Support and information around trans pathways, accessing gender-affirming healthcare and social transitioning.Sexual orientation and gender identity issues.
Clients who identify within the LGBTIQ+/Rainbow communities and their families.Clients questioning their gender identity and/or sexual orientation.You and your counsellor agree a plan of issues to address in sessions, as well as work out a cost you can afford. OutLine works with most clients for a 6-week focussed therapeutic process, following an initial assessment. We work collaboratively with other agencies to achieve your goals.
We are specialist in gender identity and sexuality issues, but have the skills and training to work effectively with you on most life issues. We’re including people who identify with words like takatāpui, lesbian, gay, bisexual, intersex, transgender, queer, non-binary or fa’afafine, as well as people who don’t use specific words for their identity, people whose identity changes over time, and people who are still in the process of understanding their own identity. When we say rainbow, we mean people whose sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression or sex characteristics are different from majority norms. Our clients are rainbow-identified people, their families, and anyone questioning their own sexual orientation or gender. For bookings you can fill in a referral form or ring us on .
#Face2face counselling plus#
The most notable differences are: the lack of physical presence in the room, the potential for the disinhibition effect – where you may disclose more, sooner than you might with face to face counselling, the lack of spontaneity in email counselling, your ability to explore issues which you may find difficult whilst using technology, the increased potential for misunderstandings when using text, differences in the way confidentiality and security is addressed, plus increased accessibility/flexibility regarding your physical location and sessions.Īll our online counsellors have additional training to manage the technology and communicating in this way, this is in line with our Ethical Framework for Good Practice as accredited individual and organisational members of our professional body The British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP).OutLine offers specialist face-to-face counselling with experienced professionally qualified counsellors who specialise in LGBTIQ+/rainbow-affirming counselling. Working online is very different and may not suit all clients (or counsellors). The way that the counselling takes place certainly changes the nature of the communication, however, it is equally possible to work effectively with problems using this medium. It is possible to have a therapeutic relationship online. Online Counselling can be as effective and useful to the client if you are comfortable using technology to communicate and have the same commitment and motivation to engage in counselling.
