Counselling in Cheltenham

Everyone faces challenges, dilemmas, fears, problems and issues in their lives. Sometimes we can manage to cope. Sometimes our usual coping methods don't seem to work. We find ourselves struggling and we need someone to talk to, someone who will listen and to somewhere we can talk about our feelings and thoughts and to explore opportunities for change - to get our lives back on track again.

I am a BACP registered Psychotherapist and have been working with clients since 2013.

I have completed specialised training for providing psychotherapy.

I offer open-ended, long-term psychotherapy and time-limited, short-term counselling. Together, we can untangle troublesome thoughts and emotions, developing strategies to manage and triumph over roadblocks and reconnect with joy. We will work in a safe, non-judgmental, empathetic space. We will call upon your innate resources and empower you to live the life you desire - and deserve and discuss the skills needed to achieve the goals you set yourself.

I'm a BACP registered counsellor and integrative psychotherapist based in Monmouth, South Wales.

We live in a fast paced fragmented society in which it’s vital to have space to be really listened to & understood. We all need time & space to voice our deepest fears & anxieties in a safe & confidential environment. I offer integrated therapy with the person centred approach at its core: we all have innate ability to find our way through the maze of life; counselling can really help individuals to appreciate & understand their own personal strengths. As a qualified clinical hypnotherapist, I use hypnotherapy to back up my counselling practice; it is invaluable for a myriad of presenting issues from anxiety & phobias to addictions.

Hi, I'm an integrative counsellor/therapist, I'm an accredited MBACP Reg. and MNCS Reg. therapist. I offer 1:1 therapy, couples therapy and family therapy via zoom or face to face appointments in my private practice. It can feel quite daunting to see a counsellor, so I provide an initial free 50 minute in-take session for you to discuss your issues and any concerns you may have about your counselling journey. The in-take session will give the opportunity for me the counsellor and you the client, time to explore what you want from this process. Then together we can decide if you want to continue the proccess as me as your therapist.

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.

The key to out well-being and health is within us, I help clients to unleash the mind and release its full potential. Enabling clients to pinpoint and release limiting beliefs and negative patterns of self-dialogue. Work covered for individuals, couples, teenagers and children from four upwards. Counselling and Hypnotherapy are a very personal exploration, I want to make sure that you understand that you will be provided with a safe space, complete confidentiality and all issues can be examined in a non-judgmental manner.

Are you feeling lost or misunderstood? Do you have days when it feels like it's a bit too much to cope with? Some of us may experience anxiety, a disorientation and concerns about our overall mental well-being. Some also may be feeling the negative impact on family relationships, while some may be struggling with jobs and finances.

Life is difficult. Do more, be more. Be what others want. I offer a space where we examine where you are in life, what's brought you here, what it's like being you and you in relation to others, and how you're contributing to where you're at. How will we do this? Through our relationship, where I'll offer support, care, empathy and challenge to help you examine life.

Hi, my name is Rimpy Sandhu. I have been working as a volunteer as well as in my private practice as a counsellor and psychotherapist for 10 years . I know it can be very scary and difficult to talk about your issues, revisit those painful memories. Sometimes it’s hard to recognise and express your own feelings. I offer a professional, supportive, confidential, nonjudgmental and ethical therapy in order to help with your presenting issues. Counselling helps you to understand yourself and to find coping strategies to deal with the day to day difficulties you might be facing.

While I work mainly in an existential and phenomenological way I also use a range of techniques, including CBT, EMDR, Mindfulness, FLASH and Brainspotting. I provide a safe, non-judgmental space for adults, children, couples and families where we can work on understanding the situation you are in and how to make changes in your life. Whether you're experiencing anxiety, depression or coping with bereavement, therapy will be tailor-made for your situation. I work with neurotypical and neurodiverse clients struggling with ADHD, autism, dyslexia, self-harm or bullying.
