Counselling in Northern Ireland

I am a Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years experience, training and working, in the field of psychology and mental health. I specialise in providing psychological therapy online through video chat, telephone, email and instant messaging. As human beings we experience a wide array of emotions and often many struggles. None of us are meant to go through this alone and sometimes we need extra help in the form of therapy. As a fellow human being, I understand this journey. As a therapist, I feel honoured to be able to guide others during difficult parts of their life, whilst providing a space for them to be heard and understood.

Hi, my name is Claire and I am a fully qualified integrative counsellor and coach. I have worked in the field of mental health for over 15 years and I have been a qualified therapist for 9 years. I believe that it is best to help my clients heal holistically, which means I am passionate about helping you heal at a mental, emotional, physical and energetic level. I am currently seeing clients online via zoom and I offer counselling or coaching, depending on your need. Please reach out via my website.

My approach focuses on the human narrative in the meaning making process. Each human being has a story that matters and no story is less or more important than any other. Understanding our story leads to healthy connection with ourselves and our environment. Without this connection, emotional and physical suffering prevail. Entering into the therapeutic relationship takes courage and commitment because it means exploring unknown territory. It's a journey of self discovery and awareness than can sometimes feel overwhelming. Ultimately though, it is liberating and restorative. Mind, Body and Soul find new balance in co-regulation.

If you want to engage with a warm, relational therapist then I believe you might find that with me. You will experience a safe space to explore feelings and your inner world, and you will be with a trained professional who is invested and hopeful for your future.

I am one half of Different Therapy; distinct, individual, diverse - celebrating and embracing difference in our clients. My passion for counselling began many years ago, and continues to grow as I see my clients find ways to discover healing and growth . Unresolved issues have a way of coming back on us as we move through adult life. I will join you, and together we can explore whatever is bringing you to counselling. It is a privilege beyond measure to work therapeutically with others. I will help you reach your goals, feel better within yourself and learn to love all of your parts.

A fully registered member of BACP, I use an integrated approach in my client work. Using a person-centered, psychodynamic and humanistic style to keep the client at the centre of all my work, I hope to create a safe space where my clients can feel at ease to work through whatever they need to at their own pace. I am also a fully qualified EFT practitioner (Emotional Freedom Technique, also known as 'tapping') and am able to offer this technique in my client work, along with mindfulness and meditation. Sometimes we need to access more tools, helping my clients find the best fit for them can create lasting change.

I 'm a BACP Senior Accredited Supervisor/Psychotherapist and an EMDR Europe Consultant Supervisor. I am in a very small cohort (3.5%) of BACP's 48,983 members have attained BACP Senior Accredited status.

My work is focused and tailored to the client's requirements, helping them to address & challenge current, beliefs and thoughts to allow change. I offer an initial 20 minute free consultation to ensure I am the right therapist, to explain the merits of each theraputic approach for their needs. The Initial consultation will allow too the opportunity to meet without any obligation.

Hi! I’m happy to work via phone or video, but also welcome you to my quiet counselling room as soon as possible. I can meet with individuals & couples. I also enjoy working with families who have struggles, anxieties, bereavements, depression, relationship challenges, ADHD/ASD, PTSD, guilt, shame, fear, anger, self-harm, emotion dysregulation, eating disorders, OCD, etc. I'm near Lisburn and Belfast. Confidentiality is strictly observed. I also offer spiritual formation support, trained in spiritual direction & Mindfulness), can offer EMDR for traumas, and DBT counselling for emotional instabilities and self harm.

I always feel that the purpose of being in therapy is not to be in therapy. It is my aim to empower you to explore your situation, your value system and your relationships and then to think about what might not be working for you and how you might make choices to enhance your life. I invite clients to be curious abut themselves, what makes them tick and how their childhoods and life experiences have contributed to their current status. You may have an idea of what you want to achieve in therapy, you may not, but together we can find out what you want for your future. I also offer walk and talk therapy

I am a psychologist and therapist under training to prepare for my MA of clinical psychology and quality of life psychology. I have completed postgraduate studies in psychotraumatology. I have extensive knowledge of working with clients with depression, bereavement, anxiety, suicidal ideation and self-harming behavior. I run an individual practice, adapting therapy methods to the client's needs. The age of the client isn't important to me, it's just a number, what matters is the interior of a person. My priority is to develop simple techniques that can be used in everyday life to improve your way of thinking and your lifestyle.

In times of distress, thoughts and feelings can often be confusing and overwhelming. It may seem as though you have lost your way or sense of perspective. You may feel you need to speak to someone simply to get some emotional relief or you may wish to discuss a specific issue which is having an impact on your life. Sometimes it can be difficult to find your voice or even know what the issue is.

Hi. Welcome to my profile. I am fully qualified counsellor and Sensorimotor Psychotherapist. I work in an integrative way within a humanistic framework. Which simply means drawing upon a range of therapeutic approaches in my work. My therapy is tailored to each persons needs as a unique individual. Always delivered in a caring, non-judgmental empathetic way.

Are you struggling to cope with your grief and loss of a loved one? Has the death of someone near and dear to you left you feeling like you cannot go on? Has life become so difficult that your daily routines have stopped ? Do you feel like this? Do you awaken in the morning or throughout the night with thoughts racing, images flashing of what was, or what could have been? Does it feel like you have hit a brick wall, or want to curl up and hide away ? If so, I understand how you feel. I too have experienced clear loss. Or maybe it is another type of loss, like the loss of a relationship? A job? Your direction in life, Your identity ?
