LGBTQ+ Affirming Counsellors in Enfield, MH

Trauma Informed and Neuro Affirming Practice! I am a fully accredited adult, adolescent and child psychotherapist. As an integrative therapist, I move between different theoretical approaches including Person Centred Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural therapy, Solution Focused Therapy and Gestalt Therapy depending on each client’s individual therapeutic needs. My main therapeutic approach is Humanistic where I apply a Person-Cantered focus with clients by establishing an empathic and non-judgmental relationship in a relaxed, confidential setting with each client.

There are many reasons to engage in therapy. If you have found your way here, I imagine you may be struggling with some part of yourself or with someone in your life. You might be looking for help and support with problems that seem overwhelming. You may have a sense that you are not living the life you want to live and wish to step more confidently forward. Psychotherapy offers you a chance to slow down and step out of your daily life, refocus on your needs and goals, a path of self-development and learning.

My name is Paul O Beirne and my aim as a therapist is to provide a safe and non-judgmental space to enable adults and those in intimate partner relationships to be curious, explore, and develop awareness that can lead to positive personal and relational growth. The purpose of therapy is to welcome in all experiences, feelings and aspects of you that may not have a voice in everyday life and journey compassionately with them together. You do you; because everyone else is taken.

Are you feeling gripped by anxiety, stress or depression, over thinking things, experiencing flashbacks or panic attacks or just not feeling yourself and not sure why? If so I am here to help you. I offer a friendly, safe and non judgemental space for you to talk openly and explore those things which are affecting you. I will help you to identify and understand why situations keep occurring in your life. I believe when we are truly heard and held in a safe environment we can improve our mental health as well as have a greater understanding of how to deal with future challenges. I work with adults, couples and young people.

Alice believes that the strength of the relationship between a therapist and client is essential. It is only when a safe, non-judgemental, empathetic and trusting space is created that clients can feel empowered to explore their own thoughts, feelings and beliefs creating greater self-awareness and a deeper self-acceptance. This healing process leads to the client enhancing their relationships as well as helping them to gain more control over their life. Alice has worked with an array of issues, including bereavement, grief, depression, anxiety, stress, family and relationship issues, sexual abuse, self-harming and childhood trauma.

I'm a trauma informed psychotherapist. I use Internal Family Systems and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy to support clients to better understand their inner worlds and live a better life.

In my practice I work with a broad range of clients including young people (16-25), neurodiverse, LGBTQ+ and GSRD identifying clients. I believe that each and every one of my clients has a unique experience and so each therapy begins and ends differently.

I am a humanistic integrative psychotherapist, with experience working in the areas of LGBTQ+ issues, trauma and PTSD, gender-based violence, self-esteem and identity issues. I aim to provide a safe, non-judgmental space that allows each client to explore ongoing issues and reflect on their feelings and experiences.

I welcome all clients regardless of gender or sexual orientation. Clients who have experienced traumatic episodes in their life. Clients who have felt they have always been on their own. They may have always felt that they have had no one to protect them, never felt loved or nurtured. Clients who feel they are totally disconnected with who they are. Such clients may feel they are totally lost and have no direction in their life. I welcome all such clients to my practice. Together we will find the reconnection to Self and in doing so find a purpose and goal in life.
