Therapy should be a space of safety, validation, and growth, especially for LGBTQ+ people. Yet, many LGBTQ+ clients still find themselves in rooms where their identities are misunderstood or pathologised. To support queer people effectively, we must radically rethink psychotherapy. Decolonising psychotherapy isn’t just about using the right words—it’s about shifting how we view gender, sexuality, shame, safety, and healing.

Receiving an ADHD diagnosis can bring relief, confusion, grief, or validation — often all at once. This blog explores ADHD through a neurodiversity-affirming lens, examining how stigma, misdiagnosis, and social expectations impact Queer and marginalised people. It centres understanding, self-compassion, and reframing difference as diversity, while offering insight into navigating diagnosis, identity, and support without shame.

Coming out is often portrayed as a single brave moment, but for many Queer people it is a complex, ongoing process shaped by safety, culture, family, faith, and power. This blog explores coming out beyond simplified narratives, centring choice, boundaries, and wellbeing. It challenges the idea that visibility is always safe or healing, and affirms that Queer identity does not require disclosure to be valid.

Sex, intimacy, and relationships in Queer communities are shaped by far more than attraction or desire. This blog explores how shame, trauma, gender norms, power, and social exclusion influence how Queer people connect, attach, and relate. It challenges mainstream relationship models and centres consent, communication, safety, and emotional honesty, offering a compassionate, affirming perspective on Queer intimacy beyond stereotypes.
