Hi, I’m Ellis J. Johnson. I am a fully qualified Psychodynamic Psychotherapeutic Counsellor, trainer, supervisor, speaker and group facilitator with extensive experience in working alongside trans, non-binary, queer and questioning people. I deliver training to counsellors in working affirmatively around gender and also deliver training in trans awareness, and in anti-racist practice, to organisations around the country and internationally. I also provide external supervision and consultation for a number of third-sector organisations. In the past I have provided counselling for an NHS Wellbeing service, a charity offering free counselling to trans and non-binary people, and I have worked with students

I have experience, training and knowledge about LGBTQIA+, kink/BDSM, polyamory / non-monogamy, neurodiversity and other variations in gender, sexuality and relationships. Generally this is only context, but given the societal lack of understanding and oppression, legal and otherwise, diversity or uniqueness often come up. I work with individuals, couples and larger intimately related groups. Specialisations: relationships; trauma and dissociation; ways in which the body-mind expresses itself somatically; cultural differences. I have forensic experience. I am deeply non-judgemental about “criminal” records, “offences” and accusations. Sex work is work; sex workers are most welcome.

Whether you’re anxious, stuck, unable to live to your fullest potential, having difficulty in your relationships with others or with yourself, each of us has a unique story that requires an equally unique approach with a qualified, sensitive therapist. I’m an experienced BACP-accredited queer non-binary relational integrative psychotherapist and edited Queering Psychotherapy (Karnac, 2022). Grounded in intersectional practice and working with LGBTQIA+ clients since 2014 in a gentle and invitational way, it’s my hope – wherever you are in your therapy journey – that you’ll leave feeling you understand and accept yourself better, and more connected to your agency.    

Integrative Counsellor, Psychotherapist and Supervisor based in Waterford, Ireland.

As I trained in art therapy, systemic practice, outdoors therapy, and currently in somatic trauma therapy, I am able to offer different tools and modalities as needed. I use the term queer to define my sexuality, my gender and my relationships and I’ve been always passionate about affirming diversity and countering what is dominant, normative and damaging in our lives. Within my practice as a therapist, I like to explore the diversity that comes within relationships, including those with the more-than-human. I have a small private practice in Glasgow / online, specialising in GSRD.

I am a Pink Therapy Advanced Accredited GSRD therapist. I work one-on-one with individual clients .My approach is pluralistic and integrative, meaning that I know one-size-fits-all therapy doesn’t really fit many people, and actively tailor my approach to suit my clients. My work is trauma-informed, anti-oppressive, and fat-liberatory. I am neurodivergent and welcome others who know or suspect they are too. I know different aspects of people’s lives combine to create unique lived experience, and we can work together on discovering how your experiences and identity impact you today. Through our work, we can help you better understand how your
