About me and my therapy practice
I can offer a safe, confidential, accepting and non-judgmental space, with a focus on providing LGBTQIA+ affirmative counselling to all clients who identify as LGBTQIA+ or are exploring their identity and sexuality, with extenisve experience with trans/non-binary people, as well as their family and friends who may need an understanding counsellor to work with.
I also offer counselling to people who are looking for support for other life challenges and is not limited to people who identify as LGBTQIA+. Currently I also work with children and young people of secondary school age, please reach out if you have a child or young person and we can arrange an initial discussion.
