Dr George Booty. The PsychoTRAUMA Clinic (Convergence College of Psychotherapy)
Registered Psychotherapist, Dr, DPsych, MA Couns, MA Psych, PG Dip Spvn
I believe there is a great deal of help we may offer to the individuals within the LGBT community, in terms of love and support initially and to help with any confusions. I am not talking about conversion therapies in any way. I believe there are ways to help and I have found the there is a great deal to work with in the anima and animus as you hold the person's hand while they transition into whatever truth they truly want to hold within themselves and specifically the deep workings within their psyche and in their spirit. I have helped many lost souls to work out their true destiny and to feel comfortable with their decisions and the path they eventually choose to take.

Saffron Marriner
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP (Accred)
I can support clients with the process of coming out re. their sexuality. People within the LGBTQIA community are often affected by trauma due to factors such as discrimination, rejection and violence. Trauma can be varied and complex. It may include, but is not limited to: homophobia, biphobia, transphobia and other forms of discrimination. At times there may be rejection and estrangement from family, bullying and harrassment, physical and sexual violence, micro aggressions and systemic oppression. My clients should feel safe and free from judgment and harm within my counselling space. Trust and transparency is important. I may encourage clients to research further information regarding peer support groups which can offer a sense of community and shared understanding. This can be a valuable resource for healing and resilience. Being mindful with regard to pronouns and identities in order to ensure that my clients feel recognised and respected. It may be helpful, if needed to work through internalised stigma and self-acceptance and may involve challenging negative beliefs and promoting positive self identity. I work to a trauma informed model.

Therapy with Ben
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP
I have experience working supportively with gay and other LGBTQ+ clients, although I would not describe myself as a specialist or claim lived experience that is not mine. I offer an accepting, affirming and non-judgemental space in which sexuality, identity, relationships or any other concerns can be explored openly, without assuming that being LGBTQ+ is itself the reason for seeking counselling.

Emma Poxon
Counsellor/Therapist, MA Person-Centred Experiential Counselling
I am a non-binary bisexual therapist so I know first hand the challenges that LGBTQIA+ people face. It’s so lovely being able to have that immediate understanding of things that straight cisgender people just don’t experience, saving the need to over explain and welcoming in supposed “weirdness”. You are not a problem to be fixed, my aim as your therapist is to try to provide the right conditions to allow you to explore whatever you want to bring to therapy to support your growth. This isn't a therapeutic approach wherein I will set a treatment plan or tell you what to do. We will work together as a partnership rather than me taking away your autonomy. I absolutely love the work I do, it is the biggest privilege being let into people’s personal worlds and seeing the immense growth of my clients. I hope to hear from you soon!
