Vitality Counselling in Guildford

Carolina Parker Frohlich
Psychotherapist, MUKCP
I work with adults who may be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck or uncertain about their lives. Clients often come to therapy when they are struggling with relationships, stress, burnout, trauma, low self-esteem, life transitions, or patterns that no longer feel helpful. Some may have spent years managing alone and are ready to understand themselves more deeply. Together, we explore your experiences, including how the past may shape the present, in a safe, supportive and non-judgemental space, helping you develop greater resilience, clarity and self-understanding while creating the opportunity for meaningful change.

Warren James Stiles
Psychotherapist, MBACP
Over the years, I've come to appreciate that everyone, regardless of their background, has a unique story that is worthy of being heard and understood. Life, with its unpredictable turns, presents challenges that can sometimes feel insurmountable. My approach to therapy is grounded in empathy, respect, and evidence-based practice. I combine both Psychodynamic Therapy, where I look to understand your childhood to where you are today, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), an integrative approach.

You may be feeling life is just too much to manage right now, perhaps you've had a bereavement or loss, or maybe something from the past is impacting on how you are feeling. Asking for professional help can feel daunting, but once you've made that decision, it can bring relief and then finding the right person, who can hear your concerns and support you, is really important. I can offer a safe, confidential space and give you the time and space to explore what is going on for you, to help you gain awareness and insight into what's troubling you and help you reach your goals.

David Simon Pusey
Counsellor, MBACP
It’s so difficult to pick up a phone and call a stranger. No one wants to feel that they need help... but sometimes we all do. Perhaps you’re facing a decision you can’t settle, a relationship that no longer feels right, or a sense that something is off without being able to say what. Wherever you are, you don’t need to have it all worked out before getting in touch.
