There are many reasons why people seek time and space to talk and reflect. You might want to talk about thoughts and feelings that are difficult to discuss with others, or consider what has happened to bring you to this point in your life. This can be a space for exploration and discovery, a protected hour in which you will be listened to. My focus is on listening openly, without judgment, to whatever you bring. I will listen to your experiences and your point of view and together we can look at different perspectives which can help you to live more freely.

Hello, I’m Vivienne, I’m a qualified counsellor who works with the LGBTQIA+ community. As a queer woman with a mixed heritage background, I work in a way that looks at how the different identities you might hold can impact you. People have their own unique experiences of discrimination and oppression and that matters to me.

I am experienced in helping clients to deal with anxiety, relationships, trauma, motivational difficulties and questions of purpose and meaning. Clients may also be struggling with feelings about self and about others. Often these feelings can be traced back into childhood experiences which have not been properly processed. Much of my work is helping clients to relieve a sense of being trapped by unhelpful patterns of emotional response and behaviours. Together, we can process past experiences in order to better see the way forward.

Hello, I'm Leanne, a senior Clinical Psychologist and trauma specialist offering psychotherapy with heart. I create a warm, safe and nurturing environment for clients to heal from difficult experiences and trauma from the past in order to have greater well-being in the future.

In the words of John O'Donohue 'May there be kindness in your gaze when you look within.'

I work in Bristol, offering a compassionate and confidential space in which to explore feelings and experiences at a pace which suits you. You may come with specific things that you would like to talk about, or you may struggle to articulate what you're feeling and why. Psychotherapy offers a space to uncover those difficult feelings and for you to be fully heard, perhaps for the first time. It is my belief that this kind of therapy can lead us into greater understanding and acceptance of ourselves, which in turn provides the opportunity for freedom and change.

It’s when you sense, or realise, that things can’t remain the same and yet you feel frozen, unable to act, and you don’t know what to do. A personal crisis might leave you feeling powerless and anxious. Then you find that the ways in which you generally deal with problems aren’t working: the people you’d usually turn to for support aren’t enough, they might be too involved with the issues you’re facing. You might also feel unwell. It’s not uncommon to feel anxious, depressed or emotionally fragile. This is when counselling can help. I offer Face to Face, Walk and Talk, Online and Telephone Counselling.

You may be considering therapy in the hope of something better. Life might be feeling like a real struggle now or maybe has for a while. There may be difficult feelings like anxiety, a lack of interest in things coupled with challenges in your intimate relationships or at work. You may have a very specific issue that you would like to explore, or a general sense of ill-being and things not feeling quite right. Whatever is bringing you here is both unique to you and your story, and very human. Therapy can offer a place where those painful feelings and thoughts are not only welcome, but seen as offering a catalyst for change.

Hello, I'm Jenny, an accredited CBT/REBT therapist based in Bristol, in practice for six years. My approach to therapy is focused on equipping my clients to achieve their goals, and I'm a big believer in people’s ability to change their own situations once they're supported in doing so. I see my job as being to help my clients see the power and agency they have over how they experience their lives, where many feel stuck, helpless, or like 'victims of circumstance'. I'm especially interested in working with anxiety, phobias, and anger.
