Whether you're processing your identity, coming out, dealing with rejection, exploring relationships, or facing societal pressures, our LGBTQ+ therapy in West London can offer a space where all parts of you are welcomed without question.


At The Knightsbridge Practice, we are committed to providing an affirming, non-judgmental environment for individuals of all sexual orientations, gender identities, and expressions. Our approach is collaborative, inclusive, and sensitive to the intersections of culture, history, and lived experience.

LGBTQIA+ Affirmative Therapy

Whether you're seeking support around a specific issue or simply want to speak with someone who “gets it,” therapy can be a space to be fully seen and celebrated.

Common themes we support within the LGBTQIA+ community

  • Sexual orientation, gender identity, and the process of coming out

  • Navigating family rejection, secrecy, or lack of support

  • Internalised shame, self-doubt, or imposter syndrome

  • Relationship challenges within or outside LGBTQ+ partnerships

  • Transitions in identity, presentation, or expression

  • Intersectionality and the impact of multiple marginalised identities

  • Grief, loss, and trauma related to exclusion or discrimination

  • Desire for a space that doesn’t require explanation or justification

How therapy can help

Affirmative therapy is not just about being “inclusive” - it’s about being actively supportive, aware, and attuned to the specific experiences and histories that shape LGBTQIA+ lives. In our work together, we may:

 

  • Explore identity with curiosity and respect, at your own pace

  • Work through the effects of stigma, rejection, or past trauma

  • Strengthen self-worth, belonging, and self-acceptance

  • Support relationship dynamics, chosen family, and community

  • Develop tools for navigating stress, anxiety, and emotional fatigue

  • Offer a stable, reflective space, free from assumptions or bias

A flexible, personalised approach to therapy

Many clients benefit from various types of therapy.

 

For example, a session might incorporate the reflective depth of psychodynamic therapy, the practical tools of CBT, and the self-kindness of CFT - all held within a relational, person-centred frame.

 

Your therapist will collaborate with you to shape a path that feels relevant, respectful, and effective.
