"Many people seek a sense of peace and balance in their lives. You may experience emotional issues causing distress or you wish to make important changes in your life. Perhaps you have a desire to develop greater balance and calm in your daily life. I work with individuals, couples and families of all ages and ability with a non-judgemental, collaborative approach to help you nurture, grow, and prosper. For specific goals we find the right steps for you to achieve the success you seek. My focus is on your strength and resilience in helping you to overcome difficulties, resolve past issues, plan for today, and improve your future."

"A warm welcome to my profile. I am an integrative counsellor who facilitates a safe, confidential space for you to navigate through any issues you may wish to bring. "

"I find the focus of my work is people themselves rather than the specific issues they might initially arrive with: often people come to talk about one aspect of their lives and end up working on something completely different or they might feel unhappy or dissatisfied with their lives without being sure why. By developing a good relationship we can work together to explore what's going on and find a way to becoming happier and more fulfilled. The most important thing I do is provide a safe space, listen without judgement and offer insights/reflections that might help: many clients have told me they feel that I understand them."

"Did something happened to you and since then you don't feel like yourself? I help people take their power back after a difficult experience has changed them to the point of not being able to cope in a particular area of their lives. You might struggle with anxiety and overthinking, isolation, irritability or bursts of uncontrollable anger. These might be signs that you need to resolve some past difficulty (trauma, break-up, death of a loved one...). Talking therapy can help. I used a person-centred approach informed by psychodynamic and attachment theories, offering you mindfulness & body-awareness tools for grounding & calming."

"Hello, my name is Debbie and I would like the chance for us to work together. I am discreet and confidential. I understand how important that part of the service is for you, when you seek out a therapist. Why choose me? Because I know I can help you, there is nothing about you, that will stop me wanting to work with you. I can offer home visits for those that need a more tailored service. Please do not feel you are alone, let me hear your voice. I will give you permission to grieve, I will let you cry, I will let you talk freely. Let me have one hour out of your whole week, for you to have time for you. Let me worry about you."

"If you are seeking the opportunity to talk matters though in a non judgemental and safe environment, I provide the support and understanding to empower you to consider the issues you wish to explore. Working together to help you gain a deeper understanding of yourself and why you are experiencing the difficulties that you have. Enabling you to develop new methods of coping with these difficulties. We will explore patterns in your thoughts and behaviours which will help you to gain a sense of control and stability in your everyday life. I offer face to face, and skype sessions. I am a registered member of the BACP, NCS and ACTO."

"“Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?” (Mary Oliver) We all have hopes and dreams for our lives, yearning for loving relationships, a sense of belonging, meaning, purpose and achievement. When these dreams and longings are suppressed or disappointed, we feel a deep-seated sense of despair, anger and anxiety. Some people have experienced these emotions throughout their lives, feeling unable to experience a true sense of connection and belonging. For other people a sudden life event or transition to a new phase of life can trigger a crisis, highlighting what is missing in our lives."

"I work with a diverse range of clients who bring all sorts of different problems. My main focus is relationship issues, but I also frequently work with anxiety, depression, bereavement, stress, anger, etc. I work with individuals, couples, and people in polyamorous relationships. I offer my clients the opportunity to explore their issues in a safe, non-judgmental environment, to help them achieve their goals. I do face to face work, and online counselling, and offer both short term and long term therapy."

"I currently work in the NHS, for a local psychotherapy and counselling charity and in private practice which gives me a wide range of clinical experience. Since qualifying in 2014 I have joined an Msc programme at the University of Exeter in Psychodynamic/psychoanalytic psychotherapy which has deepened and expanded my interest and understanding. I hope to continue training in this field for the foreseeable future alongside my clinical work; always interested in learning more and wanting to contribute to the academic sphere."

"If you’re feeling anxious or distressed, talking to someone who is really listening - sincerely and without judgement - can help. I work in an integrative way, adapting my approach to meet the needs of my clients. "

"I am a very experienced psychotherapist, counsellor and supervisor based in both central Exeter and Silverton. I provide a confidential, safe and impartial space where you can talk about difficult thoughts or emotional issues. I specialise in working with my clients to improve their quality of life and relationships. My role in offering both counselling and psychotherapy is to help you make sense of what you are experiencing, develop the skills to know and accept yourself and to make changes that are right for you."

"The therapeutic space that client and therapist build together is an open space where thoughts, feelings and behaviours can be looked at in an accepting and allowing, as well as real and honest way. Doing so can help with issues such as depression, anxiety, bereavement, anger, relationship problems as well as less easily identifiable feelings such as existential insecurity or a general sense of meaninglessness. It can be difficult to talk to those close to you as they often, understandably, struggle to remain impartial."

"Hello my name is Rachel and I offer counselling and therapy for adults. Sometimes we want to talk to someone in private about our thoughts and worries and counselling can offer a safe space for this to happen. I offer a warm, gentle, non-judgemental and compassionate approach. I have worked as a therapist for over ten years within the NHS and the private healthcare sector. I recognise that each person has their own unique life story and for many coming to therapy for the first time may feel uncomfortable. I aim to provide a calm therapeutic space for your voice to be heard, whilst also encouraging you to explore new ways forward."

"I am a down to earth, straight talking counsellor, with many years experience working in bereavement and loss. I also work with those who have someone significant in their life who is dying. My other area of interest is trauma, whether this be as a result of domestic abuse or historical trauma from childhood and can offer long term support for those who may wish to work through these difficult issues. "

"You may simply be looking to create a reflective space in your week to look and think differently about your current situation and life. Or maybe you want to work collaboratively in a focussed and goal-oriented way on improving wellbeing, strengthening your self-care strategies or understanding and managing stress and anxiety better. I consider myself to be kind, compassionate and gently challenging and aim to create an environment in which clients can move towards changing their lives for the better, learning new skills and gaining insight. "

"I aim to assist you to make positive changes and move forward with your life. I am experienced in working with people who have struggled with feelings such as anxiety, anger, fear and loss. I will help you to understand your thoughts and feelings so that you can identify what needs to change, and work with you to find ways to overcome your difficulties using methods of working that suit you."

"As human beings we are all faced with the stresses of daily life, the ups and downs of relationships, the disappointments and painful experiences that life can throw up for us. It can be difficult, at times, to make sense of thoughts and feelings or to consider what might be the best way forward. There may be a specific concern or problem that requires focussed attention or, for some, events of the past or early experience may continue to impact of their sense of wellbeing and self-worth. For others there may be a curiosity to understand more about themselves and a desire to engage with and live life more fully. "
