Hi, I'm Carolyn (she/her), a self identified queer cis human, whose passion and niche focus is supporting the mental wellbeing of our Gender Sexuality Diverse Communities. I work from a non-medicalising Queer informed lens as a Bio-Psycho-Social Counsellor. Learn more about me here.
I recognise and acknowledge the cisgender hetero normative societal attitudes that our LGBTQA+SB communities
face everyday, and more specifically when finding and accessing queer informed, affirming, accepting, inclusive,
holistic - non-medicalising support for their mental well-being, my aim is to break down these barriers.
Your LGBTQA+SB identity is an important aspect of who you are, but may not be the main reason you are seeking counselling support, further Gender Sexuality Diversity does not automatically equate to poor mental health. As your Counsellor I will focus on your presenting concerns that are impacting your well-being.
I also offer LGBTQA+SB informed practise education and consultancy for allied mental health practitioners upskill their knowledge of LGBTQA+SB communities to support breaking down the barriers we often face in accessing services and to ensure future generations don't need to experience the same discrimination and stigma we have.
