I am a white, gender/queer, disabled person-centred counsellor, lecturer and researcher. In my private practice and my research I specialise in gender and sexuality and I’ve just finished my PhD looking at gender and sexuality in English sex education (and now i have some life back!). In my free time I read - a lot - and I play violin in my local orchestra. I love the person-centred approach and find myself frustrated often by the (external) belief that the PCA is the ‘easiest’ of approaches, when for me it’s one of the most complex. It’s a hill I’m prepared to die on… (In seriousness; I love having those conversations with people and learning about others’ opinions and how they relate to mine). I believe in community and for me, tPCA is one way of achieving that and I would like to be part of helping that grow.
