Counselling in Barrow-upon-Humber

Is there something going on for you right now that you are not sure how to explain? Feel a sense of being lost, worried, sad, scared, angry or anxious but not sure why? Life can be difficult and counselling can help you explore what is going on. I believe we can work together and start to unpick issues and begin to understand them, improve communication, increase self-confidence and feel more empowered. I work with adults, couples and young people and love seeing a person walk away more relaxed, and in a better place. Counselling is all about you and finding your own answers.

I am a Clinical Gestalt Psychotherapist with over 15 years experience of working in both private practice and with EAP organisations and providers of NHS Primary care. I have worked with a broad and diverse range of issues ranging from mild to severe anxiety and depression requiring short and long term interventions, through to in depth Psychotherapy for those with trauma, Shame and related histories and developmental difficulties. I have also completed a Post graduate Diploma in Trauma therapy. I work within Gestalt principles and philosophical ideas, this means working in the here and now and moment to moment with the client.

Do you want greater choice over the way you feel or interact with others? Do you feel stuck or weighed down by anxiety or overthinking? Perhaps you have been through a difficult time personally and need some help to get through that. Its often easier to focus our attention on what we fear or what's wrong. Maybe you are ready to change that. Maybe you are ready to find a different way to be .

You don't have to sit on your own with your struggles. Therapy is an amazing journey in which you can learn about yourself, make sense of the things you are experiencing, and learn new ways to overcome your difficulties.

Hello, I am Niki, I have a warm, caring, genuine and honest personality. I am people person, who has a passion for helping others improve their current situation to have a more fulfilled and meaningful life. I believe counselling needs to be a down to earth experience, I believe in an equal relationship between client and counsellor. I will not judge, place my opinions or beliefs on you, but walk beside you in your journey in therapy. I offer a professional service and am flexible in my way of working, adapting the work to meet your needs.

I help clients with their struggles, whatever they may be. I help them realise their own potential and make the changes they need to grow. I believe the relationship between the client and myself is THE most important thing in the therapy room. I hope I always provide a non-judgemental and safe environment in order for clients to sit and be their true selves.

I have been offering counselling services for 10 years and I am extremely passionate about supporting individuals suffering with emotional distress and believe most people can be helped to self-soothe and heal.  I have a relaxing and private counselling room in Hull (HU5) and I offer face to face appointments on Saturdays. I have some availability during the week in evenings for online or telephone appointments.

Taking the step to seek psychological support can be a daunting prospect. Understanding this, I work with clients in a collaborative manner, enabling a safe and helpful environment, so the client feels comfortable enough to share some of their life struggles. I am passionate about adapting psychological therapies so that they are accessible and meaningful. I value a non-stigmatising approach to understand complex mental health issues and see difficulties within a multi-layered context.

I'm a clinical psychologist offering compassionate and non-judgmental therapy for individuals experiencing a variety of difficulties. Life can be hard and we all experience difficult times when we would benefit from support and additional ways of managing. I provide an individual approach to ensure the therapy best meets your needs. I will help you to make sense of your difficulties and learn new ways of coping to help you to move forward.

Are you suffering from anxiety, panic attacks, felling generally low, or facing challenges that are preventing you from moving forward and leading a full and happy life? At times life can be very difficult leaving you feeling confused, unhappy, unheard, and restricting you from leading the life you want. Counselling can be the first step towards change, regaining a sense of control in your life, and a better, more positive future for you. I work around a wide variety of issues, problems and complex situations providing you with support, empathy and a space for you to share your concerns.

Often the most important thing is to be able to tell your story and have someone truly listen and accept you. I offer a safe space to explore any difficulties. Therapy is offered face to face but I am also happy to offer video calls or home visits if you have mobility or travel issues.

Feeling SAD, CONFUSED and/or ANGRY? Feeling stuck/trapped? What's the point? Nothing changes? I know the fears of opening up emotionally or mentally. I also know now of how beneficial it is for YOU. To have time to understand your 'self' so that YOU can process and heal, change YOUR future. It's empowering. I have studied for 6 years, to Masters level. Committed to my own personal development. Losing nearly three stone in weight (an emotional eater). Unattached from drinking 5 times a week to now occasionally socially or sometimes I just drink water and ice! Smoking and a fitter body is next. YOU are important! Take control back!

I am an integrative trauma based counsellor with a preference for a person-centred approach. This means that I draw on different techniques and approaches to counselling depending on your individual needs. I also offer EMDR trauma therapy and CBT. In addition, I work with couples experiencing difficulties in many aspects of their relationships, such as infidelity, communication break down and sexual issues. I am passionate about and have extensive experience within the LGBTQ+ community and working with ethical non monogamy. I also work as a supervisor for other counsellors.

I have over 19 years experience working with people - My clients come to me, when they feel overwhelmed, exhausted and in need of support - they can't manage their thoughts, relationships, behaviours alone any longer and they need someone to talk to in a confidential, non-judgmental way. Together we explore, unpick, understand and make changes, so that life can become more manageable, enjoyable and less exhausting. For me, each of my clients are individuals, and its about getting the right balance - seeing what works and what doesn't work for them, promoting change together.

Life can be a struggle sometimes or it may have always been this way for you. You may feel that you live life just going through the motions, but inside you’re screaming. Maybe you feel empty or constantly angry. Perhaps you’ve lost yourself and don’t know how to find ‘you’ again. It could be that everything is an effort and you lack motivation, or you’ve lost your purpose in life. You may be stuck with negative thoughts about yourself or others; feeling lonely, angry, shame, guilty, grief, anxiety or sadness.

I work with individuals & couples. All genders, identities & backgrounds are welcome. I'm passionate about empowerment and improving overall self-confidence to help you develop a positive relationship with yourself and others. I use range of techniques from different approaches to ensure I work in a way that suits you personally. I am happy to work with a range of different concerns within therapy. For couples we can work through issues such as communication difficulties, problem solving, lack of intimacy, sex drive, feeling disconnected, financial worries, work stress, infidelity, trust and more.

Are you struggling with heightened anxiety, low mood, anger, addition or other emotional issues? I offer psychological therapy to help you on your way to improved emotional wellbeing. Engaging in therapy can help improve your day to day mood, your sleep, increase motivation and enhance your relationships.

With over 27 years experience counselling, I have had clients from all walks of life, different social and financial standing, ethnic minorities and people with different cultural and educational background; individuals and couples, married/unmarried as well as LGBTQI. Issues that my clients have presented range from anxiety and depression, workplace stress, low self esteem, sexual dysfunctions to just hoping to find a better way of dealing life in general.
