We are the UK’s largest
independent therapy organisation working with gender and sexual diversity
clients. Through our Directory of Pink Therapists (on this website), we are a
conduit between LGBTQIA+ clients seeking therapy and qualified and experienced
therapists in private practice who adopt a sexuality and gender affirmative
stance to their work. All the therapists listed on this site are self-employed
and set their own fees, work hours, etc.
We have pioneered the term
Gender, Sex and Relationship Diversity (GSRD) Therapy.
Pink Therapy was set up in 1999 by Dominic Davies, who
remains the CEO. Dominic has been internationally recognised as one of 50
Gender and Sexual Health Revolutionaries.
We also have a team of highly experienced Clinical
Associates appointed because of their significant contribution to the field,
and an accreditation scheme to help clients choose therapists who have
undertaken further training in GSRD Therapy.
If you can’t find a therapist in your area, it could mean
they’ve not heard of our directory yet, or they may list themselves in other
online directories. We’d encourage you to work with someone who has undertaken
additional training as most courses do not include working with LGBTQIA+
clients very much. It might be wiser to work online with someone well-trained
and experienced rather than in person with a local therapist who has had little
specific training.
We are committed to raising the standard of therapy
available to our communities and run an online, international Diploma and
Advanced Diploma programme for therapists who want to specialise in this area.
We also offer shorter, self-study courses for therapists wishing to brush up
their knowledge in certain areas. Check out our Training website for more on
all of this pinktherapy.org.
