Positive Psychology Counselling in Abingdon

I am a licenced clinical psychologist and member of the HCPC in the UK and the Australian Clinical Psychology Association (ACPA) and having trained as a clinical psychologist at the Wright Institute in Berkeley and Yale University. I have been providing therapy to male and female clients for over 20 years and have accumulated a wealth of experience in working with adults with complex presentations. I have an expertise in working with depression, anxiety, trauma, stress, relationships, workplace issues and substance use.

I am a transformational life and career coach: I change lives, and I am passionate about what I do. Having radically transformed my own life, both professional and personal, I am now dedicated to working with others to help them do the same. You can have the life you dream of. Are you ready to commit to making a significant change in your life? Do you want to identify your inner strengths and weaknesses and learn how to use these to love the life you have been blessed with? If these sound familiar then coaching with me may be the answer you have been looking for.

We offer intensive residential treatment with 24-hour nursing and medical care alongside psychological, psychotherapeutic and psychiatric services all within a caring and stylish homely environment.

I work with people who want to take time to understand themselves and build skills that will support them for a lifetime. In therapy sessions, we’ll work together to understand current problems and how they came about, and find useful tools you can use long-term to solve them. I specialize in anxiety/worry, low mood, self-esteem, relationship issues, OCD, emotional dysregulation, and recovering from trauma. I love helping clients discover how their emotions work and build confidence in themselves and their relationships, to create more fulfilling and balanced lives.

Hello; a warm welcome to my profile. Perhaps you are trying to change something in your life; perhaps you are wanting to give up old habits or create new ones. Maybe you are struggling with something, or perhaps you just want to take a look at your life and assess or reassess it. Together we can work out a way forward; by looking at and following your cues, which you may or may not be aware of right now, we can map a path that feels right for you. I truly believe that everyone carries their own answers within them; we just need to find out what they are!

Hello! If you need to talk, I can help! I am a friendly, calm, and caring mother of two. I enjoy cooking, arts, and dance and I enjoy helping in community-building activities.

Sometimes we get stuck - in our sport and our lives. Maybe you are struggling with self esteem or performance anxiety, not sure what direction to take your career, injured or lacking motivation, facing a setback or caught up in difficult thoughts and feelings that stop you from performing to your best. Whether you are just starting out in life or an elite performer wanting to achieve the last 1%, you can learn practical and effective ways to get unstuck.

Trauma-focused therapy helps to address the underlying traumatic memories and triggers that contribute to anxiety. CBT, on the other hand, equips individuals with practical techniques to identify and challenge negative thought patterns. However, a combination of trauma-focused therapy and cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) can offer effective strategies for managing anxiety and reclaiming a sense of calm. I provide a safe and supportive environment for processing and healing trauma, and all anxiety-based issues. I offer therapy sessions over the phone and video link.

I am a psychotherapist, hypnotherapist, registered nutritionist and ex-lawyer that helps individuals to re-build their relationship with food and their body. Whether you are struggling with an eating disorder like binge eating disorder or ARFID or just want to get healthy, I can help you to get to the root cause of your issues around food and help you to make lasting changes. I understand how challenging it can be to struggle with your relationship with food. Nobody should have to spend their life worrying about food or their weight, obsessing over food choices, feeling guilty for eating or feeling out of control around food.
