I have 25 years’ experience providing therapy for couples, individuals and groups. I’ve worked as an actor, author and award-winning journalist at the BBC. In the 1990s I volunteered with the Terrence Higgins Trust. I trained at Richmond College and Thames Valley University, with studies in couple and sex therapy at Birkbeck College. I’ve been a counsellor at West London Centre for Counselling, a group facilitator for male survivors of sexual abuse at Survivors UK, and a sex therapist for a national newspaper. At City Lit Institute I’ve offered professional development workshops, facilitated personal development groups and taught trainee counsellors.

Hi I’m Emma, my journey to becoming a counsellor and coach has been shaped by both professional background and personal understanding. With experience in the corporate world, I bring practical insight into workplace dynamics and career challenges. As a mum balancing family life and work, I understand the challenges of finding balance in today’s demanding world. 

I’m a queer therapist based in Edinburgh, offering both in-person and online sessions. My practice is deeply informed by an understanding of identity, sexuality, and belonging, with a particular focus on the unique challenges faced by LGBTQIA+ individuals. I strive to create a therapeutic space where clients feel affirmed, seen, and understood. I have experience working with trans and gender-diverse clients and am attuned to themes of grief, shame, empowerment, and joy. As a sex-positive and kink-aware practitioner, I am committed to fostering inclusive, accessible therapy that honours the complexities of each person’s lived experience.

As a therapist I profoundly believe that change is possible, and that every individual has the potential for growth. My hope is for us to develop a therapeutic relationship that will be healing for you. As a gender, sexuality and relationship therapist I offer a warm, empathetic approach and together I hope we can create a space for you to be vulnerable and explore whatever you wish to bring. Counselling is an opportunity to work through pain, hurt, resentment and anger, or it can be a place to explore a new way of being.  

Hi, I’m Jaye (she/her), a neurodiverent queer cis woman and a Humanistic and Integrative therapist based near Arundel, West Sussex offering both in-person and online sessions. I am an accredited member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and member of the EMDR Association UK.  I specialise in supporting individuals to recover from trauma; specifically domestic violence and sexual abuse, working with adults who are LGBTQIA+, questioning their identity or gender non-conforming, and those experiencing the unique challenges being neurodiverse can bring. I welcome you as a human, ready to meet you with curiosity, warmth, and respect. I

Hi, I’m Rosie (she/her), a Brighton-based therapist offering in-person and online sessions. I work within the Humanistic tradition, grounded in Existential-Phenomenological therapy. I offer a warm, collaborative space where you can show up just as you are. Together, we can explore what matters to you. I’m mixed-race and hold an intersectional lens, with experience in the charity sector supporting neurodivergent clients, people from refugee backgrounds, and trans-inclusive women. I believe therapy is a political act, creating space for voice, choice, and self-understanding in a world that often silences.

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.

I’m Anna, a humanistic counsellor working online and in person in Hackney. I currently have a small amount of availability for new clients, mostly in daytime slots – please contact me for more details.

I have space in person on Tuesday 12pm and 3.30pm and online on Thursdays.​​ I am Jen, a person-centred therapist working in person and online with clients who are LGBTQIA+ and GSRD. I am a proud member of this community and identify as trans non-binary and queer. My heart is with working with queer clients, and my experience of being othered allows me to relate to and empathise with a range of experiences in the LGBTQIA+ community.
