Weight-neutral counselling

Another passion of mine is counselling people who, like me, are overweight. Or as I prefer to say, fat.

Fat people face challenges that thin people don't. In the UK, thinness is prized. Fat stigma is real,

and larger people are judged as lazy, greedy and immoral, amongst other things.

Many people, including counsellors, don't understand the discrimination that fat people face on a daily basis.

They also expect anyone living in a larger body to be unhappy with their size, and to be pursuing weight loss.

This can make having counselling confusing and upsetting, and more difficult than it needs to be.

I specialise in counselling larger people regardless of why they want counselling.

I have lived experience of at least some of the difficulties you face.

I'm not biased against you. And I don't assume I know what's right for you.
