Duncan Long

Duncan Long is a UKCP Accredited Clinical Psychotherapist specialising in compulsive ChemSex, with broader experience in addiction, shame, identity, and relationships.

Trained in Psychosynthesis Psychotherapy — an integrative approach that works with the whole person: body, feelings, mind, and a deeper sense of self — his clinical work is trauma-informed and relational. Working collaboratively with clients, he attends closely to the patterns and dynamics that keep people stuck, and creates the conditions in which genuine change becomes possible.

Drawing on his own recovery journey alongside his professional training, he understands firsthand the courage it takes to seek support and begin to change.

He works within an LGBTQ+ affirmative framework, with a particular focus on the challenges facing gay, bi, and MSM clients around identity, intimacy, and shame.

His priority is to create a space that is warm, honest, and entirely free from judgment — somewhere clients can bring their whole selves without fear, and where difficult material can be held with care and curiosity.
