Hello, I'm Katy. I am an Integrative Counsellor and Psychotherapist, meaning my approach is entirely focused on your individual needs. I offer a confidential, caring and empathic space free from judgement to explore the issues that are affecting your wellbeing and impacting your daily life. Perhaps you are feeling anxious, depressed or overwhelmed and finding it difficult to see a way forward. I would like to offer a safe and comfortable environment to work through those challenges together. Therapy can help you gain further awareness of who you are, help you make the most of your life and harness your inner strength.

Hello, I am Aldona. You are here so maybe it means you are thinking about counselling or psychotherapy. Investing in mental health is as important as physical. Anybody can benefit from therapy no matter what age or gender you are. It can be very rewarding because it helps you be the person you want to be. In these times of uncertainty, uneasy economic and political situation; isolation, bereavement and also historic emotional issues could be experienced more frequently and intensively. Difficulties experienced for a prolonged time can lead to somatic problems. “A good life is a process, not a state of being" (Carl Rogers)

I don't believe that there is one method of psychotherapy that suits everyone. I believe in adapting my way of working for each client I meet. You may feel that you want to work short-term on a specific aspect of your life. You may feel that you want to take time to look back on your early life experiences or you may not know where to start or where you are going. Whatever your situation is, I will do my best to see the world as you do and, where possible, offer you an alternative perspective. I believe the same is true for children and using sand tray and art materials I allow children to process their emotions through play.

Are you feeling stressed, anxious, stuck, looking for meaning, or wondering why life is passing you by? Whatever your anxieties, therapy is for you if you want to feel happier about yourself or are looking for deeper meaning and purpose in your life. I offer EMDR as well as short and long-term psychotherapy to adults. You can expect to gain a deeper understanding of yourself and your abilities. You may learn how to have more loving relationships with yourself and with others.

You are facing a challenge that feels too difficult to handle alone. You want support in working towards feeling less anxious or overwhelmed. You want a chance to talk about what has been creating difficulty for you or perhaps try and understand what is causing you distress. You want the chance to have a space which allows you to open up and work towards a renewed sense of possibility.

Perhaps you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or isolated. Maybe you struggle with a sense of hopelessness, feeling that your circumstances or your past mistakes define your future. You may be searching for therapy because you long for change, for a life where burdens are lighter and joy returns. I offer understanding without judgment, practical guidance, and its my sole purpose to help you find a renewed belief in yourself. My practice is compassionate, solution-focused and based in relationship.

“We often find that the harder we try to get rid of emotions and thoughts, the stronger they become.” Hi, I’m Lauren. As an experienced counsellor, I consider it a great privilege to walk alongside my clients on their therapeutic journey where every client is unique and there is a new opportunity for learning and growth. When you say "a part of me feels this…. But another part of me feels that…” you have already embraced the idea of Internal Family Systems Therapy, which as an integrative psychotherapist I use amongst other therapeutic modalities such as CBT, Person Centred Therapy and Compassion Focused Therapy, to support you.

LIVE YOUR BEST LIFE. THE TIME IS NOW. I have named my website as the Sacred Voice Therapy, because I truly believe we all have that innermost voice within us. Some call it "gut feeling" others "intuition". However we "label" it, it is always there for us to access it. Are you looking for a long lasting Change? Are you questioning the point of it all? Are you curious about your full potential? Do you want to live your life boldly and fully? Do you have questions around true emotional intimacy? Are you wondering about your inner peace and equanimity?

I work with individuals and couples, helping them find ways to live a more fulfilled and satisfying life. Over time, we develop ways of behaving, thinking and feeling that work well enough to get by, but sometimes get ‘stuck’; I’m trained and experienced in finding and understanding those patterns and, without judgement, getting to the heart of how to put things right. I’ve worked in private practice, charities and the NHS with a range of individual issues, particularly depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress and historical trauma; couples work includes relationship breakdown, affairs, communication and conflict challenges.

Üzüntüyü,hüznü ya da kederi hayatımızdan tamamen çıkaramayız.Beklenmedik olaylar olur,istenmeyen olaylar yaşanır,durumlar ve kişiler değişir. Nasıl ki uykumuz geliyor ve yorgun oluyorsak, nasıl ki acıkıyor ve susuyorsak, bazen çok iyi haberler alıyor ve bazen derin kayıplar yaşıyorsak, bazen gülüyor bazen ağlıyorsak duygularımız, ihtiyaçlarımız ve deneyimlediklerimiz anlık olarak değişir, gelip geçer... Önemli olan bu duyguların ne kadar sürdüğü ve bizi ne kadar etkilediğidir... Yağan yağmurdan sonra hiç gökkuşağı çıkmıyor, güneş tekrar parıldamıyor, ağaçlar yeniden çiçek açmıyorsa sizin için iklim değişmiş demektir.

I work respectfully with a diverse range of clients and situations bringing a warm, supportive and non-judgemental approach. I work with many issues including, (but not exhaustive) sexual abuse and trauma, disassociation, PTSD and complex PDST, relationships, family dynamics, cancer, dementia, addictions and carer support. It is helpful to bring what may be troubling you, either from the past or present to the safety of a counselling relationship. Many people find they are then more confident to be able to make positive changes in their lives through counselling support. I offer a free 15-minute telephone consultation.

We all can get swirled and swished around in an intense and anxious life struggles, forever burdening ourselves in the depth of our restless mind. I hold a safe, non-judgemental space for you to explore your believes about yourself about events you experienced in life. I am passionate about guiding people towards loving acceptance and self-compassion. Quantum healing happens when your fragmented aspect of you, which were stuck in space and time, breaks free from emotional attachment to the experience and come to wholeness by gaining back freedom, inner power and creative life flow. You become free sovereign being of light.

I have worked in the NHS previously and have therefore worked with mental health ranging from Personality Disorders to Depression. Working independently with my own practice has enabled a wider range of clients including working with eating habits, OCD and low mood. I truly believe that having some space to discuss what is going on for you makes a big difference and I will work with you on whatever issue you are bringing to the session. I have also trained in couples therapy so I am able to offer this as well as individual sessions. I offer weekday appointments, evening sessions on Wednesdays as well as virtual on a Monday evening.
