I offer psychotherapy grounded in Transactional Analysis and relational work.
Are you feeling stuck in repeating patterns, struggling in relationships, or living with anxiety, low self-esteem, or emotional overwhelm? You may feel disconnected from yourself, unsure of your needs or boundaries, or carrying emotional weight from earlier experiences. Ideas around respect, duty, or loyalty may make it hard to express feelings or prioritise your wellbeing. You may be seeking clarity, confidence, and healthier ways of relating, wanting deeper understanding so you can feel more balanced, emotionally connected, and more at ease within yourself.

Hi, I’m Linzi, a qualified, compassionate therapist in Hull, and I hope to have the privilege of hearing your story, and offering a warm, accepting, and safe space for you to feel heard and supported, and where you can truly be yourself. If you're feeling stuck in the same painful cycles, whether that be doubting your value, battling anxiety, or feeling weighed down by sadness, I want you to know that you are not alone in this, and there is hope. Healing begins not with ‘fixing’ these parts of you, but with being gently witnessed and supported in all that you carry.

Starting therapy can be such a challenging and confusing time - I know it was for me, yet it completely changed my life! I personally don't believe there is an 'ideal client', I believe that anyone who is brave enough to start therapy, even if they're a little sceptical, can benefit from the experience. I believe that the key to growth is simply being open to self-exploration, with someone who cares about your best interest. I know how important working with a therapist that is right for you is, which is why I offer a free telephone consultation to help you decide if I would be right for you.

The decision to have counselling is a really brave one, and it might be difficult to know if it’s the right time for you. You can have counselling for all sorts of reasons, and there’s no such thing as a right or wrong one. You might be feeling overwhelmed or anxious; perhaps you’ve experienced a bereavement or a relationship breakdown, or you might not know what the reason is, and that is okay. Sometimes therapy is difficult, and it can bring up things that are hard to face, but you don’t have to do so alone.

Diploma in Psychotherapy ( Transactional Analysis) Ellesmere Centre 2020 ; Diploma in Occupational Therapy 2006 , Poland
Acknowledging that you need to talk to someone else other than a family member or a friend is the first step, which can be very challenging. I understand it takes courage to share your vulnerable parts with someone you don’t know but I also believe that it can be very powerful, and a life changing experience. In my work I provide a space, where you can discover things about yourself you perhaps haven’t been aware of before. I am passionate about connecting with an inner child we sometimes dismiss or forget about due to demands, and responsibilities that life brings.

Hello, my name is Jezz. Taking the first step into therapy can feel daunting. It’s common to wonder whether you’re “ready” or whether therapy is really for you. However, you don’t need to have the right words or a clear plan—just a willingness to begin.

I understand how daunting the idea of therapy can be. It takes great courage to take that first step to reach out and ask for help. I believe that the therapeutic journey can be an amazing, enriching, life-changing experience which helps us to make sense of ourselves, identify blocks to change and start to make small changes that can make a big difference to our life. No issue is "too small" or "unimportant". So, whatever you are struggling with, talking really can help.

Hi, I’m Sarah. Thank you for visiting my page. Many of the people I work with feel lost always giving, doing, or achieving, yet unsure who they are beneath it all. They might look confident but carry quiet self-doubt or a sense of “not enough.” I offer a calm, compassionate space to slow down and reconnect. As someone who’s neurodiverse, I bring empathy, creativity, and warmth to my work, helping you feel truly heard and more at ease in your own skin.

We will use Transactional Analysis (TA) to explore negative beliefs created unconsciously from your early life experiences.
Are you looking for a neurodivergent therapist? I have a special interest in working with late diagnosed neurodivergent adults (Autism/ADHD/AuDHD) or if you are questioning your neurodivergent identity. From my own lived experience, I strongly relate to people who have felt misunderstood and experienced difficulties with fitting in with others. You may be hiding your struggles behind a mask which can be exhausting to maintain in the long term. Now might be the time to slow down and reconnect with your authentic self.

My practice is based on Transactional Analysis (TA) which looks at the way you communicate with others.
Acknowledging that you are struggling to cope with the daily life is hard and the first step to taking control of your life. Often people don’t feel that their problems are worth contacting a therapist about, as "others have it worse" and try to push the uncomfortable feelings away. Therapy isn't about blaming yourself or passing responsibility it's about working together with another individual to validate your experiences and understand your past patterns of behaviour. We will then work together to help you make positive changes for a more fulfilled life. I am a therapist and supervisor and work with teens and adults.

Often, I hear the phrase “others have it far worse than me…” and where there may be a truth in that phrase, I believe YOU are just as important. This is the ethos of my practice. I offer a safe, confidential and non-judgmental space for you to talk, be heard, your personal experience validated and for positive change to occur. I have also experienced personal therapy so understand how daunting the first step can be; at first I found it scary, challenging but always supportive and it gave me a greater self-belief and deeper understanding of myself that I continue using today.

You might be feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or unsure why certain emotions or body sensations keep showing up. Many people I work with feel disconnected from themselves or stuck in overwhelming patterns they can’t quite explain, often for a long period of time. I offer a calm, supportive space to explore what’s happening in your body and nervous system, helping you feel more grounded, regulated and connected again. This way of working can be particularly helpful if anxiety, stress or trauma show up physically through tension, fatigue, pain or shutdown.

Your 20s and 30s are often framed as “the best years of your life”. It’s a time of lots of change, self-discovery and forging your own path, but it comes with so many pressures and expectations. Perhaps you’re feeling stuck or lost, and lacking purpose and direction because you don’t know who you really are or what you want out of life. Maybe you’re struggling with difficult feelings, or have noticed there are unhealthy patterns playing out in your relationships. You might want to learn how to set and maintain new boundaries, communicate more effectively, and build your self-esteem. If any of this resonates for you, I can help.
