I also hold the Advanced Specialist Fertility Counselling Diploma and I am a member of the British Infertility Counselling Association. Clients seek me out for all sorts of reasons. Your issue might feel like a ball of wool - a jumble - you're not sure where the start is, or the end, or how it even got that way. Counselling is about feeling safe enough to express your feelings.

Ivona - Mind Ivolution
Psychotherapist, MNCPS Acc.
You're the one everyone relies on, yet inside you're exhausted. You put everyone else's needs before your own, overthink everything and rarely stop long enough to ask yourself what you need. If you're living with stress, anxiety, PTSD or the lasting effects of difficult life experiences, therapy can help you understand why these patterns developed and, more importantly, how they can change. I'm Ivona, an NCPS Accredited Psychotherapeutic Counsellor based in Nottinghamshire, and together we'll help you feel calmer, more confident and more like yourself again.

Paloma McMullan
Psychotherapist, MSc, MUKCP
Does it seem like others are coping better, enjoying more successful lives or more fulfilling relationships? I'm here to help. Level 7-qualified, I work at depth- engaging with underlying patterns and processes- to support your journey of self-discovery, healing and personal growth. In practice since 2015, I have supported a diverse range of clients. I work with individuals, not issues per se, hence- whether we were undertaking short or longer-term therapy- I would focus upon engaging with you as a whole person; multifaceted, with a unique history and a distinct way-of-being.

Compassionate Counselling
Psychotherapist, MUKCP
We all get periods when we feel low, anxious, stressed, stuck or confused and need extra support. Friends and family are great at these times. However, sometimes the additional help of someone with psychological training and experience is invaluable in order to help you to look at things from a different perspective. I have 17 years experience counselling adults in private practice & NHS settings. My approach is integrative. This means that I am trained and experienced in using a range of psychotherapy theories and methods. So, just as you are unique, my approach will be uniquely tailored to suit your individual needs.

Light Bubble Counselling
Counsellor, DCounsPsych, MBACP
Do you carry pain that doesn't have a clear explanation; in your body, your relationships, or both? Maybe you've lived with complex trauma, abuse, or experiences from childhood that still shape how safe the world feels now. Maybe that shows up as fibromyalgia or chronic pain your body won't let go of, or as patterns in your closest relationships that feel impossible to shift. Many people I work with have spent years searching for answers their bodies and minds couldn't quite put into words. Together, we make sense of what's underneath, at a pace that feels right for you. English and French session.

Teresa Bee Counselling
Psychotherapist, MA, MBACP Accred
I offer short-term counselling, where we can work through more immediate and specific problems and longer-term psychotherapy for more intricate and deeper exploration. Whatever you have experienced, my aim is to help you move forward and benefit from the way you want to live your life. I understand how the impact of trauma on our lives creates a block in how we think and behave; where our past can overshadow or impede our view of our present life. With grief & loss, I recognise the parallel process of coping with our daily lives whilst managing a roller coaster of emotions and feelings that is both challenging and exhausting.

I’m Laiba, an MBACP integrative counsellor working with adults and young people.

Are you feeling low, empty, worried or sad, and searching for confidential support? You may be struggling within your relationships, finding it challenging to manage a new situation, or grieving the loss of an important person in your life. You may be feeling confused and alone in your problems; unable to share with others some of the thoughts and feelings that you’re having, due to feeling that you may be criticised, ridiculed or misunderstood. Taking some time out to explore your thoughts and feelings relating to your past or present, and to develop strategies for moving your life forward could be of long-term benefit to you.

Feeling low, confused, anxious, stuck, or overwhelmed can be incredibly isolating. Even when we have people around us who want to help, their support may not always feel helpful, we may feel misunderstood or we may feel like a burden. If any of this resonates with you, I want you to know that you’re not alone. I warmly welcome you to a space where you can feel truly heard and supported. I can help with challenges such as Low mood, Anxiety, Stress, Burnout, Bereavement & Loss, Low confidence, Trauma, Life transitions, Cultural identity matters, Relationships & Family issues (I only work with individuals, no couples or families).
