Mr Gino Cosme
Psychotherapist
“Gino Cosme is a BACP and HPCSA registered psychotherapist working exclusively with gay men. Not a general practice that also welcomes gay clients. Gay male psychology is the entire territory. Ten years of clinical practice have shown a consistent pattern: mainstream therapy frameworks, even well-intentioned ones, routinely miss what gay men actually carry. Gino built a practice from the ground up around that reality. Sessions are available online to clients in the UK, Ireland, select European countries, and South Africa.”
