GSRD Group Supervision

A deliberate move toward inclusion, affirmation and community within a therapeutic context.

“If you’re always trying to be normal you will never know how amazing you can be”

Maya Angelou

This is a supervision group for therapists who have GSRD identities or experiences. GSRD stands for Gender, Sexual and Relationship Style Diversity. This group welcomes therapists with a wide range of gender identities, sexualities and relationship styles. Many LGBTQIA+ therapists find that counselling training, CPD and mainstream therapeutic models can leave them feeling isolated or unheard. This supervision group is a deliberate move toward inclusion, affirmation and community within a therapeutic context.

"In queer group therapy I can skip a few steps as I don’t have to explain my struggle - other people just get it, they understand the complexities which is such a relief"

group member
"There is such value in a GSRD group where you have five other people not shaming you for something but just accepting and encouraging you. That group acceptance is so healing."

group member
"I feel a sense of belonging in a queer space. There is a community of other diverse people who get what it is like to be queer, whether that is sexually or gender-wise or polyamorous"

Who this is for…

This three-hour monthly supervision group is open to all therapists (trainee or qualified) who want the support, connection and depth that comes from working alongside other GSRD-aware practitioners. The focus is broad and responsive, with diversity in all its forms valued and celebrated. Client material does not need to be GSRD specific; all themes are welcome.

The groups meet for 3 hours monthly in person in Dalston.
