Therapist Directory Listing Category: Online Therapy
About the Therapist
About the therapist:

My name is Sebastien Black (he/they), and I’m a queer integrative therapist offering therapy online through Soft Focus Therapy. My practice centres around care, curiosity, and consent. I support clients exploring trauma, GSRD issues, self-worth, neurodivergence, and life purpose. I draw from Internal Family Systems, existential and humanistic therapy, and somatic approaches to gently support healing and change.

I believe therapy works best when it’s collaborative, non-judgemental, and creatively attuned. I’m LGBTQ+ affirmative, kink-aware, neurodivergent-affirming, and welcoming to people in all relationship styles. My work is informed by years of study, lived experience, and deep respect for the courage it takes to reach out.
