Dr George Booty. The PsychoTRAUMA Clinic (Convergence College of Psychotherapy)
Registered Psychotherapist, Dr, DPsych, MA Couns, MA Psych, PG Dip Spvn
Hurting people need someone to help them heal. There is no magic wand and there is no magic counsellor for this. It is simply caring and at the same time to deal with trauma that may have been induced when the sentence and prognosis appeared to be pronounced as a sentence which could have been traumatising to the sufferer.

Benjamin Marr
Counsellor/Therapist, BA MA Relational Psychotherapist/ Birkbeck College - Psychodynamic Counsellor
With all immune-related conditions, there tends to be created an entire panoply of feelings that have the capability to weigh down people who have contracted them. In such cases, relational psychotherapy can be very useful in helping to overcome most non-productive feelings that a client might be facing. It can be relatively easy for clients to allow themselves to believe that their lives are somewhat spiralling out of control. What is most prevalent in the first number of sessions with this group of clients is how the shock of diagnosis can be displayed either by complete denial e.g.”I’m fine” or through a course of body modifications such as tattoos, piercings, cosmetic surgery. Amongst gay men who are HIV positive, it is not uncommon to develop an addiction for building as a means of masking their feelings of physical inferiority. Amongst this group, of clients, addictions in many ways forms a ghetto within a ghetto; they are gay men, but trap themselves further by becoming addicted to chemsex. This is quite a positive group to work with in regards to developments.
Equally, a client may bring to therapy an extreme sense of anxiety, brought on by receiving their diagnosis of conditions such as HIV or Hepatitis. Relational Psychotherapy can usefully contribute to assisting with the dispelling of such feelings.

Luq Adejumo
Registered Psychotherapist, MUKCP, MBACP
I worked as a psychotherapist for the Terrence Higgins Trust, the UK’s largest HIV prevention charity in the UK during my training. Doing this work gave me an insight into the issues that abound for those who have just been diagnosed. My experience as a gay man has also helped me relate to some of the issues that my HIV+ clients bring to our work together.
