You might be navigating relationship difficulties, life changes, or the impact of an upbringing where your emotional needs weren't always met. You may feel stuck, frustrated, unheard, or find yourself people-pleasing, struggling to set boundaries, or repeating relationship patterns that don't feel good. Together, we can gently explore these challenges, helping you develop greater self-understanding, healthier boundaries, and more fulfilling relationships. I also have a special interest in working with life transitions, such as bereavement or illness, and spirituality. However, this is not an exhaustive list; feel free to enquire.

I’m a clinical psychologist who works with adults experiencing a range of emotional and psychological difficulties. Perhaps you’re struggling with anxiety, low mood, stress, or you’re finding it hard to adjust to changes in your health, relationships or circumstances.

I am a psychotherapist and supervisor (offering low cost supervision) working in Bristol and online.
As a therapist, working in an embodied way is central to my practice. Bringing awareness into the body can create a sense of grounded safety in therapy and can help clients to deepen into what they are exploring. I also draw on psychological theories on how we have been shaped by experience in childhood.

You may be a parent or carer feeling worried, exhausted, or stuck, unsure how best to support your child. Your child might be experiencing big emotions, behaviours that feel challenging, anxiety, low mood, sleep or eating difficulties—often alongside Autism, ADHD, learning or physical disabilities. Daily life may feel unpredictable or overwhelming, affecting the whole family. You want to understand what’s really behind these difficulties, feel more confident in your responses, and help your child feel safer, calmer, and more able to thrive, so family life can feel more manageable and hopeful again.

Hi, I’m Leah. I’m an integrative counsellor and coach.
A lot of the people I work with are capable, thoughtful and outwardly doing well, while privately feeling exhausted, overwhelmed or stuck. You may have spent years being told that you are strong, capable or resilient, whilst feeling very different on the inside. You may be navigating a major life change, experiencing burnout, or simply reaching a point where the way you have been doing things no longer feels sustainable.

As a Trauma Neuropsychologist, I have been working with people who experienced trauma in their life, supporting adjustment and coping with the effects of the resulting neurological and health conditions they experience. I have specialised in brain injury and physical trauma rehabilitation and helped clients making sense of what have happened to them and how to be able to meet the values they are no longer able to reach. People who experience anxiety and depression following trauma often get stuck, do not recognise themselves and become unable to find meaning in a life that feels lost to them. A new path needs to be found.

My approach is particularly supportive for people dealing with health-related sexual concerns - such as erectile dysfunction, hormonal changes, chronic pain conditions, or the sexual impacts of illness, medication, or surgery.

Whether you’re feeling disconnected from your body, struggling with low desire, dealing with performance anxiety, or healing after injury or illness, I provide a non-judgmental space to explore and move forward at your pace.

I'm Hannah and I am an integrative therapist specialising in using eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy to treat a wide range of psychological issues. I am highly trained in psychotherapy, neuroscience and trauma and believe that our current issues can often be traced back to early adverse experiences in childhood. Compared to standard talking therapy EMDR generally takes a shorter amount of time to get to the root cause of the issue. Rather than just dealing with symptom management (like CBT), EMDR therapy works directly with the cause of your distress.

I'm a psychodynamic therapist and clinical supervisor working in Bath, Bristol, and online. I offer a quiet, confidential space where you can begin to make sense of what's troubling you — without pressure or judgement.
Much of what brings people to therapy has its roots in earlier experiences: the relationships we grew up in, the ways we learned to cope, the parts of ourselves we've kept hidden. My work is about gently exploring those patterns together, so that over time, things can begin to feel different.
All of my work is trauma-informed, shaped by my experience working in a specialist trauma centre.

Do you find yourself anxious, on edge or suddenly hit by panic, flashbacks or memories you can't shake? Maybe you avoid certain places, struggle with shame, or notice your body reacting long after something happened.

Perhaps you've tried CBT or talking therapy and understand why you're struggling, but your reactions still return. I'm Sebastien, an EMDR therapist and integrative psychotherapist offering online therapy across the UK.

Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Counsellors
When should someone seek treatment for a traumatic brain injury?
People should seek a diagnosis and treatment after a head injury, especially if they were unconscious, and an early diagnosis can lead to a better recovery. Signs of a concussion include headaches, nausea or vomiting, exhaustion, dizziness, vision problems, sensitivity to light and sound, problems with attention and memory, brain fog, unusual irritability or sadness, and unusual sleep patterns.
What’s the most common treatment for a traumatic brain injury?
Treatment for a traumatic brain injury will be different depending on the severity of the problem. For mild injuries, treatment may involve rest and over-the-counter pain or headache medication. For moderate or severe injuries, treatment may involve stabilisation, medication, and rehabilitative therapies such as physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, cognitive therapy, and counselling.
How long does it take to recover from traumatic brain injury?
The recovery time for a traumatic brain injury depends on the individual and the severity and nature of the injury; the length of time spent unconscious is often an indicator of severity. Recovery time for mild injuries may be a week or two while recovery time for more severe injuries may be six months to two years. Research suggests that the vast majority of recovery occurs in the first two years after an injury; recovery after that time frame is less certain.
What if a traumatic brain injury is left untreated?
If a traumatic brain injury is left untreated, it can lead to long-term physical and mental health problems. Physical problems may include dizziness, headaches, vision, healing, or speech loss, and an elevated risk of dementia. Psychological problems may include impairments of memory, judgment, and decision-making, depression, aggression, poor impulse control, and personality changes.
