Counselling in Swansea

Hi. My name is Julia. If you are looking for a counsellor, then I imagine you are currently experiencing some life changes, conundrums or difficulties. This is part of being human, and we all at some point need to seek confidential help. I can offer you a safe and compassionate non judgemental space for you to work towards solutions which feel right for you.

Hi I'm Cesca Myles (she/her), an Integrative Creative Counsellor. registered Member of BACP, Associate Member of BAAT and a member of the Creative Counsellors Community CIC. I use a multi-art forms approach to help people explore their emotions and achieve greater wellbeing through online creative counselling and in person therapeutic groups. This may include visual arts of drawing, painting, clay and collage, as well as movement and bodywork, poetry/written word, and performance arts such as puppetry, drama or music. Your creativity leads and we follow, together.

You're already on your way; I'll meet you where you are. In the office, online, or outdoors, you can expect a confidential relationship free of judgment. Whether you need short-term support to cope with a transition or are looking to better understand long-term patterns surrounding transitions in your life, I hope to provide a safe, comfortable space for you to explore and develop the skills you feel would help. I offer regular weekly, biweekly, or monthly sessions depending on what you're looking to achieve in our work together.

Most people will be faced with difficult and painful circumstances during their lives – and it can be beneficial to seek support to help process those experiences. Finding a counsellor you feel comfortable with and are able to talk to is vital. I have worked with people who have faced a range of different challenges; Our sessions together enable my clients to safely process feelings and experiences they are struggling with, allowing them to develop their ability to recognise and embrace their own needs and improve their well-being. I can provide a confidential space where you are able to explore difficulties at your own pace.

Internal Family Systems is the fundamental psychotherapeutic approach that helps people deal with the legacy of trauma. We will work collaboratively, understanding what is being brought to the room and making sense of it together in an environment of safety and respect. I hope that our time together will deepen your self awareness and capacity for a fuller sense of you. Through expanding and deepening your understanding of yourself, compassion and perspectives can broaden- loosening the bolts on personal narratives or beliefs and creating room and opportunities for a different experience.

Have things come to a point in your life where it just feels really difficult to carry on? Do you find that you are anxious, worrying over the future, and fretting about decisions that need to be made? Do your thoughts drift repeatedly into the past, perhaps returning you to trauma or disappointment? Would you really like to be listened to with care and attention? Perhaps it is not advise that you need, just the opportunity to share what you’re going through, and find ways to feel better, more resilient and more able to cope. Perhaps you just want to feel more contented and at peace.

Hello, I'm Kate. I offer 1:1 counselling to adults. This can be short or long term depending on your needs. I work face to face in Cheltenham or online via Zoom. I offer a warm, supportive and confidential space to explore your feelings, thoughts and experiences. Counselling can help you to look at a particular issue that is worrying you, to make sense of difficult feelings, to explore deeply rooted issues, or simply to understand yourself better. I work with clients on many issues including anxiety, depression, grief and loss, low self-esteem, feeling stuck and unmotivated, questions of identity, and adapting to life changes.

Finding the right counsellor can feel like an impossible task. I recognise the courage that it takes to reach out for support. It may feel incredibly uncomfortable to prioritise what you need. Life can be hard and we all have so many demands on our time and attention. When is the last time you felt that somebody really listened to you? Or that you felt truly heard, without judgement? Everybody’s counselling journey is a unique and collaborative experience. You are always at the heart of this work – I am not here to ‘fix’ you, or to tell you what to do. Who better to understand your own thoughts, feelings and life history than you?

I am a BACP Registered Integrative Counsellor and mainly practice Intensive Short Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP). ISTDP is an emotion-focused, trauma-informed and attachment-based approach with very positive research outcomes. Some people begin therapy clear about what they want help with, others need some assistance in understanding their difficulty. I provide a safe space for clients to better understand their behaviour and experiences by making links between the present difficulty and the past. We also work together in the session to help you explore new ways of relating to yourself and your problem.
