Counsellor and Trainee sexologistConnor Reid
They / heConnor is a qualified Counsellor undertaking their student placement under supervision from Clinic Director Christine Rafe
Connor is a Sexology student with a background in peer work and counselling.
Connor draws on his experiences being queer and trans to foster an environment that is as safe and comfortable as possible for all folk, regardless of identity, allowing them space to explore themselves fully. Connor draws on his experience as a peer worker to break down barriers to counselling by keeping a more conversational tone and focusing on building a strong connection with an understanding that some may be hesitant to speak about intimate matters right away.
With previous qualifications in Psychology and Counselling, Connor is currently completing their Masters in Psychosexual Therapy to build on his skills and experience in sex therapy, as someone who has always been guided by sex positivity. He sees the intersexction between sexuality and identity and encourages people to embrace themselves and supports them in breaking down the stigma of a society that doesn't talk about sex.

Connor's approach draws on unconditional acceptance so you feel comfortable being you.
Connor aims for sessions to be comfortable, and feel like an open and honest conversation with someone who takes the time to understand you. They are guided by trauma informed practice and acceptance with a sprinkle of queer and feminist theory, believing everyone has a right to their sexuality, and recognising you as the expert on your life.
Finding himself nestled in alternative subcultures, Connor values the unique ways that someone may express themselves and draws on the idea that you don't need to conform to the status quo to find your happiness and authenticity.
Connor was raised on Dharawal country and currently resides and studies on Dharug country.
