In Person Counselling in Hook

I have over 15 years of experience of counselling and psychotherapy working with people with a wide variety of issues, such as relationship issues, anxiety, stress, loss and depression. My aim is to help you achieve what you need to feel happier in your life feeling listened to and understood. Repeating old patterns and ways may lead us to feel unhappy with ourselves and our lives. I will help you work through things that may be keeping you stuck and find new ways to move forward, helping you to be more the way you want to be.

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+

I am a BAPT registered Play Therapist with a Montessori background and over 20 years of experience working with children from the age of 2 1/2 to 18, at various provisions and educational settings. Play and Expressive Arts Therapy is provided on a 1:1 basis in person, either at my residence in Hook, Hampshire or at the client's school.

I’m an Integrative Therapist working online, across the UK, and in-person in Central Manchester. My specialisms are anxiety, self-esteem, low mood & relationships, in all their forms. Some of the issues I frequently support clients with include anxiety or other difficulties, within relationships with partners, friends, family members; people pleasing through fear of rejection or disagreement; work-related stress & anxiety; feelings of loneliness / isolation; feeling stuck; emotional regulation. These are all natural things to struggle with, but change is possible and therapy can help.

I can help with emotional distress, depression, stress, and anxiety (including OCD and PTSD), as well as the challenges living with a long-term physical health condition can pose.

In my experience, people make the decision to come to counselling for many reasons, and I understand that it can feel very daunting to embark on a journey of this kind. I have a number of years experience of working with individuals with a range of issues including anxiety, depression, stress, anger, loss and bereavement, addictive behaviours, as well as family/work/relationship issues. I believe that just being able to talk about your thoughts and feelings can often bring great relief, and this experience can be life changing.

Do you feel as if your mental health is out of balance at the moment? Do you feel a general sense of isolation and unhappiness? Life in today's world is challenging and there are times when stress and life events get on top of us and we feel overwhelmed and unable to cope. Perhaps I can help you to manage or overcome your difficulties - whether they are due to circumstances or a particular mental health issue such as an anxiety disorder or low mood. I aim to help you restore balance, manage life's challenges, and live a harmonious and fulfilling life that reflects your personal values. You don't have to struggle alone.

The thought of seeking counselling or psychotherapy can feel like a daunting prospect. However sometimes we can face struggles in life that seem too difficult to cope with alone. It takes courage in taking the first steps to seek help and support. My personal philosophy is that we are all complex unique individuals with our own needs, but sometimes these needs get distorted as we try to fit in and be accepted by others, or we simply become lost in the "busy-ness" of our lives.

I came to counselling late in life and bring years of life experiences as a result. I believe I have a natural empathy and understanding of my clients. Nothing shocks me and I never judge. I want my clients to reach their full potential in life, so whatever it is that is holding you back, let me help you unravel the tangle, in a safe, supportive environment. I offer private counselling based from my home office near Basingstoke in North Hampshire. I hold an Advanced Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling and Hypnotherapy and am an Accredited Member of the National Counselling Society (NCS). I offer counselling and Hypnotherapy.

Are you feeling troubled, distressed or even confused by relationship difficulties, life transitions, crises, helplessness, grief, isolation, anxiety, depression or loss of direction? Talking to a professional counsellor in a safe, confidential and non-judgemental environment can enable you to understand yourself better, make your situation more manageable and lead to lasting behavioural change. As a BACP accredited counsellor with 23 years experience of counselling adults with various difficulties, I understand how important it is to find the right counsellor to help you. For this reason I offer a free one hour initial session.

As a counsellor I will be real & completely honest with you. I will gently challenge to see what's REALLY going on. I don't just ask "how does that feel?" I help you explore issues with the purpose of achieving change and better outcomes.

Do you feel that you have lost who you are? Does it feel like you have lost control of your daily life, and you wake up every morning feeling anxious and upset? Noticed that you’re worrying about the future and how you might cope? What if you could feel like yourself again, less worries, feeling less tearful and more empowered and in control? Hello, I’m Sian. I am an accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapist and founder of Lifted Therapy.

Sometimes we all find ourselves facing situations or challenges in life, which we find distressing or feel unable to cope with. Counselling can make a real difference to how we think and feel about things and can help us to make the changes we want, for a happier life. I offer deep level support to facilitate change and self sustaining mental health. I use varying skills and concepts depending on what is suitable for each need or individual. I believe that the most important element to therapy is the relationship and trust that is built.

I am a qualified and accredited psychotherapist, providing open-ended psychotherapy, brief counselling sessions or single-session therapy to individuals, couples, and other relationships. If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, domestic abuse, life transitions or facing difficult parenting dilemmas or relationship and attachment issues? Please reach out. You don't have to face these challenges alone. I offer a free initial consultation and discounted rates. I can arrange weekly, fortnightly or ad-hoc sessions to suit your needs.

Hi, I am Varsha and I would like to introduce myself. The slogan is "Everyone can transform from the ugly duckling to the real swan they are meant to be". In these few words of this quote, I am introducing myself. like you, I am a person who has experienced life's up's and down's, has been in the depth of the well of sadness, confusion, wanting to let everything go ... I have screamed, hidden, while been in the dark, cold and surrounded by walls that are getting more narrow by the hour. Strangely something inside me woke up because someone heard me screaming "help", even when I was embarrassed asking for support.

I am an Accredited Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist with the BABCP with 10 years experience of using CBT to treat various psychological disorders. Do you struggle with intrusive thoughts of horrific nature that makes you feel like a bad person? Or do you engage in excessive checks or intense fear of contamination hence the need to engage in certain rituals to feel safe and to keep others safe? If you struggle with any of the above as well as constantly re-living past trauma events and struggle with depression leading to isolation, then get in touch!

Are you feeling overwhelmed by life or are you struggling with depression, anxiety, or loss? Counselling can offer a helpful space to talk through your feelings and start to make sense of things. I will work with you and your goals to help you start to let some light back in through the cracks.

When we find ourselves in a place where our thoughts, feelings or behaviours are impacting upon our daily lives, counselling and psychotherapy sessions offer an opportunity to understand why this is happening, make positive changes for the better, and move forward to where we want to be.

I spent 15 years working as a Relate Counsellor, alongside this I have built up a successful Practice Practice working with couples, individuals, children and young people, supporting them in improving their emotional and mental well-being. I offer a bespoke ‘wrap-around’ approach setting activities between each session, which allows on-going personal growth and development. By supporting you to explore difficulties, my aim is to facilitate you to have a deeper awareness of your core triggers and understanding of your patterns of behaviours, leading to lasting change.
