About me
Welcome to Budding Therapy. My name is Becki (They/She) and I am a Person-Centred Therapist working online.
I work in a very relational manner – this means that whilst we work on supporting you, you will get to know me reasonably well. It’s a big ask to expect people to be vulnerable with their therapist, and I am comfortable in being vulnerable with clients. It’s the thing I valued the most in my own personal therapy. I will offer you empathy and warmth, and hope to provide you with a positive relationship that encourages therapeutic change.
What are my specialisms?
Disability & Chronic Illness
- Mental Health, Neurodiversity and Physical Health
- Navigating the Welfare System
- Support through the diagnosis process
- Relationships
- Impact on work/education
- Inclusion
- Ableism
I can and will also work with family members/carers.
Gender, Sexuality and Relationship Diversity
- Exploring sexuality
- Exploring gender diversity
- Monogamy and Ethical Non-Monogamy
- Impact on relationships
- Coming Out
- Kink & BDSM
You will find several articles about my experiences with both disability and LGBTQIA issues throughout my website. You can also follow my Facebook, X and Instagram.
Geek Culture
I’m a big fan of the therapeutic benefits of geek culture – from relating to TV/movie characters and memes to using things such as TTRPGs and LARPs in the therapy room.
