Debbie Clements (MA, Gender, Sexuality, Relationship diversity)

Hi,

I'm Debbie and I'm a BACP (Senior Accredited) and Pink Therapy advanced accredited counsellor, psychotherapist and supervisor supporting LGBTQIA+ adults and young people alongside anyone who is looking for support around their gender, sexuality or relationship diversity.

I hold a Masters Degree in Gender, Sexuality and Culture and have undergone specialist training in the area. My work is also informed by previous roles supporting LGBTQI+ communities as a Youth and Community Development Worker (JNC) and through personal experience. I've worked in the mental health field for over 25 years and have supported around a wide range of issues. I'm committed towards anti-oppressive practice including anti-racism and engage in continuous personal and professional development. 

My therapeutic approach is from a relational perspective, recognising the impact that our relationships with others (e.g. friends, partners, family, communities, society) and our relationship with ourselves has on our wellbeing. I seek to provide a warm, secure and affirming space where we will explore your thoughts and feelings together to help you deepen your understanding of yourself, your patterns of relating (both to self and others) and support you in making internal and/or external changes that enhance your wellbeing. 

Does this sounds like what you are looking for? If so, please get in touch.

I also work as a supervisor to trainee, established counsellors and those in the charity and public sector. 

I am currently working online and over the phone across the UK and beyond (please note some legal restrictions apply outside UK). Video sessions-there is an option to keep video switched off if this is a preference.
