Counselling in Exeter

Hi, I'm Melanie, a Dorset-based Counsellor, Integrative Therapist & Wellbeing Coach. I provide private 1-1 sessions to adults 18+ locally and remotely (online) to adults anywhere across the UK. At the heart of the therapeutic work is developing a strong alliance with my clients and providing a safe, non-judgmental space to explore thoughts and feelings about troubling things. Counselling and Integrative Therapy can help with a wide range of (short and long-term) issues, including; Low self-esteem, Life purpose, Change and Loss, Relationship & Attachment issues, Trauma, Poor coping skills, Bad habits, Depression and Anxiety.

Hello, I am a BACP accredited Individual, Couples and Young Persons Counsellor/Psychotherapist and also a Therapeutic Coach.  I work from my  private practice in Wedmore on the Somerset Levels,  near Cheddar,  Wells, Glastonbury and Weston super Mare. I offer a FREE introductory 15/20 minute appointment, so please get in touch via e mail or telephone to find out more about how I work, and to discuss your needs. This will hopefully help to assist you in deciding whether I am the right therapist for you. If distance or travelling is a problem,  I also offer sessions ONLINE, VIa ZOOM OR BY TELEPHONE.

Even the strongest people can struggle from time to time. Are you feeling like your relationships aren't as good as they could be? Would you like to feel better about yourself? Are there any behaviours or substances that feel like they're getting out of hand for you? I can help.

Hi, I'm Michelle. I offer counselling to individuals and couples. Life can be challenging and there are times we can feel overwhelmed. I offer a safe and compassionate space to explore the challenges you are facing. I'm trained as an integrative therapist, which means I draw from a range of counselling approaches including Psychodynamic, Person-centred and Gestalt. As each person is unique, I aim to listen and develop a way of working together that fits with your needs.

I am a highly experienced Family and Systemic Psychotherapist who works with families, couples and individuals. Currently I am working on-line and also face to face in the Taunton area of Somerset. I specialise in both child-related issues such as depression, anxiety, autism, ADHD and also adult families where there are relationship issues, unresolved difficulties from the past or perhaps mental health difficulties. My work with couples is often when there is a desire to improve the relationship and rediscover some of the joy that may have been lost. I also enjoy working with children and adults individually.

I work with people online across the UK and 18 years of experience has shown me that confusion, isolation, anxiety, depression, apathy, addictive behaviours and feeling 'stuck' inhibit us from moving forward and achieving a personal sense of well being and purpose. Usually, unravelling past events and clearly seeing the impact of them brings refreshing clarity and often relief. Understanding ourselves, our families and others better is hard work but also life changing. The privilege of my job is seeing positive change happening in and beyond the sessions. New opportunities and increased self-empowerment inevitably follow.

Relationship Counsellor and Anxiety Therapist, BACP Accredited Psychotherapist, based in Hythe near Southampton, Hampshire. I'm Tom Buckland and I've been helping people through difficult times since 2003 and specialise in providing Couple Counselling (once know as marriage guidance counselling or relationship counselling) as well as working with Anxiety and Trauma. I work in a humanistic approach so we can work out together the best approach in the therapy to help you.

I am an experienced Relationship, Couple and Family Therapist, and a registered member of the National Council of Integrative Psychotherapists, and offer a warm, welcoming and inclusive practice. There are often times in our lives when relationship and family situations can be a cause of great distress and confusion. Anxiety, depression, bereavement, health or money worries, divorce and separation, infidelity, low self-esteem, blended families and parenting differences are just some of the many issues that can have an impact on us and our relationships.

Many of my clients are expert copers. People who have been "getting on with it" and "pushing through" all of their lives. They may have lives that look great from the outside, and feel lonely, disconnected and overwhelmed on the inside. Eventually that way of living becomes unsustainable. My clients want some inner peace and calm, connection with others, and freedom and confidence in being themselves. They leave therapy with a greater understanding of their lives, compassion for their struggles, and joy in who they have revealed themselves to be. I love the work - whether its with individuals, couples, triads, or groups.

I offer an affordable 25 minute initial consultation which can be paid for and booked online via my website. If you're busy working in the day I offer evening and weekend appointments. If you're struggling in your relationship you should consider getting some help. Relationship counselling will help you to talk through your issues and will allow you to be heard by your partner.

It can be a great relief to be able to share your worries and stress with someone. We all struggle at times and as much as we would like to talk to our friends or family we feel unable to let them in. Sometimes we feel stuck, alone and not able to find the solution to the problem that's making us unhappy. Being able to talk openly with someone who can support you, without judgement, as you explore your feelings and the circumstances that are causing you stress can make a big difference. You will start to feel in control, see things more clearly and feel more confident to make the changes you want to in your life.

As a Trainee UKCP Psychotherapist I believe everyone can benefit from psychotherapy and that talking to a professional is the best first step to take if you're struggling. So if your life feels out of control or you're struggling in your relationships then I can support you to make sense of your concerns, feelings and behaviours. Starting therapy is a big step so please get in touch for a free consultation where we can talk things through and ensure you get the right support you need. If I don't think I'm the right person for you then I'll signpost you to someone who is.

Does life sometimes feel like a jigsaw puzzle with pieces not slotting together? I am a great believer that we need to invest in ourselves. When life becomes difficult and those pieces are just not fitting, therapy gives you the opportunity to focus on yourself, make you the priority in an otherwise busy life. I have been through such times and it encouraged me to train as a counsellor then a psychotherapist to help clients with general mental health issues and other life difficulties, such as grief and other losses, addiction, sexuality, relationships, domestic abuse and anger issues.

I provide counselling from my private practice at my home in Melksham, Wiltshire. This is a private room providing a safe and confidential space for our work together. I can offer various daytime and evening appointments throughout the week. My training helps me to provide you with a reliable, regular, non-judgmental space where you can begin to talk about whatever is on your mind. I work in what is called an integrative way, using a wide range of therapeutic models, but primarily focusing on humanistic counselling.
