Often people will seek to explore past trauma and how it is impacting on their lives now, particularly their relationships with partners and children. I can assist by providing a therapeutic platform where the concerns and factors can be explored both individually, together with a partner and also with the whole family. I have experience of working with faith communities. Online video work is offered.

There's a first time for everything. Most newcomers to counselling & psychotherapy start out feeling a little intimidated by the idea of this rather mysterious process. I aim to demystify what I do - clients often comment on what they describe as a down-to-earth and accessible approach. My aim is ultimately to help you understand yourself and your behaviour. I feel that goal is best achieved by working in a non-threatening, straightforward and inclusive way.

Hello, my name is Antonia and I am a counsellor working in Ashford, Kent. Sessions are held in my dedicated counselling garden room, which is small but calm and peaceful. I would recommend an initial consultation session, in order to clarify your expectations and goals and to see if you feel that the process is for you. The relationship between a client and a counsellor is absolutely key to the success of therapy, so it’s very important that you feel comfortable with the idea of working with me before you commit to any further sessions.

I strive to be an approachable, warm and accepting counsellor who can offer you a confidential, safe and non-judgemental space to talk about whatever it is that is troubling you. I work Integratively, but underlying my theoretical approach is a belief in autonomy and the tendency towards growth and the possibility of change. These are the hallmarks of the humanistic tradition, and whilst I occasionally draw from behavioural approaches, I do so from a philosophically person centered standpoint. Essentially, I can help facilitate positive change, often in as few as six sessions only, through using a Solution Focused approach.

Reading this indicates that life is difficult, and very likely distressing, for you at the moment and you have taken that step towards accessing help. I can help to explore with you what is happening, and why, and encourage and support you in dealing with the issues that are worrying you. Everyone and anyone can be affected by depression and/or anxiety no matter what their circumstances are. Feelings of helplessness, panic and distress affect many people at some point or other in their life. These feelings may have been troubling you for some time or they may have arisen more recently in response to the current situation.

My name is Jacqueline and I qualified as a counsellor in 2008. I have since worked with a wide variety of issues such as bereavement, anxiety, low self worth, lack of confidence, addiction, relational issues such as couples, autism, understanding self concept, shyness and much more. I believe that the professional working relationship between the counsellor and client is of fundamental importance as it provides opportunities in which change can occur. For that reason I provide a free assessment of your needs. Also meeting myself prior to engaging in any counseling will help you to decide if I would be the right counsellor for you.

Sometimes life can feel too difficult to handle on your own and that's where counselling can help. You might not even know exactly what the problem is, but things just don't feel right or it might be an issue that has been troubling you for years but you have never known quite where to start in making a change. Counselling can provide a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space to explore what is troubling you. I will listen without judgement and together we can try to work out a way forward so that you can begin to live the life you want to be living.

If you are an individual or part of a couple that have issues around your relationship, or sexual relationship then please do get in contact. Perhaps your relationship is currently in crisis and nothing has changed, or perhaps you want to seek some help now before it gets any worse. It isn't always easy to sort these matters out by yourself and Counselling or Couples Therapy can help you get your relationship back on track. I also specialise in sexual issues and dysfunctions which can also negatively affect your relationship.

I am an HCPC registered Clinical Psychologist, and a British Psychological Society Chartered Psychologist. I have over 20 years experience of working in both mental health and educational settings.

Working as a Jungian Psychotherapist, Integrative Counsellor, healer and Reiki Master, and Thought Field Therapist means I work holistically. Every aspect of you is included in therapy - mental, physical, emotional, and at the soul level. I believe we do contain everything we need to know - whether we carry that consciously or unconsciously. When we get in touch with both conscious and unconscious motives and drivers, and how they manifest as behaviours, we are able to make choices and to be more of our true selves. I have run my private practice for 8 years & am a member of the British Association of Counselling & Psychotherapy.

Being in self-isolation is lonely, it's even lonely when surrounded by family or friends. Maybe you're often anxious and right now is worse than ever. Maybe you're struggling to sleep, struggling to settle and don't know where to turn. Maybe you're drinking more to get through, you're eating patterns have changed and you're not sure why. If this sounds familiar, I get it. we can take this chance to start working on what's going on for you. To offer support when you need it the most. Counselling is more than just talking, it’s more than just exploring your feelings.

It is not uncommon to reach a point in life where you feel you need to reach out for help and talk about what is going on for you in a safe space without the fear of being judged, not being taken seriously and with someone who is trained to help you. It doesn't matter how problematic your life is or what form, or size (small, medium or big) the problems or challenges in your life take, if they are causing you to suffer and be unhappy then I can help you explore them, move forwards and grow at a pace that works for you.
