My own activism and work with those who challenge and campaign for a more just and equitable world is vital to my decolonising and anti oppressive understanding of therapy.
I offer individually tailored training and consultancy packages, designed to fit the specific needs of different organisations and groups. I have worked with local councils, charities and NHS trusts to train their staff and develop policies which ensure LGBTQAAI people are included and affirmed on every level. I also run counselling training in conjunction with Outreach Cumbria, Liverpool John Moores University, and my own workshops. As a Pink Therapy lecturer I teach the working with sex workers unit, alongside pastoral support and supervision for the one and two year diploma students.
If you would be interested in learning more, and discussing your training needs please get in touch to arrange an intital meeting. I also helped to organise and run Pink Therapy’s Kink on Pink Seminars online, as well as facilitating blended events and presenting at Pink Therapy conferences.
I have been published in Queering Psychotherapy, a ground breaking book edited by Chance Czyzselska. In Non Binary Lives, an Anthology of intersecting identities different non binary people explored their experience of gender, in different spaces.
Gender, Sex and Relationship Diversity Therapy: Theory and Practice published by Routledge, 2025 is the first ever exploration of working with GSRD folk as a subject worthy of its own modality and with unique, as well as universal needs.
I have also written a number of articles, papers and essays exploring the intersections of margenlisation, privilege and oppression experienced by so many of us whose identities are judged to be other, reguardless of labels. I also helped to organise and run Pink Therapy’s Kink on Pink Seminars online, as well as facilitating blended events and presenting at Pink Therapy conferences yearly as part of the commitment to accessiblity and inclusion.
