Hello! I am based online and in South and East London - I provide LGBTQ+ therapy and counselling for those who identify as gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, non-binary, queer, questioning, polyamorous, kink, ace etc. I offer short or long term individual therapy for adults and my work is queer positive, sex affirming, collaborative and fluid. I work primarily with individuals within the LGBTQ+ community, however, this is not exclusively. My approach to therapy is fundamentally and ethically built upon anti oppression, reflexivity, safety and trust. Therapy involves change, not conversion.

I am a Person Centred Therapist registered with the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I have extensive experience working with under-represented communities and helping people understanding their behaviours. My counselling journey started a decade ago, not as a qualified counsellor, but as a client. By offering a judgment free space and the opportunity to be vulnerable, my therapist supported me on my journey of self-acceptance. It is on that connection between counsellor and client that I base my work. In my humanistic approach to therapy I believe that my clients are the experts of themselves.

I provide counselling and coaching to women and people who often find themselves outside of the mainstream - LGBTQ+ people, people who have multiple relationships, practice kink or do sex work. I also offer a space for people who sometimes struggle to connect with their emotions and find they need to think and talk their way into their feelings. No one seeking therapy is broken or in need of fixing. There are always meaningful explanations for the ways you behave or how you feel, but when those aren’t obvious to you, you might find yourself struggling, questioning yourself and wondering if something is wrong with you.

You might feel overwhelmed by life's complexities and struggle with patterns tied to early experiences and family dynamics, yet you feel these alone don’t fully capture your current challenges. You seek a therapeutic space where you can address issues such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationship issues, and your inner critic, as well as the external influences that may be limiting your potential. Whether you're uncertain about therapy or not, you can choose between short-term therapy (14 sessions for individuals and 10 for couples) or open-ended therapy, depending on what best suits your needs.

I help high-performing professionals/entrepreneurs, they are often driven by logic and working in tech/finance/law/media/arts. I specialise in helping people develop a relationship with their body, and to understand the impact of their feelings and emotions on the body and vice versa. I often work with those with experience of living life on the edge, and/or complex, troubled relationships. I work well with people for whom talking about personal matters feels very difficult. I am not easily shocked and I also understand the need for taking things slowly and sensitively. My approach is kind, practical, down-to-earth and creative.

Life can be challenging; sometimes, we just need someone to accompany us and provide a space for ventilation and reflection. This is why I adopt a non-pathological, non-judgmental, client-led approach to my practice. This means I do not see you as a problematic patient or judge the issues you bring. Nor do I consider myself a superior therapist or a saviour. Instead, I see myself as a companion on your healing journey. You guide me on how best I can support you.

Transgender Counsellors
As a gender-diverse individual, why might I want to see a therapist who is also gender diverse?
A trans or gender-diverse client may want to see a therapist who is also trans or gender diverse because the client may feel safer sharing their experiences and more confident that the therapist will understand, validate, and support them. But trans or gender-diverse clients can also benefit from therapy with cisgender therapists; this is a personal decision based on the connection between the client and the therapist, and if that connection is strong, therapy will be successful.
What if I cannot find a therapist who shares my gender identity?
Therapy can still be effective if a therapist does not share a client’s gender identity; a large body of research indicates that the most important factor in successful therapy is the therapeutic alliance. A therapist can also be interviewed for sensitivity and competence on gender identity and expression to ensure they possess appropriate knowledge and skills. Many therapists have excellent training and extensive experience working with gender-diverse clients, and that expertise can be invaluable despite a therapist not sharing the same firsthand experiences.
How can I recognise a good therapist for working with gender-diverse clients?
An experienced therapist should be able to help clients explore their gender identity and expression, alleviate discomfort related to their gender identity, treat mental health challenges and trauma, address existing relationships and communication with family members and loved ones, and determine the next steps pertaining to nonmedical or medical gender-affirming interventions. To recognise a good therapist, clients can ask about these topics and explore their comfort and connection with the clinician.
How might I inquire about a therapist’s experience working with transgender clients?
Clients should feel comfortable asking therapists directly about their experience working with transgender or gender-diverse clientele. For example, clients may ask about the therapist’s training and education with regard to gender identity, how many trans clients they’ve worked with in the past, and what sorts of matters were discussed. You may wish to inquire how a therapist specifically supports the needs of transgender clients or clients questioning their gender identity. A good clinician who is nonetheless not the right fit for you is often happy to make referrals to others based on the concerns you articulate in a preliminary conversation.
