Plans to expand offices into Bournemouth & Poole, Dorset, temporarily delayed.A Secure, online Video Counselling Service using the technology in your pocket...Dorset LGBT Relationship Support
The Plan
I began to look at Bournemouth as a location to expand LGBT Couple Counselling further into Dorset.
I came across The Consulting Centre in Branksome, Poole.
Plans to expand my face-to-face practice further into Bournemouth, Christchurch & Poole – west of England – are on hold (three guesses…!). However, my therapy service for LGBTQ+ Couples & Groups in Bournemouth/Poole, Dorset, has been available since 2010 over Zoom, Teams, WhatsApp, Google Meet or (the now defunct) Skype.
I’ll review expansion plans for counselling offices centred around the needs of gay, lesbian, bisexual and asexual intimate relationships in the Dorset area around 2023 onwards.

You don’t even need to leave home to access a fully qualified counsellor who specialists in counselling for your particular form of relationship.
Finding Bournemouth Counselling Practice
Although plans are on hold to expand LGBT Couple Counselling into Poole & Dorset, I was looking at The Consulting Centre (348 Poole Rd, Branksome, Poole BH12 1AW) as a possible location.
The Consulting Centre is an upmarket, discreet and professional therapy centre. I was happy with their high-quality consulting rooms and as an independent counsellor/psychotherapist they suited by high standards for discretion and confidentiality.
We’re not there yet!
Until we move forward again to safely open in Bournemouth or Pool, counselling for LGBT Couples and small groups continues to be available in Hampshire via my Zoom, Teams, WhatsApp, Google Meet or (the now defunct) Skype Internet Video services.
