Ken | Individual Counselling - Relationship Counselling

Counselling Burnley

Hi I am Ken.   (He/Him)

I support Families/Groups, Couples, Individuals and Children 12+ 

GSRD: Each Relationship is unique, and I believe it is your relationship done your way! Whether it be Monogamous, Consensual Non-Monogamy, Throupling, Polyamory or any other diverse relationship I can support you to explore your options and boundaries working through other things such as jealousy and ‘rule breaking’ and general worries and concerns about your relationships.

LGBTQIA+ Clients: I have a keen interest in and focus on working with Trans and non-binary clients and offer a safe space to members of this community. I understand the Transition process, fears, worries and other issues such as body dysmorphia that often come with being Trans.

I have supported individuals and various couples' dynamics within the LGBTQIA+ community with issues including self-identity; I understand the different pronouns, terminology, and subsections that people associate with. Issues around coming out to family and friends; and social stigma.

In my couples work I have supported clients with communication issues, relationship breakdown and also negotiating diverse relationship needs, and agreed boundaries within your relationships recognising each relationship is different with different wants, needs and rules. 

I can also support you with issues not connected to your LGBTQIA+ Status.

Bereavement and Suicide:   I understand the complexities of loss and change when someone loses a loved one. Understanding, often it can be hard imagining a future without them. Working together, I will support you to a state of living your 'new normal'. I also understand those complex unanswered questions you may have after someone has taken their own life. Could I have stopped it? Why did this happen? We can work through these together.

Men's Mental Health including Domestic Violence:  I recognise that for men to reach out and express how they feel is often extremely hard, stigma, worry of being judged and feeling not 'like a man' are regular issues that I support with. I especially support male victims of Domestic Violence who may feel isolated or not believed.  Supporting you to understand it is not your fault.

Other Issues: I also support clients presenting with many varied different issues and concerns.
