You may find it difficult, sometimes impossible, to control feelings of panic, anger, unworthiness or despair. If everyday life sometimes overwhelms you, for whatever reason, whether it's a result of trauma, difficult life changes, or unhelpful ideas about who you are, change is possible and can be quicker than you would think! If you are looking to gain perspective, learn ways of coping, feel more in control and hopeful about your ability to cope, I can help.

I am an experienced, Master's level BACP (Accred) Psychotherapist. Research tells us that there isn’t just one approach to therapy that suits all. By meeting each client as an individual with their own unique life experience, I draw upon my advanced training and broad experience to offer a safe, supportive and collaborative space. Our first session is a chance to explore what you are seeking from therapy, your personal history, and for you to decide whether working with me feels like the right fit to help you achieve your goals.

We all have moments when we feel low, stressed, anxious, depressed and just sometimes we can't seem to let go of our past experiences. Believing that the relationship between therapist and client is key, I aim to create a safe, warm space where clients can be heard and understood, to explore the depths of their thoughts and feelings, allowing them to speak the unspoken. I understand that each individual experience is unique and therefor tailor therapy to the needs of each client separately.

Do you have anxiety, or feel lost your sense of direction, feeling frustrated, sad, angry, guilty, shame, scared, or any other emotion? Would you like to explore options, make choices, move towards understanding who you are and what you want? Are you struggling with issues around confidence, procrastination, depression, anxiety, anger, guilt or any other difficulties? Do you struggle to understand? Why counseling therapy? If you are at a crossroads in your life, therapy is a place to explore your options in a safe and contained environment. Sometimes there's no 'win-win', so we must chose, albeit with regret. I offer free session.

I also offer low-cost relational-embodied supervision for counsellors and psychotherapists — both in training and post-qualification as trainee in the Diploma in Integrative Supervision at the Minster Centre (accredited by UKCP).

You have now taken the first step to living a 'whole' life. Whatever your reasons for seeking support, nothing is too big or too small to explore. Our sessions may be about a specific issue or transition you may be going through such as relationship or work challenges, a bereavement or loss or about exploring feeling 'stuck' and a lack of motivation or energy to move forward in life. Alternatively, you may want to take the time to explore a little deeper, particularly around initial attachments and past experiences or events and how these may be impacting you in this present time. The greatest agent of change is self awareness.

It can be daunting when we start addressing things that are painful and open up parts of our self which don't often, or ever, get expressed. I believe everyone has the right to be heard and accepted, so aim to create a space for this to flourish, whilst using the strength of the therapeutic relationship. Whatever has brought you to me, I aim to meet you where you are, help you gain deeper insight to yourself, and facilitate meaningful change.

I’m Julia Queiroz (PhD), a qualified Clinical Psychologist (licensed in UK, Portugal and Brazil) offering trauma-informed therapy in English, Portuguese and Spanish. I integrate Somatic Experiencing (SE), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and the NeuroAffective Relational Model (NARM, in training) to support adults struggling with anxiety, perfectionism, people-pleasing, emotional suppression, and childhood trauma. Many of the people I work with long for more authentic connection but feel stuck in patterns of tension, overwhelm, or self-doubt.
