About Peter
Peter Coffey is a non-binary counsellor based in New Hampshire with six years of practice. They work in an open, accepting way with people who identify as LGBT and with those exploring gender or sexual identity. Peter focuses on helping clients who feel stuck, whether the aim is to move past a problem or to come to terms with it.
Peter listens first and helps people name what they are feeling.
Background and approach
They use client-centred therapy to keep the conversation focused on the person's experience rather than on labels or quick fixes. Peter does not diagnose or give directive advice; instead they ask questions that help a person better understand themselves. People come to Peter with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, stress, grief and anger.
They also work with ADHD, autism and relationship issues such as communication, polyamory and non-monogamous arrangements. There is additional experience supporting people around sexuality, BDSM and kink, gender dysphoria, men’s issues and isolation. Sessions are conversational and paced to each person.
Peter encourages clients to correct them when something feels off, and to set the direction of therapy together. This makes the work collaborative and responsive to individual needs. If a person has had difficult therapy experiences before, Peter states an intention to earn trust rather than assume it.
They invite people to start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then to schedule sessions that suit their situation.

Approaches Peter lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Peter will work collaboratively to find an approach that fits each person's needs and goals. They will ask about what matters most to the client and adjust the way they work as understanding grows. Finding the right method is treated as a shared process rather than a fixed prescription.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video is useful when visual connection matters, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text can fit short updates or days when typing feels preferable. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments, and let people choose how they prefer to communicate.
