Does life feel a bit unmanageable at the moment? Are you using unhealthy coping strategies to manage stress, such as binge-eating, too much alcohol or substance use and ‘addictive’ behaviours? As a warm, down-to-earth counsellor, I can support you to feel more balanced, boost your self-esteem, and explore ways to cope more easily with challenges and transitions (such as trauma, bereavement, infertility or other types of loss). Counselling with me is holistic and flexible, and can include mindfulness and creativity. Whether in the barn or out in nature, together we can find positive ways to improve your wellbeing.

Do you feel like it is difficult to reach your partner emotionally, are you being stone walled, afraid of conflict or are you people pleasing for a quiet life?

If you’re exhausted by shallow self-help, fake positivity, and constant pressure to be more productive, you’re not alone. Another podcast. Another morning routine. Another person online claiming they’ve mastered life while quietly falling apart behind the scenes. Meanwhile, you may still feel anxious, disconnected, stuck, lonely, overwhelmed, or unlike yourself underneath it all. I’m not especially interested in pretending life is simple or reducing people to diagnoses, labels, or productivity problems to solve.

Hello fellow travellers, my name is Jacqui. I want this to reach people who are travelling through life feeling lost and alone. People who are sick and tired of their same old story that no longer serves them. People who keep trying to convince themselves that if they just erase the old story, or write a different one with new characters, then hopefully the old story will fade away. But instead, those old, rickety pages are far too comfortable and familiar, and before you know it you find yourself travelling through them again, heading toward the same ending.

You might already understand your patterns, but still feel stuck in them — overthinking after conversations, feeling “too much” or not enough, or holding everything together while feeling disconnected underneath. Maybe you’ve tried talking therapies like CBT, but the same emotional loops keep returning. Often this is because the patterns aren’t just in thoughts — they’re held deeper, in the nervous system. I specialise in anxiety, trauma, and relationship patterns, using EMDR alongside parts-work (IFS), somatic and mindfulness-based approaches.

Many of my clients are expert copers. People who have been "getting on with it" and "pushing through" all of their lives. They may have lives that look great from the outside, and feel lonely, disconnected and overwhelmed on the inside. Eventually that way of living becomes unsustainable. My clients want some inner peace and calm, connection with others, and freedom and confidence in being themselves. They leave therapy with a greater understanding of their lives, compassion for their struggles, and joy in who they have revealed themselves to be. I love the work - whether its with individuals, couples, triads, or groups.

I provide a safe and unpressured space where you can explore all aspects of who you are, without the restrictions and expectations you might feel in everyday life. Counselling can help you make sense of your feelings, behaviour and relationships. I believe this can be a process of growth and self-discovery. We often adapt our true selves to manage the pressures of life. Counselling can be an opportunity to say the things you may never have had the chance to say before and explore feelings that may have been hidden. It can lead to deepened self-awareness and can help you find ways to become 'unstuck' and move forward with life.

Hi, I'm Mary (she/her), I'm passionate about supporting people with anxiety, suicidal thoughts, and relationship issues. Is your mind constantly racing, worrying whether you said or did the right thing? Wondering if people like you? Did you make the right decision? Do you find yourself beating yourself up when you feel like you've got something wrong and find it hard to let go of things. Maybe you find it hard to stand up for yourself. Life can be so overwhelming sometimes we can feel like we don't want to be here. It's exhausting isn't it! I'm guessing you're here because you're fed up and want something to change. I can help you.

I am trained in transpersonal therapy.
Finding a therapist can feel like a minefield. Ultimately you probably want to find someone to talk to that you feel comfortable with, and who can of course help. I understand how confusing and nerve-wracking it can be to consider therapy and take the first step. I provide clients with a supportive space in which to unpack their challenges. I will help you to get a better handle on what is happening for you. I have experience of working with anxiety, depression, significant loss and bereavement, childhood and midlife trauma, as well as difficulty understanding feelings.

Many of the people I work with are insightful, self-aware and emotionally reflective- yet still find themselves stuck in painful relational patterns. They often arrive exhausted by overthinking, second-guessing themselves, overgiving, or carrying the emotional weight within relationships. On the surface they may look like they have things together, but internally something feels off. You may notice yourself repeating the same dynamics, struggling to trust your instincts, or feeling drawn towards relationships that leave you anxious, unseen or emotionally depleted.

Transpersonal Counsellors
How does transpersonal therapy work?
Transpersonal therapy focuses on a patient’s spirituality and meaning in life. Transpersonal therapists might borrow from Eastern traditions as well as Western psychology. They may incorporate techniques including meditation, visualisation, hypnotherapy, dream analysis, and or breathwork to produce altered states of consciousness. The therapist helps the patient to access their consciousness and spirituality to work through difficult mental states.

How long does transpersonal therapy last?
Because the goal is to understand a person as a whole, including their spirituality, treatment can range from months to a year or beyond. While patients learn the philosophy behind transpersonal therapy during treatment, they can also practice its principles throughout life after therapy sessions have ended.

Is transpersonal therapy effective?
Patients have found success with transpersonal therapy; this method is useful in improving anxiety, depression, self-esteem, identity, fears, relationship problems, and other concerns. Improvements in problem areas can continue even after transpersonal therapy ends, as individuals can utilise the tools they’ve learned during treatment sessions.

What are the limitations of transpersonal therapy?
There is some research on the effectiveness of transpersonal therapy, but empirical support for this therapy approach is sparse. It does not have the robust evidence base of other forms of therapy, such as cognitive behavioural therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy.
