Counselling in Peterborough

Hi, I am AJ. I am a UKCP accredited Integrative Clinical Psychotherapist, qualified at MSc level with distinction, offering both short/long term work. My practice offers a supportive setting for you to feel comfortable and accepted while providing a safe, nurturing and non-judgmental environment. My training and experience enables me to work 1-2-1 and with couples, alongside using EMDR to specialise in working with anxiety, depression, relationship issues and trauma. My aim is to provide you with the tools you need to better understand yourself and to help move you to a richer, healthier and more fulfilling life.

I am a psychologist specialising in working with clients who have experienced trauma, have emotional difficulties and struggle to cope. You may have a range of symptoms such as flashbacks, nightmares, depression, hopelessness, anxiety; you may avoid people or situations that trigger distressing memories; you may not feel safe, you may be hyper vigilant and have learnt to survive the only way you can. Having these experiences can make you distrust yourself and the world, you feel unsafe in your body and withdraw from others. Healing from trauma is about restoring that sense of safety so you can rejoin the world again.

Thank you for viewing this profile. At In Balance we offer a confidential space to explore your issues, worries and concerns through counselling or coaching. You have the choice to work either face to face with your therapist in person at our private, comfortable office, or remotely via video or telephone. We offer male and female counsellors and have appointments from 3pm-7.30pm weekdays and Saturday mornings. Counselling is always at your pace and frequency and duration of sessions can be discussed at your free initial consultation. We look forward to meeting you.

Your reason for looking for a counsellor could be for a variety of reasons. It may be you have noticed you are feeling very anxious, depressed or struggling with panic attacks. You may have noticed difficulties in your relationships or you are struggling with some extreme emotions such as anger or sadness. Perhaps you are concerned about a teen or young person who would like to talk with someone about their emotions. I offer counselling sessions to meet all these needs. My priority is to provide you with a space where you comfortable to talk without any judgement often being listened is all that is needed

I work with a range of emotional and mental health challenges including anxiety, depression, mood instability, trauma, disordered eating, interpersonal relationship challenges, OCD and unusual perceptions and experiences.

Hi my name is Ruth, I'm a qualified counsellor I work in private practice. People come to counselling for many reasons, struggling to make sense of the world and how they fit in it. Relationship breakdowns, addictive behaviours that are causing you a problem. You may have reached a point in your life where you feel low, no motivation and a real sadness. A recent loss or an overwhelming anxiety. Whatever it is I would like to support you and together find your own answers and maybe a new perspective. This is an opportunity to gain a greater self awareness, and gain some maybe much needed peace.

Sometimes during our lives we can experience anxiety, stress and depression. Maybe life has become difficult and we can’t cope, or have lost our direction? I work with individuals, offer couples counselling, and support people experiencing anxiety, depression and stress. In addition I also offer Anger Management support. You Need Not Struggle. I have counselled and support clients with a variety of life’s problems, from specific concerns to issues where the client is less sure as to the cause of their unhappiness. I share my time currently between Adult Mental Health Day

Are you suffering from Anxiety, Depression? maybe a Bereavement or Relationship issue? With 10 Years experience in many areas I can support you. It's not always easy talking to family or friends, this is where counselling can really help you. Together we can look at whatever it is thats troubling you whether its past or current events, this will enable you to have a clearer understanding, freeing you to live a happier more positive life. I am a qualified and experienced counsellor providing a safe, confidential and non judgmental place for you to talk and explore your inner thoughts and feelings. I use a variety of CBT tools.

Are you struggling with issues related to trauma and distress, grief, addiction, anxiety, family, friendship, or relationship difficulties, issues at work, or major life changes? Maybe worries and intrusive thoughts are keeping you awake or stopping you from being able to fully concentrate. Maybe you feel in a rut, or feel an increasing loss of hope. You may be managing difficult feelings using methods that no longer work and you want to find different ways to cope. You may be functioning well on a day-to-day basis but struggle with inner conflicts and turmoil or have repetitive negative experiences which you would like to explore.

I know how difficult it can be to seek help when life is tough. Sometimes the idea of sharing your deepest thoughts and fears can be scary. Counselling can help you to begin to make some changes in your life.

I believe it is important to have ‘relational depth’ or a ‘connection’ between one another in therapy, and research has shown, the greater connection between therapist and client, supports better outcomes; therefore, I hope we can explore what life is like for you in a trusting, deeper and comfortable space. I am often told that I build rapport and trust quickly which allowed my clients to explore their thoughts and feelings when they are ready. I take a soulful and peaceful approach and sometimes like to use a little humour – we are all human after all!

I work one to one with adults who are struggling with anxiety and low self-esteem. experiencing difficult thoughts and feelings about themselves and/or their relationships. Sometimes well-meaning friends, colleagues and family can truly wish to provide help and support, but your current relationship/situation with them may not allow you to fully express what is troubling you. You may feel overwhelmed, believe your problems and concerns are not valid and you want to be taken seriously. I provide a space for you to talk freely, feel heard and be supported to work through what might be holding you back. Reach out by phone or email

Are you suffering from anxiety, panic attacks, felling generally low, or facing challenges that are preventing you from moving forward and leading a full and happy life? At times life can be very difficult leaving you feeling confused, unhappy, unheard, and restricting you from leading the life you want. Counselling can be the first step towards change, regaining a sense of control in your life, and a better, more positive future for you. I work around a wide variety of issues, problems and complex situations providing you with support, empathy and a space for you to share your concerns.

Life can be difficult and stressful, and navigating its challenges can become hard. Perhaps you're feeling overwhelmed, getting out of bed in the morning is hard, maybe relationships are difficult, you have worries about the future or the past is looming heavily in your thoughts.

You want to change the effect the issues you have and to stop them having the impact they making on your life. Wanting to start enjoy life that you are not having now. Just want to take back control.
