These symptoms can then cause anxiety, depression, overwhelming feelings of anger and frustration, numbness, lack of sleep, relationship difficulties, substance use, isolation and sadly in some cases suicidal thoughts and attempts.. does any of these sound familiar? Then keep reading see if you think I could be the right fit for you

Empowering men to navigate life's challenges with confidence and clarity. Talking Spaces is an accessible counselling specialist service for men’s mental health, available in person or via Zoom. Generally men by nature are more action focused, so when it comes to managing difficult life events and emotions I use action and solution based therapeutic approaches and interventions when working with men’s mental health issues. Men need a service with the knowledge understand that social and cultural norms and ingrained beliefs about masculinity are one of the main barriers to seeking counselling in the first place.

It can be exceptionally tough to start looking for therapy, and I'm proud of you for doing so today. As both a practicing therapist and as someone who has healed and grown in therapy myself, I know how it feels to be in both chairs in the therapy office. If you are looking for somewhere to create meaning in your life, you are feeling lost or hopeless, or you are seeking emotional support, please get in touch. I’m offering therapy exclusively through Skype, Zoom, and by phone, depending on your preference. While I plan to be back in the office to see people face-to-face when it is safe to do so, I am also excited to see you online!

Hi, we’re Faye and Becki! Here at F&B Therapy, we provide evidence-based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy via typed messaging. We provide treatments for a number of psychological difficulties, drawing on up-to-date methods and approaches, whilst catering to the person as an individual. We have worked in NHS-funded services for many years and know that waiting lists can be long and sessions limited. How and when you speak to your therapist can also be limited to traditional offers of daytime working hours or via an office, which isn't the preferred method for everyone.

I am a Psychological Therapist specialising in solution focused therapy. If you are seeking change and positive growth such as developing confidence or healthy self-esteem, we will work strategically to move you towards your goals. Creating a stronger sense of who you are and what you want, will help you to move forward with your life. Many life experiences, however simple or traumatic, can keep us stuck; we will explore and address what needs to be released, healed and developed in order to align you with your most authentic self and best life. My work is a complete integrated approach to mind/body/spirit wellness.

I'm an integrative, trauma-informed counsellor, based County Durham. I work 1-1 with adults in person and remotely. I have a relational and collaborative approach, meeting clients with understanding and warmth, providing a safe space where feelings, thoughts and behaviours can be explored. My practice is inclusive and respectful. I am an LGBTQ+ allied and neurodiversity affirming therapist. I have a particular interest in sexual violence, domestic abuse and loss. I am also a qualified breathwork facilitator and EFT practitioner.

People come to therapy for many reasons. It may be that they are feeling stressed, anxious or depressed and they are having difficulty coping. Sometimes people just want to explore how their past continues to influence their present. Therapy can help us understand ourselves more, engage with ourselves and others more positively and move on in our lives. I believe in the core principles of Transactional Analysis that: People are OK; Everyone has the capacity to think; and People decide their own destiny and these decisions can be changed.
