Have you decided you would like some support and started to look into counselling and psychotherapy, but does the idea of sitting in a small windowless office whilst you explore your inner thoughts fill you with dread? Maybe outdoor therapy is for you? By being outdoors we can over come the intensity of being in a small office, it allows us to be side by side on your journey and creates a balance between us that can create a stronger therapeutic relationship. Being in nature you are surrounded by the cycles of our natural world and this can be incredibly useful during your own explorations of your cycles of behaviour.

Hi, I'm Lauren a trauma therapist specalising in EMDR psychotherapy. EMDR is now the front line treatment for PTSD. It can be used to treat single traumas, For example a road traffic accident. Or multiple traumas. For example, veterans, abuse survivors. EMDR is hugley succesful at treating a range of mental health issues (anxiety, low mood, poor sleep, self harm, self esteem, self sabotage behaviours and many more). For some starting therapy can be extremely daunting. Together we will develop a plan and pace that suits you.

Undertaking psychotherapy is a big step and it is important that you find the right professional and approach. I have always felt that people should have choice when it comes to embarking on something that is deeply personal. I am passionate about delivering psychological interventions that are collaborative and tailored to a individual person. There are many different types of evidence based psychological interventions, some that focus more on the past e.g your early upbringing and some that focus less on this and more on the present day

The connection and sharing of self, is the most humbling of experiences, but admittedly a little scary. . Be open to the idea that change occurs around us and help is available. I want you to feel supported at every step, and experience having your voice heard and your feelings understood. I offer both short -and long-term therapy. I am an integrative, trauma-informed therapist, which means I utilise a variety of different techniques dependant on what may be most beneficial to you and the issues you'd like to work on. My clients describe me as friendly, and caring.

Do you have extremes of feeling: anger/numbness; fear/fearlessness; afraid to be alone/pushing others away? Maybe you have a sense of yourself as being very different with different people, or in different situations. You may have some ideas as to the roots of your current difficulties, or it may feel as though it has come out of nothing. It may be that you have struggled to find a therapist who can offer more than a limited number of sessions, or that you haven't felt able to bring the different parts of yourself. All parts of you are welcome here.

Ok! Is it time to do something about how you have been feeling? It could be that you have been struggling with your negative thoughts, work stress, health challenges, difficulties in your relationships, increased anxiety, low mood, or all of the above and then some. That is the first step, recognising that you can do something different right now to change the way you feel. You may or may not have sought support in the past but that was then, and this is now. It is never too late to put yourself first and prioritise what you need.

Deciding to have counselling may seem a difficult step to take especially when your feeling stressed, anxious or vulnerable. Choosing which therapist and approach is right for you can seem overwhelming. The key to successful and effective therapy is the client/counsellor relationship. Regardless of the counselling approach used. I am an experienced and qualified therapist, who offers short and longer term counselling for individuals. I am an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) This can assure the client that I maintain a high level of professional practice.

Often our anxieties and difficulties can weigh us down and we are unable to find a way forward. Our thoughts and feelings can be confusing and talking to friends and relatives about our concerns may be too difficult. I provide a confidential, safe, respectful and non-judgemental space in which you can explore your difficulties, gain insight and discover a way forward. I provide a counselling relationship where you are heard, understood and accepted. This is extremely powerful because it allows you to open up and express all of your thoughts and feelings and gain a new awareness which leads to the potential for positive change.

You have likely arrived here because yourself or someone you know is thinking about counselling. This can be a worrying and confusing time and you may just need information about what counselling is and how you can make use of it. I chose counselling as a career as there was a time where I felt like I had no voice. I was alone with my thoughts and feelings. Having therapy, allowed me to understand how it feels to be listened to, with no judgement or a fear of being misunderstood. It gave me time, space and the confidence to open up. I want to work with others and communicate how to work on their self-love and belief in themselves.

Hi I am Lowri. I am a Psychotherapist with over 20 years experince of working with people with a range of mental health struggles, in a variety of different settings. I have been practicing as a CBT therapist for apx 13 years. I use CBT and EMDR as my main mode of therapy but use an integrative approach, drawing on elements of ACT, CFT, TA. I appreciate that no two individuals or experiences are the same. Therefore, I strive to offer an individualised flexible approach, to help you feel supported to take important but often scary steps towards change, regaining inner strength and control in your life.

I am a Consultant Clinical Psychologist with a broad range of experience in offering psychological interventions to adults with complex mental health difficulties in both NHS and private practice settings. I have a particular interest in trauma/ adverse experiences, its different manifestations, and impact on ways of coping and surviving in the world. Building a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship is at the centre of this work so that we can collaboratively work together on achieving your goals.

Are you struggling with everyday life at the moment, or are you not feeling yourself? Do you have lots of thoughts going round your head and you don’t know what to do about them? Taking some time out to talk to an experienced therapist can really help. Together we can explore your feelings and worries, better understand where they come from and also figure out what changes you could make to help you feel happier. I aim to listen and be truly alongside you throughout the sessions as you talk about anything that you want to bring – be it experiences from the past, things that are happening now, or concerns for the future.

Feeling overwhelmed and unsure how to choose a therapist? Maybe you are experiencing grief that is all consuming? At times it can be scary to feel so intensely so you need someone that can help you make sense and navigate your feelings and emotions? Or perhaps you are going through changes and transformation which leaves you feeling alone and lost in this new way of being? Looking for someone who can be a witness to who you are becoming? Are you the someone that struggles in relationships and always attracts the same kind of person? Do you need therapist that will show you how to build fulfilling relationship and end those patterns?

I offer a safe, judgment-free space for people to explore whatever difficult experiences they may be going through. With over 10 years of experience as a counsellor, I have learned that counselling works best when the person feels that they can say the unsayable. My professional experience has taught when it works well counselling provides a way for a person to understand themselves and their situation better, and through that equip them to make clearer decisions and embrace change. I can offer sessions in person, online, or via telephone.
