Frequently Asked Questions

---

CTRL+K is a modern therapy practice designed for people who don’t always feel at home in traditional therapy settings. We blend professional counselling with creativity, honesty, and alt-culture energy — welcoming everyone, especially those who feel “othered” by typical approaches. 

Our approach is primarily person-centred and existential — rooted in empathy, authenticity, and meaningful connection. We also integrate techniques from other models to tailor therapy to your needs. 

Anyone - and we mean that!

Whether you’re navigating mental health challenges, identity questions, life transitions, or just looking to reconnect with yourself — you’re welcome here. CTRL+K wants to feel welcoming to people from neurodivergent, queer, alt, and creative communities. 

No judgment. Just a conversation. We'll talk about what’s brought you here and what you’d like support with — at your pace. 

Yes. Everything you share in therapy is confidential, with only a few legal exceptions (e.g. risk of serious harm). We’ll go through this clearly before we begin.

Yes — online sessions are available for clients across the Worldwide. We use secure platforms and create a private, focused space no matter the format. 

Absolutely. Whether you want a one-off space to talk something through, or longer-term support, we can work with whatever fits your life right now. 

Yes! We also run workshops and psycho-educational sessions on themes like modern masculinity, neurodivergence, vulnerability, identity and inclusion — with the same authentic and creative style that defines CTRL+K. 

We know that not every therapeutic experience feels safe or helpful — and that can make trying again feel daunting. At CTRL+K, you won’t be pathologised, rushed, or judged. We’ll move at your pace, and honour your past experiences, good or bad. 

Not at all. It’s totally normal to feel unsure, overwhelmed, or even blank at first. You don’t need to have a plan. We’ll figure it out together. 

Nope. You’re in control of what you share, when you share it, and how. This isn’t a space where you’re pushed — it’s a space where you’re met. 

We aim to meet people with curiosity, respect and cultural humility — not assumptions. You don’t have to educate us on your existence. And if we ever get something wrong, we welcome honest conversation and feedback. 

Definitely. CTRL+K was built with the understanding that people’s brains, lives, and identities don’t all look the same — and shouldn't have to. Whether you’re neurodivergent, queer, chronically ill, tattooed, or just feel like you’ve never quite fit in — this space is for you. 

Absolutely. If you’re a community group, educator, workplace, or fellow creative doing important work — especially in areas like identity, inclusion, masculinity, or neurodivergence — we’d love to hear from you. 

We try to keep therapy as accessible as possible. If cost is a barrier, let’s talk — we can't promise but we may be able to help or signpost alternative options.

For us, it’s a metaphor for connection — with ourselves, with others, with something meaningful. Therapy is often the link between where we are and where we want to be.
