Hi, I hope your search for a therapist is going well. It can be a difficult process, but it is important to find a therapist who feels right for you. The relationship with your therapist is, on average, more helpful than their training and experience. Person-centred therapy is a relationship. It is not dependent on medical diagnoses, yet can help with all conditions. It is as effective as other leading therapies, but uniquely it puts the client at the centre of the process. There is no 'you should do this'. The questions, and the answers, will come from within during our conversations.

I endeavour to provide a safe, comfortable, quiet space for clients to explore sensitive issues. The relationship between myself and the client is at the heart of my approach. I believe that being with a client and offering a compassionate holding presence while they share their story is essential to establish a working therapeutic alliance before offering insight and psycho education. I adapt my approach to suit the needs of each client and integrate suitable interventions or tools work with whatever issue the client is presenting.

For those who feel distress, anxiety or confusion in the present and who are struggling to make sense of their situation and fulfil their potential, I can offer a space to look deeper into the issues and work creatively towards healing and fulfilment. Trauma and memories are held in the body and recognising them can offer more space within. Allowing the body to express itself can free up body tension and encourage creativity.

I'm Louise and I’m a qualified person-centred counsellor, and a registered member of the BACP. I work in a non-judgemental, warm mannered and confidential way, where we can safely explore the issues that are negatively impacting your well-being, because sometimes our problems can feel too much and too difficult to manage by ourselves. I am here to listen. Counselling can provide you with the space and time to explore how you fit in the world and help you to gain clarity, acceptance and authenticity.

I have been working in this field for over 17 years, supporting local families, adolescents and adults through a variety of eating disorders (anorexia nervosa, binge eating disorder, bulimia nervosa, ARFID) and aim to accompany individuals and families as they navigate their recovery journey.

Hello, my name is Tina, Life can be overwhelming at times and finding the right counsellor can be daunting, especially when you want to trust someone to talk through personal issues. I can help you to learn to express yourself in a confidential environment. I am non-judgemental, down to earth and supportive with a lot of NHS experiences. Life is not always straightforward, it may feel impossible to move forward and to visualise your potential self. Family and friends can help; however, this may not always be possible, that’s where I can help you find yourself again in a confidential, naturally caring environment.

If you are reading this profile, you have come to a point in your life where you need some help - someone to talk to, who will truly listen, with empathy and understanding. Whether you are suffering from anxiety, depression, bereavement or whether you are questioning the purpose or direction of your life, being able to freely express your thoughts and feelings in an atmosphere of safety, confidentiality and trust can open up new ways of seeing and being, enabling you to break free of past conditioning, becoming more aware of who you really are and finding your true potential.

Sometimes life can feel a little overwhelming. Dealing with conflict at work or how you feel about yourself maybe how you treat yourself. Or maybe you would like to be more assertive, to be able to respect who you are and what you do. Or maybe you have lost someone or something you loved. You may feel you are out of control, or you may be being abused. Are you forever going over conversations or awkward moments thinking what if, what do others think of me. Let me help you find your way to finding you again, the you that loves yourself for who and what you are, a beautiful caring person.

I have worked with and supported individuals with a range of complex mental health difficulties for over twenty years, initially as a nurse and now as a qualified CBT therapist . Many of my clients have needed an alternative way to view their situation to 'free' them from the distress they have been experiencing, along with a tailored tool box of coping strategies which they can choose from to empower them to manage the challenging experience. I have helped adolescent & adults experiencing OCD, PTSD, psychosis and/or complex emotional/relational difficulties, where the intervention required has been stress/anxiety targeted.
