Counselling in Guildford

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.

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.

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.

A fully accredited psychotherapist with over 16 years of experience, my passion is using creativity to help clients move forwards with positivity. I gained an MA in Music Psychotherapy in 2009 and set up my own creative therapies practice in 2016. My experience includes providing therapy in adult mental health settings and I especially enjoy a person-centred approach. I enjoy working with families as well as 1:1 therapy. My approaches include psychodynamic, person-centred, integrative and systemic. My work has been wide-ranging, encompassing community, corporate and education.

I consider myself to be a warm, caring and approachable person. I know that coming for counselling takes great courage and I will do my utmost to help you feel at ease. I trained in an integrative approach to counselling, this allows me to tailor therapy, to meet each individual client's needs. I believe that people are unique human beings, who have the potential to make the most of their lives. I have considerable experience of working with nervous illness including, anxiety, depression, OCD, diversity, age related issues and also a wide range of personal problems and relationship problems.

You might be feeling stuck or wondering whether you've made the right decision. You might not even know what the right decision is. You might even want to explore who it is that you are, why you do the things that you do, or why you're in the situation that you're in. If that is you, then consider what it is that counselling and psychotherapy might be able to do in helping you to consider all these questions that you might have about yourself and your situation.

Are you struggling with uncomfortable feelings or unease with: yourself, others, society, or work? Maybe this is related to your relationship with yourself including: worry, stress, anxiety, and guilt. Possibly you are feeling stuck, depressed, or encountering uncomfortable feelings. Perhaps it' s the experience of loss about a dear one or a valued part of yourself, or losing your relationship with others, or when family issues drive a desire to explore endings and possibly moving on. Are you searching for that trained listener with whom you can relax and say and explore what is frustrating you in your search for peace of mind.

Hello, my name is Maria and I'm an experienced, professional BACP counsellor. I recognise you've taken a bold step to reach out for help and it can be daunting to find a therapist who you can trust and connect with. Being sensitive, curious, non judgemental, along with a sense of humour enables my clients to feel safe, to be open and vulnerable with themselves and others. Perhaps your experiencing difficulties with life, relationships or work and cope by keeping busy, numbing yourself or avoiding your thoughts and feelings. These strategies may leave you feeling anxious, stressed, lonely or depressed if not dealt with.

Seeking therapy may feel like a step into the unknown. I believe it is a respite; a place to re-make a connection with yourself. It can be a safe space to bring difficult emotions and to find some understanding and perhaps discover a way to move forward. It is a different experience for everyone. Your unique life will shape how it works.

With profound empathy and extensive experience, I provide a safe and compassionate space for healing and recovery. My aim is to provide high quality therapy to all of my clients, with a deep appreciation for the uniqueness of each individual's experiences.

You may have had experience of counselling or therapy , or none at all. Sometimes it is hard to make the first step into talking therapy. You may be feeling that it could be helpful to have some time to talk about what is going on in your life, about feelings of loss, unhappiness, anxiety or maybe that things are just not 'right'. Feelings of loneliness and isolation are particularly difficult at this time. Working with the right counsellor can help to work through issues from the past , present day problems or looking towards the future and what you may want to change in your life.

At Neurodiverse Online, I, Dr Jessie Gough, and my colleagues are a small team of specialist Clinical Psychologists who provide assessment and therapy for ADHD, Autism / ASD, Tics / Tourette's, Dyslexia and related mental health difficulties such as anxiety and low mood. We have a multidisciplinary team including Speech and Language Therapists and a Specialist Teacher so that our reports and advice can be used to support applications for reasonable adjustments and EHCPs at school, university and in the workplace.

Life can be messy & rarely turns out exactly as we hope or plan. Perhaps relationship or work-life difficulties are causing you emotional pain and mental suffering. Maybe you have been signed off from work, college or university with anxiety or stress, or you’re simply not able to enjoy the ‘sunshine‘ moments of life. Counselling can help you navigate the difficulties that are causing your emotional & mental suffering & provide support as you work towards building a more fulfilled & contented life. Shame is a common theme associated with low self-esteem, however, working together we can reduce its impact to improve your well-being.

Hi, my name is Gordon. Welcome! . I was born and raised in London. Personal therapy helped me to untangle my relationship with myself and my emotions. The world alone is a chaotic place to manage our own unknowns, anxieties, and traumas. I understand that everyone experiences the world in different ways, so unique problems require bespoke responses. Our lives are constantly changing, so it’s natural to feel emotions strongly, think differently and respond atypically. I help clients explore all spheres of their life to help build hope and cope

The therapeutic space I offer is yours to focus on any aspect of life. I am a committed, genuine, caring therapist, that is invested in developing our therapeutic relationship. Together, every step of the way and in your own time, we can explore your life experience and discover where emotions may have got stuck and are now impacting your present.
