Counselling in Nottingham
There are occasions when difficult life experiences can create barriers to moving forward even though this may be your greatest desire. When difficult feelings seem overwhelming and begin to impact on personal development therapy can provide a supportive non-judgemental space which can help in moving towards growth and change. I offer a supportive caring service, a confidential space where it is possible to gain personal insight and awareness which support conditions for creating balance.

Hi, I am Tilly, an integrative counsellor and psychotherapist. I understand how starting therapy can be a scary first step, therefore my aim is to offer you a gentle, safe, non-judgemental and comfortable environment for you to explore what may be causing you discomfort. Whether that may be exploring and understanding the root cause of your problems, or simply just someone to listen without judgement, I aim to offer you the space to grow and reach your full potential and to get in touch with your more authentic self.

I offer an open encounter where I help foster in you a greater sense of self-worth and agency.

If you’re reading this, you’re most likely in a space of confusion, anxiety, anger, loneliness, resentment, sadness or grief. You might be feeling one, some or all of these; and more.
I know this first step is hard, whether you’ve had therapy before or not. It means you’ll be starting a journey towards the unknown, and when you’re already going through so much, it can feel like doing nothing is easier.
I’m here to meet you where you are and sit with you in that space or walk with you to face parts of yourself that you're reluctant to go to on your own. I’m here to help create a different space so we can explore whatever you need.

Your experiences deserve to be seen and understood. Whether you’re navigating societal pressures, stigma, or personal challenges, this space is here for you to explore your emotions and find healing on your terms.
It’s okay to feel that carrying the weight of being 'strong' is too much. Here, strength is about allowing yourself to be vulnerable and seeking the support you deserve. You can care for yourself AND honour your resilience.

Life often throws many ups and downs our way. Sometimes we cope and sometimes it feels just too much. Therapy can help you regain your equilibrium, providing a safe space for you to share your concerns with somebody who will really listen. I know it can be difficult to ask for help, “I have no right to feel like this because ...” is a common sentiment - but you do have that right. Counselling can help you to understand yourself and build your own resilience and long term mental well-being. Whether you wish to tackle a particular dilemma or explore underlying issues, it is important you allow yourself the time and space you need.

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.

If you struggle with an addiction I will work with you to help you find a way to stop and more importantly, stay stopped. I’m sure you will have heard the words “why don’t you just stop/cut down”.

If you’re looking for help it’s probably damaging your life in some way now and you’re ready to look for a solution. You have taken the first step, looking for an answer.

Do you struggle with managing your emotions, feeling overwhelmed by intense emotions, or shut down and disconnected? Have you been told you’re too sensitive? You might feel things deeply, be affected by others’ moods, or feel ashamed of how you respond emotionally. You may wonder whether you'll ever feel truly worthy or confident. These difficulties can affect your daily life and relationships, perhaps leading to anxiety, withdrawal or feeling misunderstood. Coping by bottling things up, or ‘just getting on with it’ may have helped, but now you're ready to take the next step towards living fully and forming meaningful relationships.

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.
