Identity Space
LGBTQIA+ Support, guidance, and counselling for anyone who is looking for a space to explore their gender, identity expression, sexuality and/or relationship diversity. We understand that having an inclusive and non-judgemental service that is individual to your needs is beneficial and affirming.
The therapists and mentors who work within this team have all either had specific training and/or have lived personal experiences of the issues that may arise for someone who is exploring their identity or personal expression. We base the fee paid upon what your personal circumstances are, taking into account if we have any funding available to support you to access the support you need. If your financial situation is not a concern or restriction to you being able to access support, a percentage of what you pay will go back into our project, making more help available to those who can not afford therapeutic LGBTQIA+ support without the help of additional funding.
​
We are able to work with and support adults, young people, and children aged 8 years and above. Play and talk sessions are available for younger children, along with family support and guidance.
"Having a regular space to be my self has really helped me work out who I am. I feel more confident in my presentation now, and I care less about what others think!"

I did the creative mentoring with Identity Space, I loved how free this made me feel. I have body dysphoria and having these sessions meant that for the time I was there I didnt think about it, I am on a long waiting list for a gender clinic so this has given me some head space away from how difficult things feel" GM

I am still working things out, even though my time with Identity Space has finished now, I feel able to think more clearly about myself and how I fit into the world! BH age 15, year 10
