Welcome, my name is Julia and thank you for taking the time to drop by to learn a little more about me and how I may be able to help you to feel better about your life. It has been my experience that navigating our way through our lives is not always plain sailing and at times we may turn to unhelpful and self-destructive ways to see us through. Whether it is alcohol, drugs, shopping, surgery or unhealthy relationships we are trying to cope with deep unhappiness in the best way we can and as we get older those feelings and addictive behaviour can often get stronger and take us to dark places.

Hello, I’m Donna. I am a Holistic Psychotherapist who is passionate about providing a service that is able to tailor therapy to the needs of the individual. During my time working as a Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist, I have become increasingly aware of the need to adopt a flexible and more inclusive way of offering therapy. With the aim of offering you a person-centred approach to your therapy journey, I have completed training in a variety of disciplines and therapies. Each therapy can be accessed as a stand-alone treatment or as part of a tailored treatment plan.

Living with mental health difficulties can be a tough experience, especially if you feel that you do not have much support to help you. If you also have physical health issues, then this can be even more distressing and potentially isolating. As a qualified and registered Clinical Psychologist, I have often worked alongside individuals struggling to live a value-driven life as mental health difficulties have gotten in the way. I believe it is important to tailor therapy to meet your needs/goals. We can create a safe space to reflect upon your experiences, and collaboratively find ways to manage the difficulties you are experiencing.

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.

Life can be hard. Sometimes you may feel stuck, overwhelmed or simply just in need of some extra support. I offer a space that is free of judgement, friendly and empathic to help uncover and explore experiences and emotions that may be contributing to some of those occurrences in the present time.

Hello, I'm Zareeda and I work with people on issues ranging from rape and sexual abuse to stress, bereavement, anxiety and depression. If you are struggling to find meaning in life you may be feeling disconnected from yourself and/or those around you. This loss of contact with yourself, your needs, values and beliefs may decrease your trust in your ability to form and build meaningful relationships and achieve personal goals.

Are you struggling with feeling anxious, low or depressed, uncertain or disconnected? All around us people are feeling anxious, overwhelmed and uncertain about how they are supposed to manage their relationships, careers and their lives. You are not alone. Talking about it can really help but perhaps the people you usually talk to are struggling with their own problems or don’t know how to help. I’ve spent 27 years as a therapist listening and helping people find more peace, clarity and joy in life.
