Hi, I'm Julie, and I am passionate about working with people who have experienced abuse or trauma, whether it be sexual, physical or emotional. When we experience trauma we lose part of who we truly are because of the after effects, such as anxiety, depression, panic attacks, flashbacks and dissociation (when we feel distanced from our emotions or ‘spaced out’, as if we’re living on autopilot). I love helping people rediscover who they really are by creating an environment in which they feel safe and completely accepted. I don't analyse you but with careful listening will know what we need to work on.

Hi, I'm Peter, a counsellor, mindfulness teacher and supervisor. I work exclusively online with the aim of offering affordable therapy to clients from the comfort of their own home. I combine person-centred counselling with mindfulness practices and Buddhist psychology and I specialise in working with bereavement, depression, anxiety, stress, anger, trauma, addiction and relationships. We are defined by our relationships, especially by the relationship we have with ourselves. I also supervise qualified counsellors and students as well as supporting practitioners who are working towards accreditation or an academic qualification.

I’m very much an advocate of being compassionate with ourselves, especially when having a difficult time. Yet I’ve often found this tends to be when we’re the hardest on ourselves, judging our emotional responses and questioning how well we’re coping. Although this seems to be a very human response, it can add to our levels of stress, upset and confusion. I provide a safe, non-judgemental space for you to be heard, understood and to help you make sense of whatever is going on for you. Focused support will help you gain greater clarity and self acceptance. Feeling more resourced, you can move forwards with greater ease.

I am passionate about trauma informed work and believe that it is relevant to treating many conditions, from anxiety and depression to more severe complex mental health issues. Past and current abuse and neglect can leave a lasting imprint in the mind, emotions and nervous system. My method of working addresses the complex relational patterns that form as a result of this and we will work to resolve these using trauma informed strategies and build emotional processing skills.

Change, and uncertainty are part of our lives. You may have reached a crossroads in your life and are not sure which path to take? Maybe you have an important decision to make and need some help exploring it. Perhaps you find yourself pushing people away in relationships, or feel stuck and have been putting things off? You may have a feeling of loss or have experienced loss and are unsure how to deal with it. Do you feel alone with your struggles, and in need of support and reassurance? Feeling unsure about reaching out to friends, family or colleagues is very common.

If you have a narcissistic parent, I am the right counsellor for you! Do you feel like you are living with the consequences of bad parenting? Were you treated badly or unfairly during your childhood by your parent? Do they still treat you badly even though you're an adult? Do they ever give you the silent treatment? Does all this still affect you today, and you can’t stop thinking about the way they treated you? Does this leave you feeling confused and with a low self esteem, but you don’t know what to do about it or how to get over it? If so, then you might be feeling really hurt and alone, unable to see a way out.

I am a humanistic integrative therapist with an interest in the healing and recovery of narcissistic abuse.
It can be scary making the first steps to looking for a counsellor and it also takes a lot of strength and bravery. Sometimes life events can leave us with a feeling of being stuck. This could be because of fear, anxiety, stress or underlying trauma that prevents you from finding the strength to move forward and heal. I believe by being able to learn to connect back to our feelings and our true selves, learning to listen and trust ourselves will not only help us understand who we are but also what we want and deserve which is to be loved, valued and happy.

I am keenly interested in working with individuals who are unsure about counselling but feel it will help, particularly male victims of domestic abuse, sexual abuse, divorce and narcissistic abuse.
Have you reached a point in your life or relationship when you feel stuck but think nothing will change? You stay stuck in your head, exhausted from feeling anxious, alone, and depressed. It feels as if no one understands you or how you feel or wants to listen to you. Do you need a break, but the demands of daily life leave you exhausted? Would you like to live a happier, more fulfilling life? Often, we feel nothing will change, and things will always be the same. You can shape and live the life you want.

Narcissistic Personality (NPD) Counsellors
What type of therapy is best for narcissistic personality disorder?
Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) is best treated with talk therapy, which could involve cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, schema therapy, gestalt therapy, or similar approaches. A therapist will help a patient uncover the feelings that may drive their behavior and discover how to engage with themselves and those around them with greater empathy and understanding, fewer demands, and less defensiveness, with the goal of developing a more authentic sense of self that enables healthier relationships.
How do therapists treat NPD?
By developing a strong therapeutic relationship, and continually focusing patients on relationships, community, and connection, a therapist, through talk therapy, may be able to help someone with NPD change. In sessions, a therapist will help an individual achieve relief from their current stressors, including the treatment of co-occurring conditions such as anxiety or depression. A therapist may also help an individual to recognize unhealthy coping mechanisms, learn new ways of interacting with others, and eventually become able to feel and display empathy.
Can a narcissist be cured with therapy?
Therapy can be effective. After a serious setback or great loss, someone with NPD may be forced to recognize that they are not immune to life’s challenges. That can spur feelings of melancholy and depression that lead them to seek professional help. Once an individual decides to seek help, they have already taken a step that the majority of those with NPD never will. Still, people with NPD often quit therapy as they naturally resist feeling vulnerable, being challenged, or admitting to flaws.
How can you get narcissistic personality disorder treatment for someone?
It is notoriously difficult to convince someone with NPD to seek help. With their feelings of superiority, they may be unlikely to recognize or acknowledge that they have a problem, or that their problem is narcissism. Sometimes, they are aware that they are arrogant and that others resent them but they don’t see it as a problem because they are convinced of their superiority. People with NPD have trouble maintaining relationships, but family members and others who do feel close to them, and whose presence they value, may be able to encourage them to seek therapy.
