Depression Counselling in Nottingham

Do you struggle with issues such as anger, anxiety, depression, self esteem, self harm, or relationship issues?
I work creatively using story and metaphor, paints, clay, sand, meditation, music and more. I find people are more able to access the more painful parts of themselves with the help of creative mediums and work to finding their own solutions in their own time.
This is all offered using the humanistic core conditions of empathy, non-judgement and congruence

I work with anxiety disorders (inc. anxiety, panic, phobia, stress), PTSD, depression, ADHD and I have a keen interest in ASD.
As we talk, I look for links and patterns to understand the issues, holding in mind theory on how humans think, feel, behave and relate. My experience is mainly adult mental health, including complex and enduring problems, and ASD. I use CBT, CFT and EMDR (fully trained), but I tend to bring in what works e.g. DBT, Systemic, Attachment, Psychodynamic.
