Understanding that need varies, I offer 40mins - £30.00, 50mins - £35.00, and 2hr crisis therapy at £70.00 . If you have awful feelings that have taken all the joy out of life, maybe even stop you from thinking life is worth living, I'm asking you to give therapy a try because often, using small steps, given the right support, things can and do get better.

Newid pronounced "Nowed" is Welsh for change. I chose this name not only to reflect my heritage but also to reflect that change is the only constant in life. We all travel with it, yet all our experiences can be profoundly different. I believe that counselling is a collaborative process in which we work together on what you want to change or explore in a safe non-judgemental environment. I offer an integrative approach where we work side-by-side to understand your past and help you discover new ways of coping and moving forward. I recognise that courage is not fearless and making the 1st step can be challenging in it's self.

Examples of problems that might benefit from my support include: traumatic and acquired brain injury, post-concussion syndrome, dementia, encephalitis, epilepsy, Parkinson's disease, Multiple sclerosis, brain tumours, tourette's syndrome and functional neurological disorder.
I am a HCPC-registered and BPS chartered Clinical Neuropsychologist, specialising in offering cognitive assessment and therapy to those with neurological conditions. Often, the impact of neurological symptoms on an individual’s thinking skills or physical abilities can be uncertain, bringing up feelings of loss and anxiety. Individual's can find it difficult to adjust their lifestyle to the challenges that present, leading to feeling disconnected from what is most important. I pride myself on being conscientious and integral, offering a safe therapeutic space to explore what feels most difficult.

People come to therapy for many different and important reasons. For some it is to discuss difficult and emotional experiences, while for others its to have a space in their week to reflect and make time to check-in with themselves. I ask all my clients to come with an open-mind as therapy can take you on a journey of self-discovery. I have worked with many clients with varying degrees of personal difficulties; severe and mild distress including depression, anxiety, suicide, low-self-esteem, earlier life trauma, PTSD, relational difficulties and many more.

I’m both a Clinical Psychologist and specialist coach, being able to sit with you as a therapist, coach or a blend of both. My clients most often say, “this is challenging, but it works” when asked to review the support they received. I usually fit well with people who are frustrated at their progress, perhaps ashamed / embarrassed and wanting change. (/-For more detail and client testimonials visit - www.aim-you.com-/)

Alzheimer's Counsellors

What are the first-line treatment options for Alzheimer’s disease?

The first-line treatment for Alzheimer’s disease is often medication, which may be prescribed based on the severity of the disease. These include cholinesterase inhibitors, memantine, or a combination of the two. Behavioural treatments can help people cope with emotional distress, such as anxiety or anger, and explore lifestyle changes related to housing, caregiving, sleep, and finances.

When to seek treatment for Alzheimer’s?

It’s best to seek treatment at the first signs of dementia. Early warning signs of Alzheimer’s include memory problems, such as forgetting appointments or directions, as well as trouble concentrating, paying attention, retrieving words, and carrying out daily household tasks. An early diagnosis can help people slow the progression of the disease with treatment and plan for the future in terms of housing, support, finances, and legality.

Are there natural treatments for Alzheimer’s?

Alzheimer’s disease cannot be cured via natural remedies (nor via medication), but some lifestyle habits can help forestall it or slow its progression. Lifestyle activities that can help prevent Alzheimer’s disease include regular exercise, a healthy, well-rounded diet, stimulating cognitive activity, time spent socializing, adequate sleep, and stress management as needed.
