Counselling in Melksham

I am experienced in providing counselling to adults and I am ACTO certified for online and telephone counselling and clinical supervision. I use an integrative humanistic approach where I will walk alongside you within your process while providing a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space. I will challenge you when it may be helpful to unlock and discover more about you or your mental health. I will also safely encourage you to connect with your emotions as we work together with no pressure to go any deeper than you are comfortable going, as we build a unique and trusting counselling relationship to reach your goals.

I provide counselling from my private practice at my home in Melksham, Wiltshire. This is a private room providing a safe and confidential space for our work together. I can offer various daytime and evening appointments throughout the week. My training helps me to provide you with a reliable, regular, non-judgmental space where you can begin to talk about whatever is on your mind. I work in what is called an integrative way, using a wide range of therapeutic models, but primarily focusing on humanistic counselling.

Hello and a warm welcome to my page. If you are unhappy or anxious and would like to talk to someone, I can offer a safe and confidential space for you to do that.

Hi, I'm Suzi, a Humanistic Integrative Counsellor and I wholeheartedly trust that each person holds the potential to discover and cultivate confidence in being the authentic versions of ourselves. Whether you’re seeking support for anxiety, depression, relationship issues, trauma, or personal growth, I am committed to creating a nurturing, safe and non-judgmental space for exploration and healing. You may wish to focus exclusively on the present moment, your current life circumstances. You might wish to share experiences from your recent past, or from throughout your life.

Welcome, I’m Eilidh. I am a Humanistic and Integrative Counsellor, offering counselling to both adults and children. Life is rarely travelled without experiencing a period of difficulty. These can be as short as a day, or sometimes for what seems like forever. The impact and cause can be obvious and in-the-present, or sometimes less so, perhaps from your distant past. No matter the cause, you may be left depressed, anxious, or consumed by negative thoughts. The onset of feeling stuck and alone, not knowing what to do, often accompanies these emotions.

My ideal client is someone who will be honest with me in order for us to work together. I enjoy working with clients who are not really sure why they feel the way they do, but know that something is not quite right and feel the need to investigate this further. I have a particular interest and expertise in working with clients who have anxiety, depression, lack of self confidence and body image issues along with relationship difficulties. I work with clients to identify their needs and goals to create a unique personal treatment plan in order for them to reach their goals within a sensible time frame.

How are you? That's a question that gets asked a lot but it's often more of a statement, a greeting than an actual question. Most people don't even stop for the response and if they do, they're often too busy thinking about what they want to say, rather than listening to what's being said. It's no wonder then that we often stop asking ourselves that question too. If you're ready to stop and answer that question, then I'm here to listen and to hear what you have to say. Even if right now, you don't have the words, or you just don't know what to say... we can start with the question and go from there.

Are you finding life a challenge right now? Struggling with grief or the loss of a loved one? Anxiety or low mood becoming unmanageable?

Let me introduce myself. I am Kerry, local to Wiltshire. Working as a Qualified Integrative Counsellor, I take account of the whole person, emotional, physical and mental. I am trained in many theoretical approaches and a certificated registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. (MBACP). I work with a range of issues including trauma, abuse, depression, anxiety and relationships. I am a certified mental health first aider, a trauma informed practitioner and hold a L2 EY neuroscience certificate. I have partaken in my own therapy, and this allows me to know what it feels like to be in that chair.

As a qualified Humanistic and Integrative counsellor, if you choose to work with me I will value your uniqueness, listen to you and witness your story without judgement. At times, we may all need to reach out and seek help in our life-journeys. We may need help to find out how we really feel and who we really are or would like to be, and feel more empowered. My charges range from £30 to £70 per session depending on individual financial circumstances.

Occasionally it helps to review and reflect on life's pathway. It can be hard to do this by ourselves, our friends and family may feel too close to confide in. It can be helpful to explore our feelings and emotions in a safe, non-judgmental environment, I can provide this in a relaxing, quiet therapeutic space in Devizes. I have 15 years’ counselling experience with a deep interest in working with; bereavement and loss; with military families and veterans experiencing PTSD; with young people with additional needs such as autism, ADHD and ADD. I work in an integrated style with a special interest in Compassion Focused Therapy.

I am a highly skilled Clinical Psychologist with 19 years experience working in the NHS within adult mental health and physical health services. I am collaborative and flexible in my approach, drawing on a range of approaches to ensure therapy is best suited to your individual needs and goals. I aim to support you to develop an understanding of your difficulties, and develop the necessary strategies to make the changes needed to work towards your goals and values in life.

I am a qualified and BABCP accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapist, experienced in treating anxiety, depression and PTSD. If you want to find ways to think and do things differently to feel better, then CBT could be right for you. Together, in a safe and structured way, we will make sense of what may be keeping you stuck and empower you to learn strategies to work towards your own goals. This could involve learning new coping techniques, challenging negative thoughts and beliefs, or experimenting with different ways of doing things. By the end of therapy you should have new tools to be able to live your life differently.

I am a trained, accredited and registered (UKCP and UKAHPP) Counsellor, Psychotherapist and Supervisor, with over 15 years’ experience. Apart from six years’ training (humanistic, UKCP accredited) as a Psychotherapist, I have also done further courses in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Sex Therapy, Addictions counselling, Couples’ counselling and have specialised in working with domestic abuse survivors. Before training as a Psychotherapist, I worked in Higher education Administration. I am experienced in working with individuals bringing a whole range of issues from anxiety and depression to bullying and other abuse.

My approach centres on understanding you as an individual and seeking to build a relationship of trust with you over time. We’ll work at your pace, and with what you want to address. It depends on you but our work together might include: looking at current issues in your life from an alternative perspective; noticing how how patterns learnt in early life might be affecting you now; connecting into feelings that perhaps you have been avoiding; expressing thoughts or emotions you haven’t been able to share and facing issues from your past that have felt too tough to confront previously when, and if, it feels right.
