Counselling in Southville, Bristol
Counselling is a safe space where you can talk about problems and process difficult emotions without shame or judgement. We often feel that we should be able to deal with our problems without others help. But it is often through sharing and opening up to others, that we can find the way to heal ourselves. Trauma, mental or emotional problems, disconnect us from ourselves and others. Sharing our pain and our story (in a relationship where it is held safely) can allow us to value, respect and have compassion for all parts of ourselves. This re-integration unblocks our creative/healing potential and our sense of purpose and meaning.

It’s such a brave step coming to counselling, I provide a safe, non-judgmental space for you to explore anything you feel comfortable sharing.

Unfortunately, I’m not able to fix, however, in attending therapy I hope to provide some time where you can focus on what you need. I regularly attend CPD training to ensure my knowledge is kept up to d

*I currently don't have any evening availability* My name is Charlotte, I can offer you a warm and supportive space to tackle those issues that you feel unable to explore anywhere else. If you find that unhelpful patterns are negatively affecting your life, I can help you by recognising them, and replace negative coping strategies with positive ones.

We can also use the sessions to pause and take time out of your week to just Be, explore who you are and foster a stronger sense of Self.

Sometimes difficulties can have a major impact on our well-being, relationships or work. Maybe friends and family can offer some support but we may also choose to see a qualified and experienced practitioner, who can provide a safe space in which to work with whatever is going on for us. I have a wide range of experience, including working in the NHS, at university as Associate Lecturer (14 years) and in a GP practice as a Lead Therapist and Supervisor, delivering Relational Integrative Therapy. I draw on Psychodynamic and Person-Centred approaches, relational CBT and CFT (Compassion-Focussed Therapy).

I have trained with the Karuna Institute in mindfulness-based psychotherapy, drawing from western and buddhist psychology. Working together with kindness, we might aim for a better understanding of what is happening and the underlying causes.

I provide Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, and Relational Group-Analytic Therapy. Working together, we create trust and rapport to understand and address unresolved life events and dilemmas. We recognise the complexities of relating to self and others, engaging dreams, the imagination and communication to become receptive to deeper, lasting change. By working individually with an experienced clinician, or, through sharing honest communication in a supportive, facilitated group, you can develop increased agency, greater self-worth and resilience, courage to discern a new life-direction, and, the confidence to explore relationships.
