Do you feel like something needs to change but it’s hard know where to start? Do you find yourself getting caught up in unhelpful patterns within your family, relationships or work? Or maybe you're feeling numb, empty or anxious and can't seem to shake this off? When you’re feeling stuck in a pattern or weighed down by distressing feelings it can be really hard to find a way forward and find the motivation to change things. You are the expert on your own situation, but sometimes it can really help to talk things through to help you understand yourself more, make changes and live your life more fully.

As a Psychotherapist, Life Coach & Hypnotherapist, my clients get x3 professional competencies for the price of 1! I feel it’s time the truth was known about depression, mental illness & menopause. I identify the ‘root causes’ of distress, using a unique, methodology & practice, that considers psychological pain as a ‘symptom’. This paradigm shift, regarding the root cause of psychological distress, ensures my clients experience freedom from depression, stress, anxiety, the misery of menopause, addictions, & compulsive behaviours. This catalyses psychological growth & offers powerful sustainable transformation.

In a world where people seem more connected to their phones than each other, it's rare to find someone who has dedicated time and space just for you. Someone willing to walk alongside you for as long as you need to figure things out, digest what has happened, and help you learn about yourself in the process. Perhaps you’ve reached a crisis point in your life, and don’t know where else to turn? Maybe you’ve been out-of-sorts for a while, and need some help to figure out what is going on? Or perhaps you're here because you want to understand yourself better and how you relate to others?

I provide a supportive environment in which we can explore together the difficulties that you're experiencing without any judgement. Life can be tough, and change can be hard. We often get fused to unwanted thoughts, beliefs, and struggle with them. We can often feel despair and a sense of hopelessness. I help people realise that unwanted thoughts, feelings, and circumstances can, and do, change, and help people make positive differences in their life.

I work for the NHS in a service supporting people with developmental trauma and personality difficulties that affect their lives. My expertise is with people who have experienced trauma (long-term or short-term). Events like this can lead to a range of mental health difficulties, such as depression, anxiety, panic and psychosis and also unhelpful coping behaviours, such as self-harm and suicidal thoughts, substance use, relationship struggles, and so on. I aim to help you understand where issues are stemming from, so we can work on developing a healthier life for you. I also work with risk related behaviours - contact for more info.

Working on-line, I provide a warm, accepting environment. An authentic, confidential and secure atmosphere for therapy allows the opportunity to explore, understand and work towards your therapeutic goals, with the passion and humour I bring. Dealing with the "difficult stuff" is something we are all capable of avoiding. It needs to feel safe enough to talk about what can feel most vulnerable and hardest to put into words. My role is to create the atmosphere where there's trust in; not being judged, found too much or not enough, being heard and valued. Email is the best way to contact me, I look forward to hearing from you
Growing Room: Person-Centred Therapy
Counsellor, MBACP
Verified

Hello. I believe, as with all living things, humans have within them an innate drive to develop and grow. Just as plants need nutrients and water to thrive, I believe we need an environment of warm, empathic understanding so we can strive - just like a flower in bloom - to reach our fullest potential. We also have a deep need for connection and acceptance. I believe that given these optimum conditions for growth, we can strive to become more fully who we want to be, and not perhaps just how others perceive us. I feel honoured and privileged when I meet new clients and they choose to work with and share their life stories with me.

You are the only person who knows exactly how you feel, which means, you are the only one who knows when something is wrong. When something has happened, big or small, but enough to create feelings of anxiety, stress and depression, it can lead us to feeling isolated and alone. There is a human need to want to get back to that balance of a happy life and that change can only happen when you know and understand what is wrong and why. Sometimes we get so overwhelmed by a situation, current or historical, we cant seem to find a way out. But balance is achievable again, but sometimes we just need a little support to help us get there.

A very warm welcome. You may be considering some professional support to help you with life's challenges. I know life can be tough at times for a variety of reasons, and we can find ourselves feeling out of control and under pressure, leaving us struggling and feeling lost, not knowing who to turn to for help and support. It may help you to share your thoughts and feelings, and in doing so you will be positioning yourself in the direction of potential growth, healing and change, which can help you manage your challenges and day to day life.

My name is Ellie and I have spent a number of years working with adults and children, including children with additional needs, in a number of environments including schools, residential homes and out in the community. I describe myself as open-minded, approachable, non-judgmental and down to Earth. I ensure my clients feel comfortable, safe and heard in the counselling room as I understand firsthand how daunting counselling can be. Counselling can be for a specific reason or 'issue', or it can be an opportunity for someone to better understand themselves for them to see what counselling is like.

Hi, I’m Gem, I see clients in-person in Nottingham and online UK-wide. We are complex beings - I believe our past, our here-and-now circumstances, and the wider world we live in are all interconnected. Together they shape us, and the struggles and questions we bring to counselling. There may be experiences from your past causing ongoing distress, patterns you notice repeating, anxieties or overwhelming feelings that are hard to soothe. My practice is grounded in conversation and collaboration, and may include creative and body-focused approaches depending on what works for you.
