As a queer therapist who is involved in non-monogamous and kink spaces, I can help you explore these parts of your life in a safe and non-judgmental place. I understand and appreciate the struggles (and joys!) of queerness, polyamory and kink. I am committed to creating a safe a nurturing environment for my clients. I also understand that choosing the right counsellor can be difficult, so it’s important to make sure you feel comfortable and like we would work well together. That’s why, if you decide we’re not a good fit, you don’t have to pay for the first session.

I’m Sebastien Black (he/they), a queer, trauma-informed online therapist (UK-wide) and in-person in Bristol via Soft Focus Therapy. I work with adults facing anxiety, burnout, attachment wounds and relational stress, using EMDR, somatic and mindfulness-based approaches, ACT and IFS-informed parts-work. I specialise in LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent clients, and am kink-aware and polyamorous-friendly. Wherever you are, we start there.

I have worked with the LGBTQ+ community for 20 years, helping individuals make positive changes in their life by overcoming and releasing the emotional burdens life brings up. I listen with compassion and without judgment, giving you the space to talk about what’s on your mind at your pace. I offer sessions by Telephone and Video.

Hi, I’m Claire & I’m a qualified person-centred counsellor working online (Zoom or other secure video platform) and on the telephone, and have undertaken specialist training to enable me to work in these ways.   I work with clients aged 18+ from all cultural backgrounds, of different sexualities & genders and (dis)abilities.

Hi, my name is Franco. I am a BACP-registered integrative therapist working online and face-to-face in London Bridge SE1. I believe therapy is a brave step towards self-awareness, healing and change. I provide a safe, supportive and confidential environment where you can explore what has brought you to therapy and where you are in life, offering space for reflection and personal growth. A large part of my work is within the LGBTQ+ / Queer community. Alongside my private practice I support clients at Gay Men’s Therapy, a specialist psychotherapy service for gay men and men attracted to men.

Hi, my name is Beth (they/them) and I am a gay, non-binary, BABCP accredited Cognitive behavioural therapist. I have worked in mental health for 9 years working with a diverse client population, and have specialist experience working with OCD and related disorders.  My practice is gender, sexuality and relationship diversity (GSRD) affirmative, offering a safe confidential, space where you are able to express yourself freely without judgement. The CBT I provide incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and mindfulness, helping you to build a different relationship with difficult thoughts and feelings. 

I’m Milo (they/them), a queer counsellor working online. I started Pink Penguin Counselling for LGBTQ+, kinky, non-monogamous, and neurodivergent people because I know how hard it is to find a space where you can fully be yourself and be met with understanding. With everything going on in the world, having a place where you don’t have to worry about judgment or safety feels more important than ever. I strive to create that safe space where we can explore whatever feels important for you together. 

I’m a gay queer therapist with over 10-year experience.  I’m passionate about supporting LGBTQIA+ individuals & couples experiencing life difficulties and would like to gain a great understanding of their thoughts, feelings, beliefs and behaviours and how they impact their lives. Online/Telephone Therapy can help people with a variety of issues. Some people may prefer to use video conferencing so that we can see each other as we speak, and some may prefer to use just audio. I have worked with trauma, anxiety/depression, loneliness/isolation, sexuality/identity/gender dysphoria, BDSM, shame, childhood/adult sexual abuse, HIV, neurodiverse, relationships and psychosexual issues.

Choosing to begin therapy is a meaningful step. It offers time to pause, reflect, and speak freely about your inner and outer world in a confidential space where you are truly listened to. My specialty is working with individuals looking for deeper meaning and possibility in their lives, perhaps questioning their sense of belonging and life choices. I welcome people from all walks of life, with a particular sensitivity to experiences of difference and otherness. Therapy can hold whatever feels important to you. Questions around identity, purpose, or direction can arise for anyone, regardless how you move through the world.
