Hello, I’m Jon. I am a gay / queer cis-man and trans ally with many years’ experience of working as a therapist and counsellor with LGBTQ+ clients at London Friend and LGBT Switchboard Scotland. I am a qualified Cognitive Behavioural and Rational Emotive Behavioural Therapist (CBT / REBT) and offer a structured, action oriented and compassionate approach to emotional and life problems, personal development and growth. I work both online and in person in south Manchester and am happy to have a free initial 20’ phone consultation so you can see if you would like to work with me.

Hi, I’m Darren. I work with LGBTQ+ clients and their allies as a psychodynamic counsellor. My approach combines the deep, reflective thinking of psychoanalysis with a warm, supportive and collaborative counselling framework. As a queer therapist, I have a passion for supporting LGBTQ+ clients in working through life’s difficulties and challenges, and helping to drive meaningful and lasting change.

Through the counselling relationship, we will work together to manage these and, with acceptance and insight, there is a good chance that things will begin to shift for you. Relationships Interpersonal relationships can be a source of both joy and pain in our lives. By exploring these in therapy and using the therapeutic relationship in the room as a mirror to your outside life, we can build a better understanding
