Tom Cowan Person-Centred Counselling Online Cardiff
About the Therapist
We are beautifully complex human beings and our issues as LGBTQ+ people often stem from the negative and harmful messages that are internalised from cultures, families, friends and increasingly engagement with social media.
My intention is to discover with you what it is that you think and feel when given the space to express yourself freely, without fear of judgment.
I’ve worked with LGBTQ+ clients seeking support with anxiety, depression, addiction, self harm, post traumatic stress, bereavement/loss, gender identity, sex, sexuality, kink, relationships, ADHD/Autism and more.
If you're contemplating starting counselling then I encourage you to contact me for a free, confidential 20 minute video call. This is a chance for me to learn more about what you need and answer any questions you might have, so we can understand if I'm the right counsellor for you at this time.

Person-Centred Counselling Online by Zoom
Have you been experiencing challenges that are negatively impacting your mental health?
Have you found it difficult to open up to friends, family, partners or colleagues for fear of being judged or misunderstood, leaving you unseen and unheard?
Counselling provides a supportive, inclusive and affirmative relationship to share about the issues that matter to you, at your own pace and in your own way.
I'm a person-centred counsellor. I'm here to offer you a space to be yourself. An opportunity for you to think, feel, sense and share what's happening in your world.
Do you ever have that experience of wishing you could say what was really going on but holding back?
Do you push down your own feelings and needs, offer a 'smile' or an 'I'm fine' when really you want to let it all out and take up some space?
You can be real, honest, expressive and however else you need to be.
Together we can look at a range of issues that might be affecting you such as:
- anxiety, depression/low mood,
- ADHD/Autism,
- addictions/unwanted behaviours,
- trauma,
- sexual, physical, emotional abuse,
- work pressures including burnout, discrimination,
- family challenges inc. estrangement,
- bereavement/loss,
- gender identity,
- sex/sexual health,
- sexuality,
- relationships; monogamy, non-monogamy, ethical polyamory
and any other issues that are impacting your life right now.
If you've read this and are ready to take the next step then you can contact me by email, text message or through my website to arrange a free, confidential 20 minute video call.

Before our first session we will have a 20 minute video call for you to ask any questions you might have.
I may ask you some of the following questions:
- Why you are looking for counselling now?
- What do you hope to get from it?
- Have you had therapy before? What happened?
- What worked well for you and what didn't?
- How would working online be for you?
- Do you have a safe enough space to talk freely?
- How might you know when it's time to end therapy?
This is an opportunity to meet each other before committing to ongoing counselling.
I can offer you open ended therapy or a limited number of session if that's what you need.
It's helpful to have at least 6 sessions with an opportunity to review how the therapy is progressing.
I am open to receiving your feedback at any point during the process.
Are you ready to talk? If so, then please get in touch via my website.
I offer 50 minutes sessions on a weekly basis. There is a £60 charge for each session.
I have small number of concessionary places available for people on benefits and under 25s. Please ask about this if this applies to you.
