Gender Identity, Transsexual & Transgender Counselling
Is your gender identity causing you distress or pain?
I provide counselling & psychotherapy for anyone questioning or in conflict with their gender identity. My own experience of overcoming these challenges gives me a unique insight into the issues facing my clients and I have been working in this field for over twenty years. I am probably the only therapist to truly understand what you are going through
Do you have a male or female gender identity which is in conflict with your physical body?
Not every person questioning their gender identifies as MTF, FTM, Trans, Transsexual, Transgender, Transvestite, or Gender Queer, for some people a compromise can be the best solution. Whatever the situation, I provide the support and advice needed to empower you to decide upon the right course of action for you.
Are you already committed to or considering transitioning?
Many of my clients come to me because they feel stuck, confused or are questioning whether they can come to terms with remaining in the gender role they were assigned at birth. Some come to me because they feel a change of gender maybe their only solution. I work with male to female (MTF) and female to male (FTM) clients. I also provide counselling for children battling with these challenges. My counselling for minors requires the inclusion of their parents or guardians.
I am easily accessible to both national and international clients
My consulting rooms are located in Harley Street and Penn, Buckinghamshire
I have extensive professional qualifications and memberships
I am a member of the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP), the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP). I'm also a member of WPATH (World Professional Association of Transgendered Health) and currently undertaking a Doctoral programme with Middlesex University where I am researching treatment pathways for trans people.
