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!

Alison Edwards 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 therapists who specialise in LGBTQ+ issues. I've taken specialised training on domestic abuse in LGBT+ relationships, and I'm currently working towards accreditation as a Gender, Sexuality & Relationships Diversity Therapist. I'm committed to broadening my knowledge in these areas and providing an LGBTQ+ affirmative practice.

Bristol has a strong progressive and creative culture, and its therapy community reflects this — with high demand for therapists who specialise in LGBTQ+ identity, non-traditional relationship structures, eco-anxiety, and social-justice-informed approaches to mental health. The city has a significant student population across the University of Bristol and UWE Bristol, and therapists addressing academic pressure and young adult transitions are well represented. Avon and Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust provides public mental health services, with a private practice community concentrated in Clifton, Cotham, and Stokes Croft. Bristol's history of race-related civic tensions — including the 2020 removal of the Colston statue — has made racial identity and community healing ongoing themes in the city's therapy culture.
