As a Chartered Psychologist and HCPC Registered Counselling Psychologist (PYL18238), I specialise in talking therapies, the therapeutic relationship and understanding psychological distress in non-pathologising ways, taking into account the social, cultural and multiple contexts of each person. We can meet online or ‘in person in the room’, in Leith, Edinburgh or Dalkeith. **5th May 2026 update – I don’t have availability currently, and will next update at the start of June 2026. Please get in touch then.**

Rebel Therapy is for punks and poets, baristas in bands, anarchists, artists and multi-hyphen misfit. It’s for ravers, screenwriters, sex workers, drag artists, dancers and dreamers. Developed in response to my decades of experience as an active participant in my local queer and arts communities, Rebel Therapy is a therapeutic counselling service for anyone who’s ever felt like an outsider. A safe, supportive, confidential and compassionate space where you can share, explore and process without judgment.

There are lots of reasons why someone might consider therapy; it could be due to anxiety, depression, the breakdown of a relationship, bereavement, or a nagging feeling that something does not feel quite right. I am here to provide you with a safe, confidential space where you can feel supported in your journey of self-exploration, allowing you to process your thoughts, feelings, behaviours, hopes, and fears. I believe that through therapy we can gain insight and understand ourselves better, which can be life changing. I offer affordable, low-cost therapy, and each 50-minute session is £45.00.

Hello and thanks for taking a look at my profile. I’m Mel, a queer therapist working online throughout the UK and in person in Coventry, West Midlands. Prior to being a therapist I worked in the Criminal Justice System for 18 years. Working with people who commit offences and also the victims of crime. I have in-depth knowledge of sentences, Courts, Prisons and the Probation Service. 

My name is Ben and I am a queer-affirming, integrative relational therapist working in Hackney and Tottenham.       We all have moments in which we question where our lives are headed. For many of us, these moments can be layered with additional complexity – whether you’re navigating identity, processing experiences of exclusion, or simply wanting to understand yourself more deeply. If you’re feeling lost, numb, restless, overwhelmed, trapped, or simply curious, therapy can be a space to slow down and explore what’s going on inside.                           

I am a mature, queer, cisgender, pluralistic counsellor living with hidden disabilities, with lived and professional experience of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), ADHD, and neurodiversity.

Hi, I’m Karen. I’m an LGBTQIA+ affirming relationship therapist working with adults and couples to strengthen relationships, improve communication, and navigate life’s challenges. Whether you’re feeling disconnected from your partner, exploring your identity, coming out later in life, living with neurodivergence, or carrying the impact of trauma or past relationships, I offer a warm, collaborative and non-judgemental space where you can feel heard, understood and supported. Having come out later in life and being neurodivergent myself, I bring both professional expertise and lived experience. My aim is to help you build healthier, more fulfilling relationships.

I’m Mark, a body-oriented Integrative Psychotherapist and trauma informed EMDR therapist based in Hackney, London, offering both online and in-person therapy sessions. 

I’m a queer therapist working with LGBTQ+ people and creatives, and often people who are both. I came to therapy partly through my own experience of navigating identity, and I bring that alongside 20 years as a working musician and artist. When you talk about your queer life or your creative work, I’m not translating. I’m with you. Sessions are calm, insightful and honest. I’ll listen carefully and push back when it seems useful. gently, but genuinely. I work in person at London Bridge and Golders Green, and online.

I’ve spent more than a decade supporting people through traumatic and difficult times, including five years focused on LGBTQ+ mental health and wellbeing. For many years I managed a national LGBTQ+ listening service, specialising in supporting people affected by domestic abuse,  sexual abuse, suicidal feelings, and conversion therapy.
