I am a queer somatic therapist working with clients experiencing all sorts of trauma and stress to bring about trauma resolution and nervous system well-being.

My direction since childhood has led me on the quest towards my own inner freedom. This has led me in different avenues over the years.  First was the task to explore, accept and honour a sexuality that did not fit the hetero-normative framework. Being in a female body this lifetime and honouring the various genders that choose to express themselves during different life stages and seasons, to noticing and honouring the way my sexuality and my attractions have also not fit in, in the unspoken rules of the LGBTQI + community either.   Being an outsider, is something I have

I’m Maria (she/her) – an intersectional queer, neurodivergent (ADHD), disabled, fat and polyam woman. I’m a BACP-registered integrative therapist working with children, young people and adults.  My focus is on offering a compassionate, accepting, empathic, nonjudgmental space that is radically focused on you. I offer in person sessions in Brighton & Hove and online sessions for humans elsewhere. I believe that: You were born good and innocent. You are not broken and you don’t need fixing. You deserve love and belonging. You have the power to change.

Hello, I’m Micheál (pronounced: mee-hol, pronouns: they/them/theirs) and I’m an integrative psychotherapeutic counsellor based in Glastonbury, Somerset. The aim of counselling is to help you understand your thoughts, feelings and experiences, gaining a deeper understanding about yourself and empowering you to grow where you feel you would like to make a change.  Sometimes people come to counselling to process a recent major life change, sometimes to talk through immediate worries/issues and other people recognise a need to explore more longstanding issues. I have particular experience in working with people who identify as LGBTQ+ or GSRD (gender, sexuality and relationship diverse).

I have worked as a psychotherapist for the queer community for over 10 years. I am also also a clinical supervisor and trainer for MIND and the NHS. I am also a fully accredited BACP counsellor and senior psychotherapist (with  having completed a course in advanced psychotherapy which is part of a PhD programme at CCPE.) I am also an individual and group supervisor having qualified at the Institute of Group Psychoanalysis (IGA)

I offer face-to-face therapy for individuals and couples from my practice in central Edinburgh. I support LGBTQ+ clients in exploring identity, healing from past experiences, navigating anxiety or feeling stuck.I also work with couples wanting to rebuild trust, strengthen connection, or move through challenges together. Whether you’re seeking personal growth or support in your relationship, I offer a calm and non-judgemental space to explore what’s going on—at your pace.With genuine care and integrity, I help clients feel heard and understood—opening the way for meaningful insight, deeper connection, and lasting change.

My name is Frankie (she/they).   I’ve been working as a counsellor since 2009, having a ‘person-centred’ base of training. This means I understand the value of a non-judgmental, safe place to talk, where you can be heard and accepted within a genuine, safe, and compassionate therapeutic relationship. I work to create a safe place in counselling to support you to find your way forward, offering a relational, authentic approach, tailored to your preferences, strengths and needs.    

Life can feel overwhelming and stressful sometimes. It can also just suck. I can offer you a space to talk about what you’re struggling with. I hope that you’ll feel heard and seen, without feeling judged. Together, we can explore what’s going on for you in your life right now, the ups and downs of your childhood, or your joys and fears for your future. I work with queer people particularly and activists, and those affected by stress, burnout and insomnia.  

Asking yourself how you can make your life more meaningful, in spite of whatever issue you may be struggling with? Psychotherapy can help you make sense of it and move forward. I am a UKCP registered Existential Psychotherapist, and I specialise in working with issues surrounding gender, sexuality and identity, and the specific needs of the LGBTQIA+/ GSRD community. Get in touch if you would like to organise an introductory session.
