I work with a variety of presenting issues including anxiety, self harm, depression, BPD, ASD, ADHD, suicide ideation and others so please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions.
Do you want to feel happier? Do you suffer with anxiety, depression, feeling sad or low self esteem? Maybe you feel stuck and have lost yourself? Sometimes there is a specific reason and we know what is making us feel that way, other times it appears there is no reason at all. Counselling can help unpick whats going on, identify those thoughts and for it to feel less overwhelming in a safe and non judgmental way.

I have experience of working with neurodiversity, autism and ADHD.
Counselling, in my view, is a special journey into your own world, a journey to explore and understand anything that might be causing you insecurity or distress. I'm here to stand by your side throughout this journey. While I won't give you advice, I can offer a safe, non-judgmental space for you to explore any unhelpful patterns you might be experiencing. Whether you're dealing with emotional disturbance, current burdens, or recurring issues from your past, I'm here to listen and help you find your own way.

I have a keen interest in working with individuals who are seeking self-awareness. Art Therapy allows expression that is not based on spoken language only. You don't need any artistic skills or any previous experience in creative expression. I hope for clients to learn their own skills and tools to heal and transform and be their best possible self. I know how hard life can be due to situations from past and present that affect us.

Hello, I work with a range of issues, including anxiety and depression. Being heard and accepted for being who you truly are, can feel incredibly empowering. When this is taken away, our thoughts can trigger unhelpful behaviours, increasing low mood. Which in turn can play havoc with our emotions. When we feel lonely and isolated, overwhelming feelings can flood our thoughts and fears. I can offer you a safe, warm, and confidential space to explore any issues that may contribute towards your anxiety and depression. I am here to listen to you in an non-judgemental way, and to support you with any changes you wish to make.

Hi I'm Pauline, Sometimes life just feels to difficult or painful, you feel heavy hearted, deflated, depressed, anxious, lost, the light at the end of the tunnel is just not there to see and you don’t know how to make changes to feel different. In my experience having someone to talk to who listens, understands, and supports you, is the start to making the changes needed for you to feel different. To work on not only see the light at the end of the dark tunnel, but actually reach it and walk into it.

Hello, I'm Abbie. I'm an accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapist and Dramatherapist. You may be looking to discover healthier coping mechanisms and gain deeper insights into yourself, yet feel unsure how to elicit change or better understand your difficulties. CBT can help you to explore thoughts, feelings and behaviours that cause distress in the present day. If it feels right for you, creative mediums can further support. This may simply look like using metaphor to help you find the words you are trying to express or being curious about the roles you play in your every-day life.

ADHD Counsellors

When should I seek treatment for ADHD?

You should seek treatment for ADHD if you consistently have difficulty with attention, hyperactivity, or impulsivity that interferes with your daily life. Symptoms of ADHD include the inability to sustain attention during tasks, difficulty organizing tasks and activities, being easily distracted, frequent fidgeting or squirming, and talking or interrupting excessively. If these symptoms interfere with your career, academics, or relationships—for example, consistently failing to complete professional projects on time—you should seek an evaluation for ADHD.

How does treatment for ADHD work?

Effective treatment for ADHD often consists of medication, behavioural therapy, and lifestyle changes. Stimulant medications such as Adderall and Ritalin work by altering levels of neurotransmitters in the brain; higher levels of dopamine and norepinephrine are known to improve attention and focus. Therapy works by helping people with ADHD understand the condition, discuss their areas of difficulty, and develop behavioral strategies to manage their symptoms. In some cases, modifying one’s diet and exercise can also help improve symptoms.

How long does treatment for ADHD take?

It’s tough to give an exact time frame because everyone varies. In terms of medications, stimulants begin to work very soon after you take them, generally within the hour. It may take time to identify the right medication and dosage, but the medication itself is fast-acting. In terms of therapy, it takes time to develop skills and put them into practice, but you will likely see improvements within a few weeks or months.
