LGBTQIA+ Inclusive Hypnotherapy in Oxfordshire and Online (UK)

Inclusive therapy, creating a safe and supportive space for all to thrive.

A Safe, Affirming Space for LGBTQIA+ Clients

As someone with lived experience within the beautiful diversity of the LGBTQIA+ community, I understand the importance of feeling truly seen and supported in a therapeutic setting.

“I work with clients across the LGBTQIA+ spectrum, including gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, non-binary and queer individuals, providing a safe, affirming and inclusive space where you can explore your experiences and goals through Solution-Focused Hypnotherapy—whether you’re seeking support with anxiety, confidence, low mood, identity, or emotional wellbeing.

Sessions are available online across the UK or in person from my private therapy room in Upper Heyford (near Bicester, Oxfordshire).

Understanding the Emotional Challenges Faced by the LGBTQIA+ Community

Taking the first step towards therapy can feel both empowering and a little daunting. It’s a brave and important choice—one that reflects a commitment to self-awareness, emotional growth, and living more authentically.

My practice is thoughtfully designed to provide a safe, affirming, and inclusive space where LGBTQIA+ individuals can explore emotions, work through life’s complexities, and build greater confidence and resilience.

Common Emotional Struggles May Include:

Many people within the LGBTQIA+ community face additional emotional pressures due to societal stigma, discrimination, identity exploration, and the challenges that can come with coming out or being misunderstood. These experiences can sometimes contribute to emotional difficulties such as:

  • Persistent low mood

  • Increased anxiety or stress

  • Struggles with self-esteem or self-worth

  • Difficult thoughts or emotional overwhelm

Solution-Focused Hypnotherapy offers a gentle, collaborative way to focus on the future, reduce stress, and build inner resources in a safe, non-judgemental space.
