Benjamin Marr
Counsellor/Therapist, BA MA Relational Psychotherapist/ Birkbeck College - Psychodynamic Counsellor
I have extensive experience of dealing with clients from differing backgrounds whose sexual orientation, as well as their gender identity may not be a direct source of distress to themselves, but people who identify as LGBTQIA may find that the social stigma from others of living as a minority to be a source of stress or anxiety. Relational psychotherapy has the scope to positively contribute to overcoming such issues, which can also possibly have ramifications in terms of the changes in the clients’ lives. My professional familiarity with the challenges that members of the LGBTQIA community often face have been critical to successful therapy outcomes.

Alison Edwards CBT Therapy & Supervision
Psychologist, CBT Therapist, FMBPsS, MA (Hons), MSc, CertCouns, MSc
I’m experienced in supporting clients who identify as LGBTQ+, or have a family member who identifies as LGBTQ+ 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 LGBTQ+ affirmative practice.

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.
