Jill Deacon
Counsellor/Therapist, BSc and FdSc Person Centred Counselling. MBACP
We can all experience mental health issues. Members of the LGBTQ community seek help at a higher rate, perhaps due to discrimination and stigma still rife within families, work, peers and society at large. Depression, anxiety and other mental health-related issues can also lead to higher rates of addiction and substance misuse, damaging behaviours, self-harm and suicidal ideation and suicide.
Working with an LGBTQ affirmative counsellor can provide a safe place to empower each persons' unique challenges in life and to explore the feelings and experiences.

Donna Collins
Registered Psychotherapist, BSc (hons), PGDip, SupervisionDip
Sexuality and the many feelings and sensations this brings can be overwhelming for many, especially when fear of acceptance and shame occur. I can help you to explore these feelings within yourself and step out into the world feeling proud of who you are.

Saffron Marriner
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP (Accred)
I have a particular interest in supporting members of the LGBTQI community, whether this is any struggles regarding the coming out process which may entail feelings of loneliness, fear and shame, helping support people find their community and reach a place of self acceptance.

Alison Edwards Therapy, Coaching & Supervision
Psychologist, CBT Therapist, FMBPsS, MA (Hons), MSc, CertCouns, MSc
I’m experienced in supporting clients who identify as LGBTIQ+, or have a family member who identifies as LGBTIQ+ and are looking for a confidential place to discuss a range of issues. This includes supporting teens and young people who are transgender or going through difficulties with gender dysphoria and body issues. I attend regular supervision with a group of therapists who specialise in LGBTQ+ issues. I'm currently working towards accreditation as a Gender, Sexuality & Relationships Diversities Therapist, and expecting to complete this in June 2024. I'm committed to broadening my knowledge in these areas and providing an LGBTIQ+ affirmative practice.
