I am a qualified counsellor based in central Bristol. I run my private practice from my home in Clifton – I primarily work face-to-face, although I do have some online clients.  

Hi, I’m Richard! Welcome to my practice. I’m a gay, Registered Clinical Psychotherapist & Hypnotherapist, working with LGBTQ+ clients in person (Clapham North, Clapham Junction, Battersea) and online. If you’re ready to break free from anxiety, addictions, or self-destructive patterns, I’m here to help. My own journey overcoming anxiety, depression, and destructive habits fuels my work — I know real change is possible because I’ve been there. I offer a free 1-hour consultation to ensure I’m the right therapist for you — let’s talk.

From navigating trauma and distress, to exploring identity and intimacy, my practice is rooted in flexibility, collaborative trust, and evidence-based care. I believe that therapy allows you to take a more active role in understanding and experiencing your emotions, thoughts and beliefs. When we are not aware of our patterns, it can mean we act out certain behaviours, or experience certain feelings, without knowing why. And while we might be able to tolerate this for some time – perhaps even for a long time – I believe there is a difference between simply surviving and truly living.

My name is Dale Kingwell-Warne, a cis-gendered gay man, husband, and parent. My life has been wide and varied, enabling me to embrace and be fully inclusive of you as an individual – with your own life experiences, wants, and needs .  I have faced many personal challenges, and understand how difficult things can be.  We will work together to make sure you feel understood, listened to, and supported

LGBTQ+ Affirmative, Addiction and Trauma Informed.   My approach is psychodynamic, meaning that we will work in a way which explores links between past and present relationships and experiences. In particular, I can help you to explore how the impact of the past has led to the development of unconscious, repetitive patterns in the different parts of your life such as intimate relationships and work, which may have become unhelpful.  By becoming aware of these parts of yourself that may be hidden, more informed choices can be made and life can be experienced from a place of increased emotional freedom.

Hi, I’m Zen (he/they) and I’m an integrative psychotherapist here to support you through all avenues. In a world that’s trying to erase our identities, I am here to remind you that you’re not alone, and that we can build a safe space together that validates your identity.

Hi, I’m Becca (she/her), a queer person-centred counsellor based in Brighton. I work with and welcome a variety of clients and backgrounds, but I specialise in working with young adults and the LGBTQ+ community. As a queer counsellor, I understand the importance of having a space that is judgement free, where you don’t have to explain your queerness. I provide a space where each session is yours and you can bring whatever feels useful for you. We can explore what is going on for you, deepen your self-understanding, and begin to figure out ways to move forward, that feel right for you.

I am a queer Art Psychotherapist, Artist and Supervisor. I am warm, friendly, honest and transparent, and invite you to get in touch if you would like to try a different approach to talking therapies. I identify as neurodiverse, with a well-managed pain disability and work well with those who experience high sensitivity/trauma/neurodiversity or all of these, due to my own lived experience. I am non-judgemental, accepting and empathetic and can hold space for you to bring and explore what you need to, with words or images. I love and value the therapeutic aspects of the outdoors, story and folklore.

I grew up in northern Italy, spending much of my youth searching for identity and belonging. As a gay man, I understand the complexity of navigating sexuality, shame and self-acceptance within family and cultural expectations. Drawn to literature, philosophy and spirituality, I became comfortable with life’s deeper questions without dogma. Before training in Psychosynthesis counselling in London, I worked in luxury interior design, where discretion and sensitivity were essential. Today, I offer a calm, confidential space for LGBTQ+ clients to explore identity, relationships and life transitions with authenticity, courage and self-compassion.
