Will Hardy
Will is a registered integrative LGBTQ+ counsellor working with adults / individuals over the age of 18.
Hello! I am a BACP registered integrative counsellor based in London. I provide LGBTQ+ therapy and counselling for those who identify as gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, non-binary, queer, questioning, polyamorous, kink, ace etc. I offer short or long term individual therapy for adults and my work. I work primarily with individuals within the LGBTQ+ community, however, this is not exclusively.
I am trained within an integrative approach to counselling. This means I combine different approaches to create a therapy experience that is queer and sex positive, kink-affirming, collaborative, fluid and practiced with an open mindset. My theoretical and practical approaches include humanistic, psychodynamic, relational, phenomenological, existential and pluralistic.
Essentially, in a jargon free description, I focus on you and the experiences you’ve had that have brought you to therapy. Depending on what you wish to talk about, we may explore your earlier childhood experiences, what’s happening now for you and your goals and aspirations. My approach encapsulates the essence of your here and now experiences which may involve your past, your present and your future self.
I describe my practice and our therapeutic work as collaborative, fluid and adaptable depending on what comes up within our sessions. Ultimately, you’re the expert of your life and I see my role as offering my therapeutic skills, techniques and perspectives to help you gain clarity into your experiences and alleviate any distress you may be feeling. We can explore any areas of your life that you wish to discuss further. These may include experiences of anxiety, relationships, mental health, neurodiversity, trauma, family, life decisions, LGBTQ+ identity and more.
