Female Counselling in Guildford, ENG

I am a counselling psychologist who offers EMDR and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy. I have a background in somatic psychology and I am a yoga teacher. I deeply value the link between the mind and body and how our physical and mental health are intertwined. I endeavour to create a safe space for the whole of you where we can work both mindfully and holistically .

Hello, how can I help? My expertise is in couple’s and relational difficulties, I specialise in psychosexual therapy. This form of therapy is designed to help partners reconnect via improved sexual and relational communication. These are areas that can become fraught, tense and stuck seemingly impossible to find a way forward. I can help. I usually offer some individual sessions followed by joint ones to really learn about how things are for you both. Please know you will not be asked to do anything other than talk in the therapeutic sessions but there will be homework for you both.

I support people to live happier, healthier and more fulfilling lives, by reducing emotional distress and challenging unhelpful or rigid thought patterns. I have practiced privately for a number of years, and have also worked at the Priory Hospital, an addiction support agency and within numerous colleges. I work with individuals and with couples. Perhaps you are fed up with feeling, living or thinking in a certain way, and this is affecting your work life, your romantic relationships, your friendships or your self-esteem.

Are you weighed down by anxiety or depression? Perhaps you are going through fertility treatment and you feel an overwhelming mix of emotions - including hope and fear - and you're holding it all together - lots of spinning plates - it feels too much to carry at times. Have you given birth and the birth was difficult and you know that you need to process what happened to you, but at the same time you push the memory away so that you can get through the day - perhaps your body is different, now, since you gave birth? Perhaps you have scars, stretch marks, loose skin, a prolapse? Are you feeling lost and unsure of who you are?

Hello, my name is Emma and I am an Integrative Psychotherapist with an MA in Integrative Psychotherapy from Regent’s University London. Central to my practice is the development of an authentic, non-judgemental, trusting relationship with my clients to ensure you feel safe and secure before embarking on this process of exploration and change. My varied training and experience allows me to approach even the most complex presentations using a variety of theoretical approaches in a sensitive and unique way to best suit my client.

Hi, I’m Nicky, I provide counselling for individuals aged 11 and above, on a short or long-term basis. Life often presents challenges that can leave us feeling overwhelmed or lost. This could be from the weight of anxiety, low self-esteem, self-harm, friendship issues, exam stress, relationship challenges with family and friends, and bereavement. I specialise in helping individuals navigate these storms, offering a path towards a better understanding of themselves, their feelings, and their unique struggles

I am a Chartered Psychologist and Clinical Psychotherapist (Oxon) with over 2 decades of experience in adult mental health. I undertook my psychotherapy training in Psychodynamic Practice at Oxford University and have formal training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Psychedelic Assisted Psychotherapy (PAT) having trained with MAPS America under Marcela Ot'alora and Bruce Poulter. My work has been published in leading mental health journals, and I bring this knowledge to my private practice. Alongside my clinical training, I have a PhD in Medicine (Bris) and many years of experience as a Senior Researcher and Lecturer.

I help ADHD adults, teens, and children (11+) to discover relief from overwhelm, ease from anxiety, and courage to be true to themselves, for greater fulfilment in life and relationships. Perhaps you have a sense you struggle more than others, which can leave you feeling ashamed and unsure of yourself. With an unruly mind and relentless anxiety, you can feel held back from what’s important to you in life and relationships. Some part of you knows there's a happier more fulfilled 'you' desperate to get out. I offer a nurturing and empowering space, where we'll discover who you are with more clarity, ease, and trust in yourself.

I am an accredited OCD specialist with 18 years of professional experience following my own journey with OCD. I train, treat, write, speak about OCD and am a huge advocate of specialised mental healthcare. I believe all clients have the right to this, as they do with physical healthcare. I have developed a NICE-directed, evidence-based CBT protocol for OCD which offers real, effective 3rd generation treatment, delivered with compassion & expertise.

Counselling is there to help resolve any concerns which you may have within you - it's processing personal issues, helping you to achieve a self-awareness and understanding, it is the deepest and most effective way of educating ourselves. In a counselling session you are free to offload, explore and learn. This is an outlet for your most personal and sensitive feelings, it is only about you, it's your space, a place to shed and repair, without judgement, a place to grow. I offer a safe, confidential, non-judgemental environment where we can explore any issues you bring. I will be led by you, this is your time

You may be looking to understand yourself better to live a fulfilled life, process difficult emotions and deal with stress and issues affecting your mental health. The coping mechanisms you've adopted may no longer serve you, so it's time to explore the root causes, understand yourself better, and develop your true self. I work primarily from a psychodynamic perspective, which explores early childhood experiences, patterns, and emotions and how these are impacting your life. I also integrate other approaches to therapy, for example, CBT and Somatic/Embodiment, depending on what you might need.

Sometimes life can leave us finding it difficult to cope or just to make sense of things at a challenging time. This can lead to feeling overwhelmed by emotions such as anger, frustration, anxiety, loneliness, or sadness. Or perhaps you are having difficulty in your day-to-day relationships either at work, with friends, partner or child? Or you may be having difficulty dealing with mental health problems. Maybe you feel stuck or unable to control your negative feelings or there may be something from the past which is bothering you and you feel you would like to explore this further to make sense of where you are now.

Are you struggling with finding your direction in life? Perhaps you are feeling lost, anxious or low in mood? Do you find yourself pulled into unhealthy relationship patterns, or feel like you can't connect fully with others? These are common difficulties I work with. I am an experienced Clinical Psychologist registered with the HCPC. I use a compassionate, evidence-based approach to help individuals identify the changes they’d like to make and to learn new skills for dealing with difficult thoughts, feelings and behaviours. I work with adults and adolescents aged 16+

Hi there! I am Amber, the Director of Healthy Mind Psychology. We aim to be a different type of practice. Our focus includes work with those people trying to cope with all the stresses and strains of unprecedented times upon us. But many struggle with issues outside of the normal narrative of mental health, or physical health too. Our practice aims to explain the stress response (whether that be from overdue bills, a critical family system, a harsh workplace, current or previous traumas, or a host of other things!) and the science behind how the mind/body interact to create physical symptoms, emotional distress, or bad habits!

Are you suffering from an eating disorder? Are you constantly feeling not good enough? Are your anxieties stopping you from living the life that you want? Are you feeling stressed, overwhelmed or burnt out? Are you a perfectionist with unrelenting standards and highly self-critical? Do you find yourself sabotaging your relationships? Whatever your circumstances, I am here to help. ‘Tutum' is a latin word which means 'safe'.​ I founded Tutum Psychology to provide a safe space for people to talk. The scientific literature has shown that feeling safe in your therapeutic relationship is important in order for therapy to be a success.

Hello I’m Jeni. As an experienced Dramatherapist I have found that when things are too hard to talk about initially, creativity can help us to express and process and then release what no longer serves us. My private practice allows me to work online with adults, and young people, and in a Primary school with a specialist speech and language unit. I have also worked in numerous Secondary schools. I have experience in working with anxiety, low self esteem, pre and post bereavement, fostering and adoption (life story work) neurodiversity and survivors of sexual assault

Do you find yourself getting easily overwhelmed? Perhaps you are tired of having a busy brain that overthinks, overanalyses, and critiques everything you do. Possibly you’ve been told you’re too sensitive, over-emotional or too caring. Unforeseen change and uncertainty may make you anxious and after periods of socialising, you need alone time to recharge. This might mean you feel different, or boring, leading you to think negatively about yourself. Perhaps you outwardly appear very “together” or successful but hide-away the fact that life seems harder for you than it does for others, leaving you feeling like an imposter.

Are you struggling with personal challenges, relationship issues, or sexual difficulties affecting your wellbeing and quality of life? As an integrative counsellor and psychosexual and relationship therapist, I will support you on your journey toward self-discovery, healing, and transformation. Our work is to develop your resilience to face challenges and to help you connect with yourself and others. I believe people from any ethnic and social background can benefit from therapy, and I am committed to creating a culturally sensitive environment where you, whatever your culture, sexuality or gender is, feel welcomed and supported.

If you are looking for help with anxiety, depression or feeling bad about yourself and find that you lack motivation, I can provide individual help. My specialist areas of expertise are working with Imposter Syndrome and anxiety. I also have a background working with other areas of interest such as PTSD, C-PTSD and trauma. I work in a compassionate, non-judgmental way that is clear and collaborative. Clients often choose me to work with as they find me 'normal, approachable and empathic'.
