Welcome

Rae Yates – LGBTQIA+ / GSRD Person-Centred Counselling, Supervision and Training in Worthing, Sussex, and Online


I’m Rae (Rachel), a LGBTQIA+ / GSRD Person-Centred Counsellor, Therapist and Supervisor. I am Queer, Non-Binary, Autistic/ADHD, and use They/Them pronouns. 

I am an Advanced Accredited ‘Gender, Sexuality and Relationship Diversities’ Therapist (Pink Therapy), and an Accredited Professional Member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS).

I offer long or short term, individual counselling and supervision in Worthing, West Sussex, and Online.

I work with people with all kinds of issues and concerns and in differing levels of distress. I work with individual adults (18+) who are gay, bisexual, straight, asexual, queer, trans, non-binary, gender non-conforming, cis, agender, intersex, or in some way questioning and trying to understand issues around their sexuality or gender. I am committed to providing an inclusive, welcoming, safe and confidential space.

I also work with people who may find it more difficult to access counselling and therapy including people who:

  • experience neurodivergence, such as ASD or ADHD
  • hear voices
  • have beliefs and experiences that others find unusual
  • are in emotional or psychological crisis
  • are in consensual non-monogamous or polyam+ relationships
  • are diagnosed with cPTSD, schizophrenia, bi-polar, or a personality disorder

I work from a non-pathologising understanding of mental health issues and emotional distress.

If you are finding life really difficult right now, or just have some feelings and worries you would like to talk through, please contact me to arrange a free initial phone/Zoom call to talk through any questions about coming to counselling, or to book a first appointment.
