trauma informed care integrating ideas from different therapeutic approaches to meet each individual’s unique needs.

I offer GSRD-affirmative therapy and work with LGBTQAI+ clients, including gay, lesbian, bisexual, pansexual, trans, non-binary, and questioning individuals, as well as issues around relationships and compulsive behaviours. My practice is neurodiversity affirming, with extensive experience working with ADHD, autism and AuDHD.

I provide both short- and long-term therapy in a supportive and collaborative way. 

Queer affirming integrative psychotherapy supporting young people of colour with overwhelm, anxiety, and finding a home within. I’m a South Asian integrative psychotherapist, working alongside you to make sense of the messy parts inside, that might be hard to get in touch with, understand, or even acknowledge and bear, based in attachment theory, psychodynamic thinking, and creative and body-based/somatic interventions. It can feel overwhelming to want to change, but there is something in you (no matter how small that part) that perhaps believes it could be better. That there is more to living than this.

As an Integrative Relational Psychotherapist my work is grounded is the feminist principles of equality, empowerment, intersectionality and social justice.  During the last 17 years I have worked in women only and LGBTQIA+ spaces providing individual counselling to people who have experienced domestic abuse, childhood sexual abuse, emotional neglect and trauma.  I have extensive experience working with bereavement and loss having worked as a Counsellor in a Bereavement service for many years.  I tailor my theoretical knowledge, clinical experience and therapeutic skills to find a collaborative way of working with you in order to identify the heart of the issue(s)

I know that coming out doesn’t happen just once; it happens all the time. Thank you for visiting my profile. Therapy and exploring your unique life history with another person can be one of the most profound experiences. Still, it also can be very challenging on many levels, especially when it comes to talking about sex and intimate relationships. Whatever has brought you to this counselling directory, you might be looking for a safe space to talk about your life challenges and being in a world that sometimes feels rejecting, confusing, and isolating. My interests and experience are about sex
