Bereavement Counselling in Hexham

Hi, I'm Wendy. How are you doing? Having taken the courageous step to look for help, I'm guessing the answer to that is: 'Not great'. Are you feeling like your life has lost direction, suffering a loss in your life, or struggling with emotions that the current pandemic situation has brought to the forefront of your mind? I believe that we all have the innate ability to realise our full potential and live our best life. With the right help, you can take back control of your life.

Are you stressed, depressed, anxious, sad or just not feeling yourself? Then counselling might be something that can help you, whether it is a new concern or a long held one. Sometimes emotional pain or life events can temporarily cloud your ability to see possible solutions, leaving you feeling stuck, confused, unhappy, anxious, sad or even shut down. The process of talking about this can gradually make things seem clearer as you make sense of your feelings and your thoughts become more ordered. You can feel change taking place, sometimes to your own surprise and so start to find a way forward that feels right for you.

Counselling offers a confidential space to offload and gain helpful tools to make sense of the situation and find a way forward.

Hello, I am Natalie, I am an Integrative Psychotherapist. Outside my private practice, I lead a Counselling Service in Northumberland for the ageing population. My private practice is an online and digital counselling service. I provide a completely remote counselling service, in which I facilitate telephone and online counselling. I specialise in support for those living with chronic illness. grief specialism, stress, anxiety, depression. I also provide specialist support in dealing with work place issues. We will look at what you want to achieve from therapy and how I can support you through this.

For me and my practice, it is really important to understand and acknowledge the complexity of every individuals experience. I endeavour to do this by holding an open mind and creating a safe boundaried space in which we can both get to know you better. I encorporate a range of theories and skills in order to best facilitate your individual process and needs. Within my practice I work with a range of issues such as anxiety & depression, sexual abuse, trauma, sexuality exploration, gender, anger, loss, illness and body image. I am currently working online.

I offer a space where you can feel safe and free to talk about the issues that you are currently facing, knowing that what you say is confidential, and will not be judged. Are you suffering from problems that are hindering you from actively enjoying life? I work with you to find a deeper understanding of what may be causing these problems, working towards raising awareness of why you feel the way you do. This will enable you to make changes in your life and increase your sense of wellbeing.

My name is Dr Clark Davison and I am a Consultant Clinical Psychologist with experience working within the NHS and private sector at a senior level.

Do you feel that despite efforts to improve your life, the way you are feeling continues to have a negative impact on your mood, motivation, relationships and how you cope with everyday life? Perhaps you are experiencing a sense of hopelessness that things may never improve as a result of having felt this way for a long time? These could be signs that your mental health needs are enduring and deep-rooted. I am Petra Carlsson-Mitchell, a Clinical Psychologist and through my practice INPSYCHOLOGY, I specialise in psychological treatments for mental health concerns at the moderate to complex end of the mental health continuum.

I am a Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years' experience across the NHS, an international university and, since 2018, in my own independent practice. I am professionally regulated by the HCPC. I use my training and experience to help me empower you to understand better what's been going on for you, (as an individual and in relationship to others), what you value and why, and how to use this understanding to support the actions you want to take to make a difference in your life.

Any of us can feel stuck, sad, lost and seemingly unable to move forward. Making sense of these feelings is critical to our both physical and emotional wellbeing. Impact Wellbeing works with you :an individual, a group, a team to explore ways to positively impact your world. Something small can appear to have led to a spiralling out of control by you /someone you care for /work with; you may feel unable to understand why someone self harms ; making sense of why someone took or tried to take their life by suicide, and there are few places to go to; we are here to help you make sense. What impacts your wellbeing matters.

The most important aspect of my practice is the relationship between myself and you, the client. I aim to create a safe, approachable environment to ease the building of trust and an understanding of one another and help you to feel comfortable enough to share and explore whatever you are experiencing. My therapeutic approach as an Integrative Counsellor, enables me to work from a Person Centred perspective with the adaptability to use other therapeutic approaches. This means that you, the client have control over how our sessions are carried out, your perspective, your story, and your lived experience are highly valued.

I share my time between private practice and working as a Consultant Clinical Psychologist in the NHS. Whilst I typically work with clients who are experiencing anxiety or low mood, I have a special interest in Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder (EUPD). I have extensive experience working in adult mental health and I am qualified in Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Dialectic Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR). I hold clinics in the evenings in Jesmond.

There are many reasons why you may be seeking out a therapist to help with the issues you face in your life. You may be experiencing distressing feelings; you may be approaching important crossroads in life and you’re faced with uncertainty; you may feel like your confidence or self-esteem is low. It may also be something more difficult to put your finger on – you may have an unnameable sense that something just isn’t right with your internal world and you want to make a change. You may be wondering what it is that I can do to help, so let's start there...

Life can be difficult. It throws up challenges, changes and conflicts. These can be within ourselves, or in our relationships and work, or from living in a worrying world. Counsellors work together with people who are faced with troubles, burdens and questions and seek to help them find a better place to be. Whatever the source of the problem I believe that counselling has the potential to help. People can talk to someone who will not judge them but listen to them carefully and supportively. Counsellors can also go a little deeper and use a range of techniques which may be of help.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, experiencing low mood or self esteem, or generally just struggling with life at the moment? Do your feelings, thoughts and emotions feel all mixed up, like a tangled ball of wool? We can work together to untangle it. I provide a safe, non judgemental space for you to explore your thoughts feelings and emotions, together w find a way to see a clearer path for what you want and need out of life. I work with both adults and teenagers. I have over 4 years experience of counselling and run a successful private practice. I am now offering Menopause and Bereavement coaching.
