Mental Health Therapies

Queer therapy from therapists who understand being queer. 

Our psychotherapists and counsellors have both lived experience of existing within the LGTBQIA+ community and additional training and qualifications to best support our community’s mental health. We understand the varied and unique challenges members of our community face as they navigate their lives as part of a marginalised population. 

We offer 1:1 counselling and psychotherapy, both online and face to face. We also offer group therapy sessions and counsellor-led support groups. We will also be offering mental health workshops and courses which will teach you the skills needed to support your own mental health in the future.

Every therapist working with Be/Here has completed additional specialist LGBTQIA+ training beyond their core qualifications.

 

We understand:

  • Minority stress

  • Family estrangement

  • Identity exploration

  • Intersectionality

  • Systemic barriers

Your identity is not the problem.


The systems around you often are.

And we hold that truth in the room.

Being “affirming” isn’t enough.

This is more than therapy.

A place to land.

Whether you are:

  • Questioning your identity

  • Feeling burnt out from minority stress

  • Navigating trauma

  • Newly out

  • Long out but still carrying things

  • Or simply tired of doing this alone

You are welcome here.

There is no “right” way to arrive.
There is no threshold you need to meet.
There is no version of you that is “too much.”

Everyone deserves care that sees them fully.
