Gender Identity and Sexuality

Gender identity and sexuality can be deeply personal and, for some people, difficult to understand or define. Our sense of ourselves can be shaped by many influences, including our bodies, relationships, personal experiences and the society in which we live.

There is no single way to experience gender or sexuality, and questions about identity can arise at any stage of life. Exploring these questions can sometimes bring uncertainty, confusion or conflict, particularly when our feelings do not seem to fit with expectations or assumptions about how we “should” be.

Psychotherapy provides a confidential, non-judgemental space in which you can explore questions around gender identity, sexuality, relationships and self-understanding at your own pace. There is no expectation that you need to arrive with answers — therapy offers an opportunity to talk openly and make sense of your experience.
