Colm Connaughton

Hi, I'm Colm. I’m from Ireland and have been living in the UK for the past nine years. I originally trained as a designer/ animator and now have chosen to retrain as an Integrative Humanistic Counsellor. As a gay man, I bring both personal and professional understanding to identity, relationships, and the impact of queer negativity in society. I am a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and work within their ethical framework.

I aim to support you in exploring whatever feels most important to you. This may include anxiety, stress, identity, self-esteem issues, sexuality and gender, relationships, or the effects of oppression and social pressures.

In our counselling sessions, you can expect a non-judgmental, confidential, and understanding space where you can safely explore your thoughts, feelings, and emotions. I work in an anti-oppressive way, aiming to create an environment where you feel respected, supported and empowered.

If you think that I might be the right counsellor for you, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
