Counselling and Psychotherapy

You worry about everything, all the time, but particularly at night when you should be asleep. All this stress is starting to get overwhelming – what if you can’t get it together to go to work tomorrow? What if it gets so bad that you can’t do anything at all? Is this what a panic attack feels like?

You worry about relationships, the last time you saw your family, when you’ll have to see them again. You replay conversations and interactions in your head, cringing at all the things you did wrong. You don’t think you had a ‘bad’ childhood, relatively, but every time you see your family you end up feeling weird and it takes a while to come back around.

You worry that your romantic relationships are bringing your ‘stuff’ up (stuff about your sexuality, stuff about your ex, stuff about not being good enough,) but you also know that you don’t want to mess this up and be alone forever.

– Stop sabotaging your relationships through constantly asking for reassurance or your fears of getting close. Know yourself better and communicate more effectively so you can create and keep healthy relationships.

– Improve your confidence so you can feel sure of your decisions and less guilt about your needs

– Learn to manage anxiety so it doesn’t stop you living, working and making friends.

– You’ve had therapy before but you didn’t see lasting change, or you’ve previously felt misunderstood in therapy that wasn’t queer-affirming.

– You want a down-to-earth therapist, who will be real with you and not leave long, awkward silences

– You don’t want to spend your session time educating your therapist about your queer identity.

-You are ready to try something new and are aware that therapy can take work and time.
