Ruth Mark-Roland Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Post Grad Diploma in Psychotherapy, Foundation and Diploma in Group Analysis
I offer support for LGBTQ+ related issues, including identity exploration, sexuality, coming out, internalised stigma, minority stress, and challenges around belonging and self-acceptance. Many of the people I work with are navigating complex questions about who they are, how they relate to others, and how to feel more at ease in themselves within a wider social and relational context.
My approach is grounded in psychoanalytic and relational psychotherapy, offering a safe, non-judgemental space to explore how early experiences, attachment patterns, and relational dynamics may shape your sense of identity and emotional life. Together, we may also explore how cultural and social narratives around sexuality and gender influence self-understanding, relationships, and wellbeing.
I work in a trauma-informed way, recognising the impact of discrimination, exclusion, or shame that LGBTQ+ individuals may have experienced. I aim to provide a steady and affirming space where all aspects of your identity can be explored at your own pace, without pressure or expectation.
I also integrate somatic awareness to support reconnection with the body, particularly where anxiety, shame, or past experiences may have led to disconnection or tension. Psychoeducation may be used to deepen understanding of emotional and relational processes, and where appropriate, I may incorporate EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques / tapping) to support emotional regulation and processing.
Therapy offers a collaborative space to develop greater self-acceptance, strengthen a sense of identity, and build more fulfilling and authentic ways of relating to yourself and others.

Jayne Batten
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CT, MPCC, MBACP
I address LGBT issues with an affirming, identity-centered lens to validate clent's experiences of gender, sexuality and the unique challenges they may face in a heteronormative or cisnormative world. Therapy supports empowerment, resilience, and self-acceptance, while also addressing the broader mental health needs within the context of each client's lived experience.

Luq Adejumo
Registered Psychotherapist, MUKCP, MBACP
I have worked with the LGBTQIA+ community for the past 9 years and I have a breath of experience with the issues that the LGBTQIA+ people encounter both through my work in private practice and also for LGBTQIA+ organisations. A key part of this work is creating a sex positive space in which my clients can safely explore all aspects of their gender, sexuality and relationship diversity without judgement. My experience as a gay man has also helped me relate to some of the issues that my clients bring to our work together.
