I am a non-binary, LGBTQ+ affirmative psychodynamic therapist. I am passionate about making informed, non-judgemental therapy accessible for trans and queer communities. The way that I work focuses on the connections between our past and present relationships and experiences. By exploring how we have become stuck in unhelpful patterns, psychodynamic therapy can help us to recover a sense of choice and freedom in the way that we move through the world and relate to others. My approach also takes account of the importance of identity and cultural background in shaping our experience, and the intersections of oppression and mental health.

For many years, I didn’t believe in therapy. I thought friends and family could support us through difficulties and didn’t see the need for professional therapists.   But my views changed when a close friend went through a very painful period in their life and had counselling. I saw how therapy transformed them and began to think differently about it. I realised that, while the support of loved ones may be sufficient for some, for many it is invaluable to talk to someone objective, who is professionally trained to help.

I work in Private Practice from Farringdon and New Cross Gate. I identify as queer and genderfluid. ​ After starting my working life as an actor, I began my counselling journey over 30 years ago as a Samaritan volunteer and spent 10 years working as a Counselling Supervisor at ChildLine. I managed METRO charity’s LGBTQIA+ Counselling service for 11-25 year olds, as well as being responsible for covering the adult service. I am a member of the Gendered Intelligence Network for Therapists and Counsellors. I also am a qualified teacher. Please see my website for current availability.

I am a person-centred counsellor. This means I am here to accompany you on your journey with empathy and without judgment. I work on the principle that you are an expert on yourself and therefore you are the expert in how to resolve your difficulties. You are entirely free to bring whatever you need to sessions and express yourself however you feel is most effective.

Hello there, I’m Nat, I’m a queer counsellor and an Accredited member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I offer short or long term therapy, and I am currently with clients online only.  I work with and welcome people from all different backgrounds and life experiences (18+). I have a background in working with sexuality and gender.  Many of my LGBTQ+ clients also experience neurodivergence such as ASD or ADHD and I have done additional training and self-education in this area.

Hi, my name is Gordon. Welcome! Born and raised in London I can be considered many aspects of the growing LGBTQAI+ community.  In addition, I am an experienced queer male counsellor based in Manchester, working both online and in person. Therapy helped me to untangle my relationship with myself and my emotions from those of others. The world alone is a chaotic place to manage our own unknowns, anxieties, and traumas.  I understand that everyone experiences the world in different ways, so unique problems require bespoke responses.        

My personal approach is integrative, which means that I draw from a number of counselling models and techniques, including psychodynamic, existential and humanistic. My therapeutic stance is adaptable to your individual needs and I offer both short and longer term work. I am an experienced and qualified BACP registered counsellor and psychotherapist. I am working in accordance with the BACP Ethical Framework. I have a Psychology (BA) degree and have undertaken comprehensive training and gained my diploma (PgDip) and Masters (MA) in Counselling and Psychotherapy from Regent’s University London.

I became a therapist to help people because life can be hard, and it doesn’t always give us a chance to get our head around what’s happened to us. I offer a professional, down-to-earth relationship to support you while you explore your emotions and experiences.       Who I am in the therapy room is who I am in day-to-day life, I hope to show up as my full self and I hope you will feel able to too. I strive to make my practice affirmative and inclusive because I often find that aspects of people’s identity affect their
