Embrace your story and feel connected

LGBTQ+ counselling focused on fostering connection to yourself and your community

Welcome to Authentic Story Counselling!

My name is Rasa (she/her). I am a BACP registered Adlerian counsellor and psychotherapist offering mental health support to clients from queer community and it's allies.

I believe that true healing starts from within, therefore I am here to encourage you to be kind to yourself, to explore and challenge yourself, and live your life authentically. Through this approach I will support you at finding your tribe of people and feel connected to others and the world around you.

As someone who personally attended counselling I understand how daunting it can feel to be vulnerable to a stranger and talk about your deepest hurts and desires, especially if you have been hurt before.

To make counselling more accessible I offer flexible sessions online through Microsoft Teams for a lower cost of £40* and offer a free 30 minute consultation to help you decide whether I am the right fit for you.
