Do you feel like your life has aspects to it that are holding you back from enjoying it more fully? Do you worry that you may be experiencing depression and are unsure about seeking help? Does uncertainty fill you with fear and make you feel anxious or worry a lot about something specific or different things? Do you perhaps feel stuck in a rut because something happened and you just can’t move on from it? Are you an over-thinker or have intrusive thoughts or perhaps experience panic? Do you find yourself getting easily angered or irritated or have habits that are unhelpful or self-sabotaging? I have success in helping with these.

I REGRET THAT I AM CURRENTLY UNABLE TO TAKE FURTHER ENQUIRIES. You may be looking for a counsellor / psychotherapist because you feel low, unmotivated, stuck, confused or anxious. You may be grappling with a difficult situation in your life currently, or with something that has happened to you in the past. Perhaps you struggle with the dynamics in a close relationship or at work. In psychotherapy and counselling we are concerned with your mental and emotional wellbeing. As a psychotherapist I am skilled at working with you to move towards better emotional wellbeing and change.

Psychotherapist, MBABCP

Warmth, empathy, non-judgemental acceptance, scientific rigour and humour are at the heart of my approach to therapy. I follow core CBT traditions which put the client and therapist on an equal footing in a collaborative partnership, with the client as the authoritative expert in themselves. I aim to debunk and demystify, strip out jargon, and explain transparently how I work. CBT aims to give clients a therapeutic fishing rod, not just a fish, so that clients are helped to become CBT experts, their own therapists for the future. Therapy can be challenging, but more often it should be healing, uplifting, enriching and fun.

We have all had a unique and perhaps upsetting experience of a global phenomenon. As you step out into your new normal, you may need some help to process your experiences and how to shape your future within this new landscape. I offer professional support through a variety of theories and techniques to deal with immediate feelings of stress as well as deeper exploration of how historical experiences may have affected your current responses and reactions. It is important that you feel in control of your own therapeutic journey and I therefore offer support at your individual pace and to support your hopes and aspirations.

Hi, I'm Laura, a CBT & EMDR Therapist & mother of three. I’m on a mission to empower mothers and remind them how important it is to nurture and care for themselves as well as their children. Focussing on mental health and wellbeing, I support mums and mums-to-be on their journey to and through motherhood. Whether it’s your first time or your fifth, bringing a baby into the world is a huge transition. Yes, it’s precious and beautiful, but it can be overwhelming and utterly soul-destroying at times. Wherever you are on your journey, and whatever you’re dealing with, I’m here to guide you through these feelings and out the other side.

Worried for you, someone close to you or your child? Counselling can help. You or they may be facing issues from the past or present and feeling anxious, depressed or angry or be having relationship or self confidence problems or perhaps be struggling with a bereavement. Life can throw obstacles in our path and at times we may need some extra support. Having a safe place and support to be able to unravel worries and make sense of feelings leads to healthier ways of thinking and coping. Greater self awareness helps us choose to make changes or accept things as they are and find ways to live with a greater sense of well being.

One way to think about looking after your mental health is like servicing a car. You need the right specialist to identify and treat specific problems to get back on the road safely. I am an experienced, part-time lead clinical psychologist in an early intervention psychosis team. I offer an excellent understanding of why your problems have not gone away and how to intervene effectively. I work with anxiety disorders (social, OCD, panic, GAD), PTSD, depression and other problems. I target factors (e.g. fear of failure, fear of the unknown) that fuel multiple issues. Your quality of life can be damaged by how you think about things.

If you are reading this there is a chance that you (or someone you know) may be experiencing some emotional difficulties. In my personal experience, counselling and psychotherapy can help with a wide range of problems related to life and living. Many of us don't know why we feel unhappy, lacking in confidence or generally anxious. Some experience anxiety in relation to situations where other people seem to cope without a problem. Sitting down with a trained therapist can help alleviate distress as well as uncover the self-defeating patterns we may have stumbled into as a consequence of life's events.

Life can be challenging. We can be hit by the breakdown of a relationship or friendship, a bereavement, a traumatic event, a serious medical diagnosis, work-related stress, or many other upsetting life events. Sometimes we suffer such strong feelings, and become so stuck, that we can’t see how to get life back on track. We can’t see how to make any progress, how to deal with our emotions, how to solve our problems. Counselling can help by allowing you a safe space in which to explore your thoughts and feelings without feeling judged or rushed. It can help you discover what is going on for you, and enable you to take more control.

Life for children, young people and families can be really challenging, a fact that has only been made worse by the pandemic. seeking counselling or therapy for your child or yourself can be a really scary task, but it can also help to resolve the issues that many young people and families face every day. I am currently offering online sessions only. I have a virtual therapy room that is suitable for children aged 3-18. This is a highly effective tool and replicates the 'in person' therapy experience, meaning your child isn't missing out by working online.

I work with adults and young people (18 and over) on issues relating to anxiety, depression, grief and loss (especially complicated grief - an ongoing, heightened state of mourning that keeps you from healing), race identity issues and have worked for a number of years supporting families with a diagnosis in their children of autism spectrum condition.
