Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) Counselling in Bristol
Relationships, work and life can feel overwhelming and unmanageable when we feel like we do not know where to turn. Anxiety can build, making even small challenges feel out of control, causing stress and depressive episodes. I offer a calm and peaceful space where you can offload, feel listened to and supported, whilst growing in self-awareness and confidence which can feel empowering.
I work with both adults and young people.

Hello, I’m a HCPC-registered Art Psychotherapist with 10 years’ of experience working for the NHS and privately with both adults and young people.
I have spent eight years working in NHS crisis services, alongside two years as a Primary Mental Health Specialist.
My work is trauma-informed and grounded in building a safe, trusting therapeutic relationship—shown through research to be the most important factor in effective all therapeutic interventions.
Once this foundation is established, I draw from an integrative approach tailored to your needs.
Although I am an art therapist I very often work with people through talk only.

I'm a compassionate and pragmatic therapist with experience treating a range of conditions, including anxiety disorders, depression, OCD (using ERP) and PTSD.
Are you caring for others and burned out from the constant responsibility and anxiety? You may be juggling life with a child with SEN, a partner with mental health difficulties, or an elderly parent with declining health. Caring for a loved one can take a huge emotional and physical toll, often leaving you anxious, drained, or low in mood while putting your own needs last. If you are trapped in cycles of worry, guilt and overthinking, CBT can help you understand the patterns keeping you stuck and develop healthier ways of coping.

Hi, I’m Ash, a Clinical Psychologist and trainee EMDR therapist with experience supporting people through trauma, anxiety, shame, psychosis, addiction, and relationship difficulties.
I’ve worked across NHS, community, and inpatient settings with individuals, couples, and families. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based therapies.
I value working with people from diverse identities, cultures, and backgrounds, and offer a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your experiences at a pace that feels right for you, online or in person.

If you are struggling, it is with trauma, your relationships, grief, depression, addiction, or something else, I offer a private and confidential space to explore your problems and concerns at a pace of your choosing.
I provide psychotherapy which looks at the causes of our current problems as well as at our patterns of thinking and relating to ourselves and others. These patterns often have their roots in our past and in the ways we have survived and navigated our lives to this point.

Counselling is a safe space where you can talk about problems and process difficult emotions without shame or judgement. We often feel that we should be able to deal with our problems without others help. But it is often through sharing and opening up to others, that we can find the way to heal ourselves. Trauma, mental or emotional problems, disconnect us from ourselves and others. Sharing our pain and our story (in a relationship where it is held safely) can allow us to value, respect and have compassion for all parts of ourselves. This re-integration unblocks our creative/healing potential and our sense of purpose and meaning.

Whatever brings you to therapy, I offer a confidential, non-judgmental space where what you are suffering from can be spoken about, and where you can be listened to in a new way. By putting into words things which may have been unspoken before, it can be possible for something about this suffering to change, and for different ways of doing things to become available.

I completed my Doctorate in Clinical Psychology in 2004 and have worked in NHS adult psychological therapies services since that time.

My core aim as a counsellor is to provide a warm and consistent space for you to feel heard and understood. We have many parts within us that need a listening ear, and open heart. When we find acceptance and compassion for ourselves, things can start to change in our lives. I offer kindness, non-judgement, and curiosity so that you can begin to feel resilient and self-loving. Each of us is born with inherent wisdom and we are our own best expert. But you may have lost trust along the way. I strive to offer you a nurturing, therapeutic relationship that encourages a sense of safety to trust.

I work with a range of issues from trauma, self harm, PTSD, anxiety, depression, OCD and grief.
Hi, I’m an experienced Psychodynamic therapist and I presently work with adults and students privately and within the education sector. I understand that life can be challenging and it's not always easy to talk about our issues. I provide a safe and supportive environment where you can explore your feelings and gain insight into your life. Psychodynamic therapy focuses on unconscious processes as they are manifested in a person's present behaviour. It emphasises the importance of the individual's personal history and the role that past experiences play in current behaviour.

I work with both individuals and couples. As an individual, some sudden event may have thrown you into crisis and challenged your ability to cope. This might include, a difficulty in a relationship; a loss/bereavement of some kind; or a change that has resulted in stress/anxiety and a feeling of being destabilised. Alternatively you may be suffering from a more general, on-going struggle to see any direction or purpose. A feeling of being disconnected from yourself and others and of there being very little enjoyment in your life.

You might feel overwhelmed, stuck in patterns you can’t seem to break, or exhausted from trying to cope on your own. Whether you are living with the impact of trauma, struggling with addiction, or navigating the challenges of ADHD, it can feel isolating and difficult to know where to turn. My aim is to help you feel more in control, more connected to yourself, and more able to move forward with confidence. Reaching out can feel like a big step, but it can also be the beginning of meaningful and lasting change. I offer a free 30 minute session to get to know one another and sessions cost between £40-60 each from there on.

Additionally I specialise in:
OCD,
Neurodivergent adults, parents of children with additional needs, partners of adults on the autism spectrum.
Sometimes difficulties can have a major impact on our well-being, relationships or work. Maybe friends and family can offer some support but we may also choose to see a qualified and experienced practitioner, who can provide a safe space in which to work with whatever is going on for us. I have a wide range of experience, including working in the NHS, at university as Associate Lecturer (14 years) and in a GP practice as a Lead Therapist and Supervisor, delivering Relational Integrative Therapy. I draw on Psychodynamic and Person-Centred approaches, Internal Family Systems (IFS), relational CBT and CFT (Compassion-Focussed Therapy).

People come to therapy for many different reasons. You may be struggling with anxiety or depression, difficulties in relationships, questions about identity, the experience of becoming a parent, or a persistent sense that something in life is not quite working.
