Female Counselling in Guildford, ENG

Counselling is my passion and I look to provide a safe, private space for you to be heard when no one else is listening.

Life can present us with many struggles, ranging from those arising from specific circumstances or existential concerns, through to more complex and long-standing difficulties. I have experience of working with many different concerns, including anxiety, depression, high levels of shame and self-criticism, difficulties in relationships, low self-esteem, self harm and/or suicidal thoughts, sexual abuse, and difficult family dynamics/early experiences (including growing up with parents who may have been very loving, but struggled to recognise and attune to your emotional needs).

I can help with various difficulties such as anxiety, depression, self-harm, addictions, low self-esteem, ADHD, narcissistic abuse, panic attacks, OCD, trauma, bereavement, PTSD, anger management, social anxiety, relationship issues, sexuality, disordered eating, body image, body appreciation, parenthood, abortion, career change, lack of motivation and many others. As an integrative therapist I use various therapeutic techniques such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Mindfulness-Based Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT),

Welcome, I’m Andrea, a counsellor based in Guildford and Camberley. I have worked for over 17 years supporting people with mental wellbeing. I've helped those who have found their mental health has suffered due to a variety of reasons. I find the counselling relationship is like no other. It offers a safe and non-judgmental space to explore thoughts and feelings without fear of criticism or misunderstanding whilst valuing your individual experiences. I believe a therapeutic relationship that’s based on trust, respect, and openness will facilitate change.

Hi and a very warm welcome. I'm Maria, a Humanistic Counsellor offering evening online, and telephone sessions for 16+ and Adults. Challenges you have in your life may sometimes feel overwhelming and you may even find yourself feeling stuck. These challenges, for example, might be with anxiety, depression, grief, you may have been a victim of abuse, you might struggle with confidence or lack self esteem? Whatever your challenge or struggle, I want to help you find peace within yourself, help you feel less overwhelmed and more able to cope. I want to help you feel less stuck, and support you to discovering your own way forwards.

Having spent over a decade working in the health and fitness industry prior to training as a psychologist, I have a particular interest in issues relating to the body, including weight, eating disorders, body dissatisfaction, and pain. I have extensive experience working with people in larger bodies and am an advocate of health at every size and body diversity. I also have a strong interest in LGBTQ+ issues and am experienced in working with clients who struggle with a range of other difficulties including anxiety, depression, loneliness, bereavement and life transitions. I am able to support adults and young people aged sixteen +.

I am an Integrative Counsellor and Psychotherapist practising in Guildford, Haslemere, Putney, West London and Private Practice. I offer short or long term therapy and work with adults and the elderly on a one-to-one basis. I provide a safe, confidential, and non-judgemental space, in professional settings and calm surroundings, where you can find solace and privacy. I hold up-to-date Enhanced Disclosure (DBS) for working with the very vulnerable and continue to develop my skills while I undertake a further MSc in Neuroscience.

Hi. You're probably here because you are finding life tough. Life can be so hard, and it can feel even harder finding help. After years of working in Education and the NHS, I know how tricky it can be to access support. I aim to fill that gap. I work particularly with neurodivergence (ADHD, autism etc): with young people struggling + using tricky coping strategies; with parents who feel lost + overwhelmed; and with adults who are for the first time learning who they are + need help to figure that all out. I also specialise in eating disorders, self harm, body image, anxiety, OCD, trauma. Maybe I can help?

My main aim in life has and always will be to help people find peace and joy in their lives. This can be very difficult to source when life today is so challenging. Whether it is financial worries, loss of a loved one, disability, illness, family issues, bullying, work pressure, trauma, (amongst others) all can induce stress, depression and anxiety. Besides a wealth of life experience, I have a degree in Integrative relationship counselling, which enables me to work in a way to suit each individual and their issues. We will work together at your pace to find a healing path.

In an ever-changing and uncertain world, counselling is an opportunity to take stock and reflect on how life feels for you. No matter what your concern might be, I can give you a safe place to explore your unique take on life. Difficult thoughts and feelings can be listened to respectfully and without fear of being judged. Whether you're feeling anxious, unfulfilled or unable to cope - you don't have to face your struggle alone. Talking things through can lighten the emotional load, restore perspective and bring positive change.

Are you experiencing a difficult or challenging time in your life? Perhaps you are feeling stuck and unable to move forward? Whatever your reason for considering therapy and viewing my profile, it is often the case that we 'hit the wall' or 'crash' emotionally before we can identify that we may need professional support. When our usual coping mechanisms no longer work the struggle can be overwhelming. As your therapist I recognise this as your first and critical step toward positive change. You are, I'm sure, familiar with the phrase 'if you do what you've always done...you get what you've always got' and how true it is.....

My aim is to create a safe and non-judgmental space that focuses on an individual's strengths to help them grow and promote their own wellbeing. I am a neurodiversity coach and counsellor. I have over 13 years of experience in the mental health and neurodiversity field. I run my own practice and provide counselling and neurodiversity coaching. Autism and ADHD have been the areas of expertise in which my passion and dedication has grown. I have worked with both neurodiverse children and adults, with my focus being more with adults in the last 4 years.

Do you feel like no matter how hard you try you just can’t shake the feeling that life is a daily battle you must fight? You may feel like you’ve had enough of being overwhelmed, stressed and tired. Perhaps relationships are difficult to create or maintain, or you may be tired of fighting unhelpful behaviours, pain and distress. I just want to let you know that you are not alone and that there is hope. I can provide you with a safe space where you can understand where those issues are arising from and find ways to stop and prevent them. Life is difficult in so many ways, but you can find ways to free yourself and start living fully!

Whatever you are feeling now, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Life can be tricky sometimes and you may think that people can't understand you because of what you are going through. Sometimes you need someone to listen to you, to help you to understand what is actually happening. I can help you to walk through this journey, to find a way to a safe place which respects your values and beliefs. You can talk about any issues that bother you and explore your emotions without judgment. I have 19 years of training and experience in a broad range of topics in psychotherapy counselling and educational therapy.

Hello, I'm Deborah. Sometimes, we realise we need some support to cope with how we feel, but we may think it is too small to mention, or that it would be too much to share. You might be working through relationship, work or family challenges? Perhaps, you are feeling low, but not quite sure why? Just having someone to listen and support you in a non-judgmental way can help with perspective and recognising patterns or coping mechanisms. I have much experience in helping clients with anxiety, depression, stress, loss, sexual abuse, traumatic events, relationship issues or family conflicts.

I see that all behaviours such as self-harm, suicide attempts, drinking, drug abuse and other impulsive behaviours have developed as coping strategies to cope with and numb difficult emotions and experiences. These behaviours often act as a plaster to a deeper wound, but just like a plaster they don’t really ever fully heal unless they have time to heal properly. This is the work of therapy to take off the plaster and look more towards the root causes of the behaviour to work out what is going on for you.

We can all have difficulties in everyday life and encounter problems that we simply find hard to cope with alone. You may feel worried, anxious, low, confused, isolated or may be experience difficulties in relationships. You may be suffering from feelings of low self esteem or low self confidence. You may have been diagnosed with anxiety, generalised anxiety disorder, depression, or maybe you are just feeling sad. When these feelings and thoughts persist and become overwhelming it may be difficult to know which way to turn.

Hello, I work with adults (16 plus) presenting with various problems such as anxiety, depression, intense and overwhelming emotions, bereavement, ADHD, and relationship difficulties. Additionally, I have experience working with students in higher education, where mental health difficulties are impacting on academic performance. If you are experiencing symptoms associated with BPD/EUPD, I can offer dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) informed treatment. This may include individual sessions, in addition to a skills training element.
