I offer affordable integrative counselling, which helps with overcoming difficulties such as low mood, anxiety, poor self-esteem, bereavement and relationship issues. You may be lacking direction in your life at the moment, it may seem meaningless or you might feel low in confidence. Perhaps you are looking to find some clarity around what's important to you and to explore how you can bring more of this into your life? Or maybe you want to improve how you feel about yourself? Or perhaps you need a warm and compassionate space where you can fully feel your grief to be able to start to move forwards in life again?

In my work as a Psychodynamic Psychotherapist, I help adults who are experiencing considerable difficulties with their thoughts and feelings about themselves and in their relationships with others - particularly with partners, family and at work. These difficulties are often associated with a variety of psychological problems and negatively affect mental health, sometimes severely. Persistent poor mental health and relationship issues are often rooted in problems with caregiving experienced as an infant, child and teenager.

My approach integrates a range of therapies including Transactional Analysis, Gestalt, CBT and Solution Focused with particular emphasis on Person Centred and the therapeutic relationship, which I believe is key to providing effective counselling. I aim to provide a safe, non-judgemental space for you to explore your experiences and will work with you at a pace you are comfortable with tailoring therapy to you as an individual. I hope my warm approach will put you at ease and make the whole process less daunting for you so we can work through whatever you're experiencing together.

My work deals universally with the reduction of suffering, your suffering. Specifically this may include Depression, Anxiety, Low Mood, Loss of purpose, Grief, Relationship issues, managing change and family problems. Often we can be lost in our thinking and we can swing, like a pendulum, between worries of the past and anxieties of the future, never really pausing to be present now. This is normal, we all have these times. However sometimes, some of us get stuck in these places and need some guidance to bring us into balance and offer us support,at difficult times in our lives.

Hello, are you seeking a compassionate guide to help you through life's ups and downs? I believe we each have an innate ability to navigate challenges, but sometimes, when life feels heavy due to either bereavement, loss, trauma, or a life changing event, we don't have to face it alone. Together, we will work to address your pain and challenges, ensuring that you feel heard, valued and empowered. With experience working at a local counselling centre, as well as with a national bereavement charity, I offer a safe and supportive environment to explore your needs and foster healing, change and growth.

My name is Talya. At the heart of how I work is the belief that everyone's choices and experiences are understandable if we give the time and attention to understanding them. When we are supported it becomes more possible to gain insight into the ways we feel limited, to acknowledge and release the feelings that can keep us stuck and to find new ways of being. Therapy can provide a chance to heal from the hurts that accumulate within us and help us find the resources to meet life fully. Through our time together, you may find that new ways of relating to yourself and the world around you become possible.

My aim as a counsellor & coach is to listen to you and understand you, offer you a safe space to talk & help you to understand what is going on for you. I can help you to find a pathway forward and find some understanding. Areas of interest & specialism are trauma, neurodiversity, (particularly ADHD) & relationships, although my work is not limited to these areas and I work with a diverse range of clients. I also offer alternative therapies to my clients, if required, which can be taken alongside counselling or coaching, including EFT, hypnotherapy, guided meditations, Indian Head Massage & Reiki.

Life can often feel both difficult and overwhelming and I offer a peaceful, private and confidential space in which you can talk through some of the issues that might be holding you back or making life feel challenging. Maybe your relationship is feeling buried under family life or intimacy has dwindled. Perhaps you are feeling unhappy at work, or are navigating difficult life events like, divorce or bereavement. Counselling is your time to explore what matters to you. We can decide together what your goals are from counselling and how I can best support you using the very best of current theory, thinking and skills.

I have worked with many different people - with different needs - from people recovering from addiction(s), people living with feelings of depression and anxiety, neurodivergent folks, to those coping with bereavement and people dealing with abuse, violence and trauma. I'm especially passionate about working with people with traumatic life experiences and those from the LGBTQ+ community. I am a cisgender bisexual and queer woman and I use she/her pronouns. I work with an open-mindset and am poly/kink/bsdm aware. I work in a gender affirming way. I pride myself on being warm, friendly and down-to-earth.

It takes courage to seek support when life isn’t going well, and we would like to work out why. Counselling can help in difficult times, and also in times when we wish to understand ourselves better. With awareness, we have the choice to change our thoughts, feelings and behaviours. I offer safe, confidential and free from judgement counselling sessions, either face-to-face in the heart of Totnes, South Devon, or online via zoom. I offer a free no obligation initial consultation 30 min phone call to discuss what brings you to counselling, answer any questions you may have and to ensure I'm the right therapist to help you.

Hello and welcome. My name is Ed, an NCPS accredited counsellor in Paignton who has spent most of my life in Devon. I know the bravery that it takes to admit that something in your life is too big a challenge to manage yourself, and the level of trust needed to open up to another human being. My counselling offers a solution through a trusting and confidential process of exploration and reflection, led by you but supported by me and my professional training and experience.

Clients tell me that I am warm, kind, non-judgmental and easy to talk to, especially after taking that difficult first step to contact a counsellor in the first place. I have called my practice The Upward Spiral because I believe in the power of making initial achievable changes. I have seen many times how these first ‘small’ changes can then lead to an upward spiral of more positive change, which can reverse the downward spiral of depression and anxiety.

Most often, I work with clients who need a safe, confidential space to make sense of different types of relational hurt. In the first instance, I make plenty of time to for us to talk about and establish your goals for therapy, so we're both clear how you'd like things to be, how you’d like to feel and what it is you hope gain from the process. From this point, I see our work as a collaborative exploration in moving towards where you want to be, equipping you with the tools you need to find meaning, purpose and a greater sense of peace and ease in the world.
