Counselling in NE1

My work is to empower you to understand and manage your own and your family's psychological wellbeing. From initial confusion and hopelessness the end game is enlightenment and clarity. I rely on data, clear aims, objectives, and objective measurement.

I am a Counsellor working from a Person Centred approach integrating Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Psychodynamic approaches. I provide a safe, professional and confidential space to help support clients and facilitate change during challenging times. I provide services that are unique to your individual needs and can create a bespoke combination of therapies that include Counselling, Coaching and Mindfulness. Services can help you feel empowered, make changes, identify & face challenges head on, gain control over your life, provide greater insight & perspective whilst learning coping strategies and encourage a positive mindset.

I’m a qualified counsellor with a Master of Science in Counselling Psychology, my main aim as a counsellor is to help people to be empowered to make the changes that they wish to. Through my private practice I work with adults over the age of 18. I help people to cope with difficult life transitions to adapt to the changes that are presented. I help people to make links between experiences in childhood or teenage years and current issues such as anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and difficulties in relationships.

Hi there, I’m Kathryn, an Accredited Psychotherapeutic Counsellor, Accredited CBT Therapist and EMDR Therapist. I am happy to arrange a free telephone consultation discuss how I can help. I specialise in helping adults with trauma or PTSD / c-PTSD, OCD, attachment or relationship issues, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. As well as other difficulties people may be facing. I aim to help people who are feeling 'stuck' and want to make changes to improve the way they feel about themselves. This may involve working on your history or staying in the present, learning new ways to manage and recover from emotional difficulties.

Whether you grew up knowing you were autistic/ADHD or realised later in adulthood, it can have an influence on your ability to connect, express emotions & to let go of neurotypical (NT) standards & thrive as a neurodivergent (ND) adult. Navigating these difficulties can lead to feeling disconnected & split from oneself, burnt-out, & being confused about the future. Counselling is a great place to build a secure sense of self that helps you feel calm & centred even through the most difficult times. Together we can heal the disconnection, build coping strategies to recover from burn-out & develop strength from the challenges you face.

Hi, I'm Fiona, I'm an accredited counsellor with over 9 years of experience working in a variety of settings. Whatever difficulties you are experiencing I can provide you with a safe and confidential space to talk through your problems at your own pace. I will listen, without judgement, and be genuine, empathic and respectful, providing a supportive therapeutic relationship which research has shown as essential for effective therapy. I'm an integrative therapist and so adapt my counselling approach to the individual needs of each person. I often draw in elements compassion focused therapy and cognitive behaviour therapy.

I offer a space where you can feel safe and free to talk about the issues that you are currently facing, knowing that what you say is confidential, and will not be judged. Are you suffering from problems that are hindering you from actively enjoying life? I work with you to find a deeper understanding of what may be causing these problems, working towards raising awareness of why you feel the way you do. This will enable you to make changes in your life and increase your sense of wellbeing.

I mainly work with LGBTQ+ adults who wish to meet a counsellor where those aspects of their identity will not be unnecessarily questioned or looked at, but can be spoken about respectfully and safely. I aim to offer you a sense of hope and empowerment, along with techniques you could use in your life to enhance or help you cope with your experience of existence. I can support you to explore whatever is going on in your life such as stress, grief (including for loss of pets), exploring gender identity, exploring sexuality, body image, anxiety or depression.

I am passionate about people's wellbeing, growth and transformation. My approach is transpersonal, which includes your practical, emotional, and if you want it, higher self and spiritual aspects, to help you become more authentic and more content with your life. I work intuitively and energetically, in a compassionate and friendly way, seeking to enable you to understand yourself and increase your awareness of your behaviour, thoughts and feelings.

I am a fully qualified psychotherapist with experience of working with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and trauma. My work has taken place in primary care, the charity sector and private practice. I specialise in working with individuals and couples offering psychosexual therapy to help overcome sexual difficulties. I am currently undertaking a diploma in this subject.

I am a Clinical Psychologist with over 15 years of experience, specialising in providing compassionate and down-to-earth therapy. As a bookworm, rock-climber, and cat-Dad, I understand the importance of connecting on a personal level. Therapy with me is a journey focused on compassion, resilience, and understanding. I believe that your story is central, and together, we can navigate through challenges or nurture the positives in your life. I work with a wide range of clients and have expertise in stress, sadness, worry and couples work. I offer a tailored approach to suit your unique needs.

Are you feeling low, anxious or helpless? Or maybe you just know something just doesn't feel right? Are past events and traumas still troubling you today? Are you confused by your behaviour and your reactions towards yourself and others? I am a Clinical Psychologist and I work with people just like you! I am experienced in supporting people to understand themselves better and to improve their relationships with others, supporting people to heal from the traumas that they have experienced, supporting those who don't feel like they fit anywhere, and those who question their whole lives because of the experiences that they have had.

Hi, I'm Lorna, an experienced psychotherapist (UKCP). I offer you a safe, encouraging, and warm relationship, enabling you to work through present or past issues contributing to your mental and physical well-being. I have extensive experience working with Neurodivergent clients, including ADHD and autism, and I'm neurodivergent.

I specialise in OCD, social anxiety, generalised anxiety, health anxiety, phobias, women's issues including menopause, impulse control disorders, low mood, stress, and relationship issues. I am a Clinical Psychologist with an additional Masters in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and have over 9 years experience delivering psychological therapies in the NHS.

I specialise in working with LGBTQ+ clients and those who have always felt ‘different’ in some way. Your identity and experiences might make you worry that most therapists out there wouldn’t get you. You might be looking for help because you are experiencing anxiety, relationship challenges, difficulties making decisions or setting boundaries. It might seem like you have too many overwhelming feelings, or rarely any feelings at all. I understand that your identity may not be the reason you’re coming to therapy, but you don’t want to have to spend your session time educating your therapist about it.
