Existential Counselling in Nottingham
My approach also acknowledges the systemic and environmental factors that affect your distress, both from an existential and social justice perspective.
Hi there, welcome to my profile. You might have arrived here with a clear sense of what hurts, or are struggling to understand what is difficult. You may be lost, stuck, or scared. You might be going through an important transition in your life. You may be reading this under some distress and are considering taking the next step to work on that suffering. Perhaps you are experiencing oppressions that leave you feeling marginalised and worn down. You may face difficulties relating to neurodiversity. The above factors (amongst others) may contribute to a sense of feeling out of place, both within yourself and in relationships.

I'm Joe, what d'ya know? I'm an integrative therapist, primarily working from the Gestalt modality. My wish here is to really connect with you and find out your story. I believe that therapy should be natural. Keeping it real. It's my wish to help gain awareness for a deeper enjoyment of life, exploring potential blocks that maybe stopping you from moving forward. I come with a lot of lived-experience, and am no stranger to the hard knocks of life. Taking that first step into the therapy room is the hardest - but once you do, I am here for you.

My name is Jo and I am a BACP accredited therapist and supervisor with over 11 years experience in practice. Using a blend of Person Centred and Solution Focused therapy I can offer short term solution focused therapy (6-8 sessions) and longer term if there are perhaps multiple issues to address. I came into counselling following a difficult period in my own life and felt that I wanted to give something back by helping others who may find themselves struggling in life.

Working with clients who feel confused, conflicted or unhappy about who they are, is an area of therapy I am drawn to. Whether as a result of birth; life choice; changes in circumstances or life stage; labelling or perceptions by others; or unresolved events from their past, this can feel an isolating, anxiety- inducing, unsettling and distressing time, it can also feel difficult to stop feeling negatively about yourself, feeling you're to blame. I get it, I really do. I can provide a non-judgemental space for you to explore your inner thoughts, worries, or beliefs that are making life difficult to cope with. A place you can be you.

I work with adults, couples, and adolescents, providing a non-judgmental space to work within and support you in therapy. I will help you explore and gain insights into your experiences and overcome difficult feelings and behaviours. How we communicate and form relationships in life are fundamental but often can be difficult and complex. How we feel about ourselves can be equally as complex, often challenged by feelings of not being good enough. Childhood experiences shape patterns of thinking, behaving, and feeling and may not work for us in adulthood, leading to struggles and unhappiness.

People seek out therapy for lots of different reasons. It can take time to feel safe enough or trust enough to talk openly. Sometimes there are not the words.

I aim to meet you where you are at so that you have the time and space to feel heard and met as you are. Together we can explore the challenges but also seek to identify and build on your strengths.

How does existential therapy work?
Existential therapy focuses on a patient’s inner experiences. The therapist tries to help the individual comprehend and alleviate symptoms by exploring their interior life. By confronting negative disquiet and emotions, the individual will hopefully become more open to finding meaning and purpose. This therapy can be administered to individuals or groups.
Is existential therapy evidence-based?
Existential therapy is an evidence-based practice. Research has determined that existential therapy can lead to significant improvement in the mental health of patients, and for some people it can be just as effective as cognitive behavioural therapy. The benefits of existential therapy are enduring, even long after treatment has ended.
How long does existential therapy last?
The goal of existential therapy is to understand a person’s internal experiences, which may sound like a lengthy process, but it does not have to be so in-depth. However, sessions are not short-term, and therapy can continue for months or up to a year. And because patients learn the theory behind existential therapy during treatment, they can also practice its tenets throughout life after therapy sessions have been completed.
Is existential therapy effective?
According to research, many patients find success with existential therapy. Researchers note that the therapy is particularly useful in improving feelings of isolation, feelings of purposelessness, as well as conditions such as anxiety and depression. Improvements in problem areas can persist even after the end of existential therapy, as individuals can continue working on themselves by using the tools they’ve developed during treatment.
