My own experiences of therapy have taught me that my own change and growth became possible when i could open and relax into a felt sense of trust and safety. I appreciate that if you are struggling now or have suffered in the past- to open yourself up to- and risk trusting another might bring mixed feelings of hope and fear. Yet, to take a step into the unknown is the invitation and challenge of therapy. I have been a client; in my experience the risk i took set out upon the adventure of counselling has been an acceptable one and the rewards are great.

Welcome. The therapy relationship can be a powerful space to explore concerns you have been having. It is not unusual to feel nervous or awkward about taking the initial step of seeing a therapist, but end up feeling relieved and pleased at the outcome. I have over 20 years experience in helping people recover the quality of their lives from struggles with mental health. My training is in Counselling Psychology, which means that the therapy process is supported by an understanding of the processes behind different behaviours and how the brain works in relation to mental health.

I find most people like to have balance between talking about the past and concentrating on achieving change in the here and now. I provide a safe space free from judgment, or the need to censor yourself, where you can explore and gain insight into whatever is holding you back from being at peace with who you are and how you live your life.

Having the time and space within counselling to explore your thoughts and feelings in a safe and confidential environment is often the first step in making positive change in someone’s life. Our problems can sometimes feel too big or heavy to carry ourselves. Often it’s hard to pinpoint what’s actually wrong, but that low mood, and anxiety over powers us. Counselling will help you understand your behaviours and emotions that little bit better and give you insight into why you may be finding things difficult. With this understanding, it is often the catalyst for positive change leading to a more balanced and healthy future.

How can I tell if a counsellor is right for me?

If you're seeking a marriage counsellor in Exeter you'll find that most therapists are trained in marriage counselling or couples counselling in Exeter and couples therapy. And they welcome families for family counselling in Exeter or family therapy in Exeter.

How to find a specialist?
You can refine your search using the filters on this page. There are several categories you can filter by to find mental health professionals with the experience you are looking for. You may want to filter for CBT Psychologists in Exeter, or Child Psychologists in Exeter. You can also use the filters to see only female psychologists.

Many find it useful to use filters to view only psychologists that have experience working with certain issues, like Exeter psychologists specialising in anger management, couples counselling, or EMDR.

What method of therapy is right for me?
When it comes to treatment methods, there's no 'right way'. A couples counsellor or a family counsellor may use different techniques depending on the one that works best for you. Learn what to expect from different types of therapy and how they work.
Can I afford counselling?
Yes. Most counsellors offer reasonable rates or will work on a sliding scale basis. Many accept health insurance. Feel free to discuss this when you contact the counsellor.
