Cailin Edwards
Welcome
There is no single reason for exploring and attending therapy. Whatever your motivation, I understand that seeking counselling and therapy may be a risky leap into the unknown for you. Your current path presents choices you are uncertain about. I offer a safe, non-judgmental, trusting, and empathetic space for you to explore, which may allow you to identify and enable your choices.
My name is Cailin and I am a Person-Centred Psychotherapist.
When a change or crisis happens in your life, whether relational, gender identity or a desire to be yourself, therapy may offer you the space and possibilities to explore in-depth. It may enable you to make ‘felt’ choices that are right for you and disentangle confusing areas in your life.
I prize and recognise that you are the best authority for your choices and decisions, and I will be with you while you explore what is best for you, Non-Judgementally and at your pace and direction.
I have in-depth experience counselling in gender and queer capacities. I have a special interest in working with the transgendered community and queer women
I have also worked in the following areas:
- LGBTQIA
- Gender Identity
- Queerness
- Relationships
- Coercive relationships
- Family trauma
- Sexual trauma
- Depression
- Suicidal Ideation
- Loss and bereavement
- Addiction
- Sexual abuse
- Mental distress…
I am qualified and registered with the BACP. I trained for a year at the Minster Institute in Integrative Psychotherapy and completed my master’s in Person-Centred Therapy at the Metanoia Institute with a ‘heuristic inquiry’ research paper.
My clinical practice has engaged me in volunteering for Childline NSPCC for two years, counselling young persons. I have spent three years as an advanced trainee volunteering with London Friend and slightly less time at ELOP counselling LGBTQIA clients, which has offered me the opportunity to meaningfully engage with the community that I feel incredibly passionate and engaged with.
As part of my ongoing professional development, I actively engage with the LGBTQIA+ community in queer peers, encounter groups and womyn feminist groups.
