Our first session is an opportunity to discuss and explore your needs, and consider whether individual,
couples
, family counselling or psychotherapy would be helpful in supporting you in and with your process.
We all experience difficulties in life if you’re feeling overwhelmed, lost, anxious or depressed, I can help. I provide a safe, accepting and non-judgemental space where you can talk about issues that you are facing. Events or triggers can cause difficult feelings. I can help you unpick, understand and manage them so that they don’t overwhelm you. I am currently working Face to Face, Telephone, FaceTime, WhatsApp Video or Skype/Zoom. I am a MBACP Accredited Counsellor and Psychotherapist. BACP is my governing body, I adhere to its ethical guidelines and hold myself to the highest professionals standards.

Independent Counselling & Psychotherapy Services
Psychotherapist, MSc, MUKCP

I aim to offer a professional yet down to earth
relationship
in which you can explore your personal difficulties whatever they may be. Sessions are offered weekly or fortnightly, usually in an open ended way until you're feeling more like yourself again. Some people come for a few sessions, some for a few months and others decide to come longer term. Many people are now starting to use therapy over time and re-access support at times when it is needed most with someone who they trust to know them and their life well. I take a firm stance on challenging stigma surrounding mental health.

I have experience working with adults, children,
couples
and families.
Are you feeling "stuck" and not sure why? You may feel anxious, angry, upset and you don't like how it makes you feel. You may have a child and you are worried about their well-being or are you in a
relationship
that needs a little help? Whatever it is, you can share it with me and I will help you understand why. If you are ready to take that next step to peace of mind then get in touch.

I know it can be hard to express unspoken thoughts or difficult emotions such as shame, guilt or anger, so I hope to build a trusting therapeutic
relationship
in which you feel comfortable and heard.
Hi, I’m Lucy. I am a warm and open-minded person who understands that we all go through challenging periods in life when things feel overwhelming. Sometimes life can be hard; complicated, confusing and painful. You may be feeling stuck or struggling with something on your own and I appreciate that this can feel like a very lonely and isolating experience. I am here to listen and support you. I offer a safe, non-judgemental and confidential space for you to explore any difficulties you might be facing.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, lost, or low? Repeating unhelpful patterns in behaviour, and feeling disconnected? Is your
relationship
with food taking over your life, or does it worsen from time to time when you’re experiencing difficulties? I can help.

Pamela Burgess
Counsellor, MBACP

Many of us find ourselves struggling to cope with past or current traumatic events, depression, work related stress, loss,
relationship
issues and various setbacks in life. It can feel very overwhelming if we mask our feelings and try to battle through alone. Perhaps you always put other peoples needs first and want to learn how to have your own needs met. You may have difficulties in your relationships and want to understand why unhealthy patterns of relating keep repeating themselves. Problems in our childhood such as abuse and neglect can rob our self esteem and confidence as adults. Counselling can help with many of these issues

Jessica Bacon

I believe the
relationship
between the client and counsellor is hugely important. I am a warm and approachable person, focused on putting you at ease. At times in life, it can feel that people don't understand us, like we are being judged for the way we feel. It can be helpful to communicate these thoughts and emotions to gain a clarity and understanding to help you find a more fulfilling way of living. From personal experience, I understand that counselling can help make profound changes in their lives and relationships. These changes happen through a greater understanding and acceptance of ourselves.

I specialise in supporting people who find themselves in repeated patterns of thinking and behaving that can cause repeated problems with work, intimate relationships, friendships and sometimes the
relationship
a person has with themselves. People may also find themselves stuck in unhelpful repeated ways of coping with thoughts, feelings and relationships and this can have a significant and detrimental impact on wellbeing and quality of life. Problems such as poor sleep, anxiety, OCD, up and down moods are often the by-product of difficulties with coping.

Monika Baran

Our
relationship
will be based on equality and is a genuine partnership between two real and unique human beings.
I believe people have the potential to self-heal and grow, to develop and change when the right support and environment is offered to them. This enables people to trust their feelings and be less reliant on the judgement of others.

I've worked with a diverse range of clients for issues such as anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, self-harm, eating disorders, OCD, PTSD, sexual abuse, domestic abuse, addiction, panic attacks, stress, bereavement and
relationship
problems.
We all have times when we feel lost, alone or misunderstood. We want things to change but we don’t know how. Unsure of what we want we may talk to family or friends, but all they do is offer opinions. Sometimes we have no one to talk to and remain trapped in isolation unsure of own truth. This is where counselling can help.

At LRT we believe in the forming of a quality therapeutic
relationship
in which you are accepted, valued and respected for who you are, and for the life experiences you have had.
We are a team of professional counsellors supporting men & women who are struggling with a wide range of emotional difficulties. Do you need someone unrelated to confide in, listen with no judgemental or agenda, offer compassion, understanding, and to walk with you as you explore your inner thoughts and feelings? We can offer the support you need to focus on you, and to develop coping skills to assist you on your journey of healing. Looking after our mental health is just as important as our physical health. Don’t suffer alone, there is light at the end of that dark tunnel. Seeking support can pave the way to a brighter future.

We all experience difficult times in our lives, suffering anxiety, depression, stress, anger,
relationship
issues, grief, bereavement, physical illness, emotional/physical abuse, low mood, and low motivation, to name just a few of the reasons people come to therapy. At times we will feel like we don’t want to ‘burden’ people with how we feel so we try to push through and carry on, we try to pretend all is ok, we try and cope by putting on a smile and a brave face, often we simply find we are unable to move forward and feel stuck.

My expertise lies in the areas of social anxiety, low self-esteem and ADHD. I provide counselling for individual adults. Sessions take place in a caring and professional environment, which is sufficiently challenging to effect change. Working together we can help you gain a better understanding of yourself, to overcome obstacles in your life, and reach your goals. I work with people on a wide range of issues. The quality of the therapeutic
relationship
contributes to a positive outcome in counselling, which is very important in my work. I have 22 years' experience providing counselling and psychotherapy.

Behind the jargon that means in sessions I will strive to create a
relationship
with you based on understanding, acceptance and honesty.
Most people find themselves in dark or confusing places at times throughout their lives, questioning who they are, wrestling with difficult questions, trauma, illness, addiction or bereavement. Sometimes people don't have anyone to share these challenges with or can't share them with those close to them. Despite proverbs about sharing problems, as a society we don't really encourage people to open up. I believe that everyone should have the opportunity to do this. I hope to offer a space in which you can feel safe and respected while you explore these challenges and move towards improved mental well being.

Are your feelings muted? Or perhaps too loud? Do you wish to feel heard and understood? Have life events impacted you and your internal world? Are you struggling to make sense of it all? Is there a sense of losing who you once were? These are some of the reasons why people reach out for counselling. Transition, disasters, loss, excessive stress and
relationship
problems affect us all. At times we can manage what is placed in front of us. Other times, we need some support to navigate difficult times. Cultural stigma can prevent certain groups asking for help e.g. men; Blue light workers; military. Don't hold back. You matter.

Couples Counselling
Does couples counseling work?
Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.
When should a couple seek counseling?
Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.
How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?
The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.
How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?
The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
