Transpersonal Counselling in Bournemouth
Hi, I'm Lisa — and if you're here, you're probably going through something that feels heavy, confusing, or just really hard to carry on your own. Whatever's brought you here, you don't have to keep carrying it alone.
I offer a calm, welcoming space where there's no rush and no judgement. Just time and room to talk, to breathe, and to start making sense of what's going on for you. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, feeling overwhelmed, carrying grief or loss, working through past trauma, or finding relationships difficult, including the one you have with yourself, I'm here to help you find some clarity and a way forward.

I imagine that whatever has happened to bring you here involves suffering. Whilst therapy can help to consolidate on successes and open up an even brighter future, most of us seek therapy because of a painful sense that all is not well. Whether it is a traumatic life event that brings you here, or difficult experiences from the past that continue to intrude on your present and future; current relationship difficulties or simply a nagging feeling of anxiety or depression, I can really understand your struggles and hope I can help you reconnect to what you love the most, and what can give your life the greatest purpose and meaning.

If you’re thinking about counselling, you might feel anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns that are hard to shift. You may be in fight, flight, or freeze—constantly overthinking, disconnected, or carrying emotional weight that lives in both body and mind. You might be longing to feel calmer, more present, and more like yourself again, but unsure where to start.
You’re seeking a space to slow down, breathe, and begin making sense of what’s going on inside.

By working within the transpersonal modality, we can explore and gain guidance on spiritual aspects of life if you're willing.
I am happy for you to contact me, in whichever way you feel comfortable with, making this first move to contact someone is the hardest step of all and it takes courage. We can have a chat and you can have a think about whether you think and feel I can help you and whether you would feel comfortable to share and work with me. My method is holistic, which involves evaluating and encouraging the alignment of your complete being. Your mind, body and soul.

I imagine you find yourself here because you are struggling with something and it is becoming increasingly difficult to manage this alone. Perhaps anxiety is ruling your life or relationships are strained. Sometimes a traumatic event or painful past experiences bring everything into sharp focus. In reaching out you are listening to that voice within that is telling you all is not well. The therapy I offer will attend to this. Together we will explore your challenges and what might be realised within your struggle as potential and possibility.

(You do not have to identify as 'spiritual' to enter transpersonal therapy.) It also recognises that we are interconnected.
Our minds are powerful, and often given all the attention when ‘mental health’ no longer feels ‘healthy’. But as time goes by, transpersonal therapy can help us see that the symptoms are there for a reason; perhaps we weren't living a fulfilling and authentic life. So we honour what your system is trying to say; let it guide us towards a more empowered you.

I’m Claire McCullough, a BACP‑registered Humanistic and Integrative Counsellor and psychotherapist. I understand starting therapy can feel daunting, especially if it’s your first time or previous experiences haven’t felt helpful. I’m here to support you in taking that first step. I help people manage anxiety, persistent worrying, and stress-related overwhelm, and support those affected by trauma (CPTSD/PTSD) and life-changing events. I work with clients experiencing bereavement or a loss of identity, helping them regain a sense of self. I have experience supporting a wide range of clients in both organisations and private practice.

I offer a warm, safe space for you to meet yourself in ways you may have not before. Busy lives do not always allow us the time and space to remind ourselves of who we are and what we want. Time in therapy is solely for you, free of judgement and pressure. Time to discover elements that could be causing you to feel stuck, trapped, or fueling unhelpful behaviors' or relationships. I believe that anxiety and depression can be symptoms of wider patterns, issues that are sometimes buried deep within our sub-conscious. By bringing these unknowns into our awareness we can begin to cultivate change and movement.

Do you find yourself repeating the same patterns and behaviours? Perhaps for years, even decades? Is the simple act of getting through the day (and night) becoming unmanageable and overwhelming? Or perhaps you feel numb, stuck, confused even? Perhaps you do not even know where to begin or what you are looking for? Are you finally ready to let go of what no longer serves you and embrace challenge, change, and desire - rejuvenating your relationships not only with others, but with yourself?

I work both online with clients (worldwide) and in person, offering a grounded and integrative approach that combines transpersonal psychotherapy, Internal Family Systems, and psychospiritual perspectives—a personal and professional understanding of relationship ruptures and repairs with neurotypical and neurodivergent relationship structures.

I am inclusive of all genders, sexualities, relationship structures, and spiritual paths. Whether you’re seeking support with psychosexual or relationship issues, life transitions, or a more profound sense of meaning,

Are your relationships difficult or confusing?
Has contact with family broken down, or become fractured?
Feeling disconnected, anxious, and unsure about who you really are?
I specialise in working with people who are troubled by relationship difficulties, family conflict and estrangement, and self-identity - particularly neurodivergence (ADHD, AuDHD and Autism).
Life can get complicated, but clients tell me I reach places other therapists haven't. I'll help you to make sense of your experiences and find a way forward that feels more manageable, and I'll engage with what you bring, not just listen and nod.

Life could be better so much better. I know right? You have this sense that if you could figure some personal complexities out then that fulfillment that eludes you would be within your grasp. Well it can, but sometimes it needs a depth space, one that aligns with your need to go deeper, perhaps you've tried therapy before? I'm not saying I'm an expert but my gift, as others have said, is that I can go there with you and language that which is hard to express. Others say I'm very easy to talk to, that I genuinely care, this isn't a job but a calling, that's my truth - I want to know - I care to know and help you find yourself.

Transpersonal Counsellors
How does transpersonal therapy work?
Transpersonal therapy focuses on a patient’s spirituality and meaning in life. Transpersonal therapists might borrow from Eastern traditions as well as Western psychology. They may incorporate techniques including meditation, visualisation, hypnotherapy, dream analysis, and or breathwork to produce altered states of consciousness. The therapist helps the patient to access their consciousness and spirituality to work through difficult mental states.
How long does transpersonal therapy last?
Because the goal is to understand a person as a whole, including their spirituality, treatment can range from months to a year or beyond. While patients learn the philosophy behind transpersonal therapy during treatment, they can also practice its principles throughout life after therapy sessions have ended.
Is transpersonal therapy effective?
Patients have found success with transpersonal therapy; this method is useful in improving anxiety, depression, self-esteem, identity, fears, relationship problems, and other concerns. Improvements in problem areas can continue even after transpersonal therapy ends, as individuals can utilise the tools they’ve learned during treatment sessions.
What are the limitations of transpersonal therapy?
There is some research on the effectiveness of transpersonal therapy, but empirical support for this therapy approach is sparse. It does not have the robust evidence base of other forms of therapy, such as cognitive behavioural therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy.
