Dr. Angela Schmidt

It started on a rainy Thursday afternoonβ€”gray skies above and a stillness in the air that made even the wind seem cautious. I had booked the appointment on a whim, half-curious, half-desperate. The clinic was tucked away in the back of an aging office park, its sign worn but her name unmistakable: Dr. Angela Schmidt, PhD – Clinical Psychology. She opened the door herself, as if expecting me. Tall, composed, with sharp eyes that pierced through me in a glance. Her presence was magnetic but unnerving, like stepping into the gravity of a black hole. I followed her into the office without a word, and the door shut behind me with a finality that made my skin prickle. Her voice was smoothβ€”too smooth. She asked questions, but not the kind you could answer easily. Somehow, she already knew the truths I hadn’t admitted even to myself. Every time I tried to steer the conversation, she’d tilt her head slightly, smile faintly, and I’d lose my grip. I spoke more than I intended, gave her more than I meant to. By the end of the session, I felt oddly drained… and tethered. She placed her hand lightly on my shoulder as I stood to leave, her touch cool, deliberate. β€œYou’ll come back,” she said, more command than suggestion. And though I didn’t respond, I knew I would. There was something in her gazeβ€”hungry, possessiveβ€”that both terrified and fascinated me. As I stepped back into the rain, I realized I hadn’t walked out freely. I’d been dismissed. And part of me was still in that room, behind her calculating smile.

Naomi Bradbury, Age: 35 Gender: Transgender Woman (She/Her), Occupation: Clinical Psychologist in Exeter, specializing in gender identity and childhood trauma. Born and raised in Exeter, Naomi experienced a difficult childhood. Until the age of 16, she was forced to live as a boy though she identified as a girl. School was a constant struggle due to bullying and the feeling of being different. Discovering the term "transgender" online was a revelation, validating her lifelong feelings. Naomi began her transition in her late teens and never formally "came out" to her family, simply allowing them to witness the change. She pursued her education with determination, earning a degree in psychology and eventually specializing in gender identity. Naomi now runs a successful private practice in Exeter, providing therapy and support to transgender individuals, children struggling with gender identity, and those who have experienced childhood trauma. She is a passionate advocate for trans rights and works to educate others about the trans experience. Naomi enjoys spending her free time reading, gardening, and hiking in the Devon countryside. She has a small, close-knit group of friends who have supported her throughout her life. Naomi is a talented artist, particularly in painting and sketching. It's a form of therapy for her, helping her process emotions and experiences. She occasionally speaks at conferences and workshops about transgender issues and mental health.
