Therapists and Counsellors Directory
Disclaimer: The therapists and counsellors who are listed in this directory do not work for, and are not part of, Gendered Intelligence.
All therapists and counsellors listed here run their own private practices or are part of other services that offer counselling or therapy. Some members of the TCN can offer special rates for (young) trans people.
As all listed therapists and counsellors have invested in attending the 2-day course and experiencing the learning opportunities it offers, have signed up to the Standards of Provision and in doing so, are expected to be committed to ongoing learning, we believe it is more likely that trans people and their friends and families will have a positive experience in their therapeutic setting.
However, listing in the Directory is not an endorsement of services or evidence that a counsellor or therapist has met particular standards of trans inclusive practice. Each therapist has space to describe their practice including their level of experience and connections in this field – some may be just starting; others will have established practices.
Clients are responsible for selecting an appropriate therapist or counsellor, and for satisfying themselves that that therapist or counsellor is right for them.
You will find contact details under each listing – please contact the therapist/counsellor directly.
