Self Esteem Counselling in Saint Helens

Hi, my name is Nicholas. I am a fully qualified counsellor and counselling supervisor, working in private practice. I offer counselling supervision for both student and qualified counsellors, and one 2 one counselling. As an Integrative counsellor, I draw on a variety of approaches to make best use of the time and the space for you. I believe working with the person in the room is the key rather than working directly with the presenting issue. I tend not to work on specialisms but do have extensive experience of working with adults and young people with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, low self-esteem, bereavement and loss.

Hello, I’m Heidi. Welcome to my profile. To find you here most likely means you're looking for someone to help you overcome the mental health issues you're facing. Maybe you're struggling with depression and are finding it hard to motivate yourself to do much of anything. Or perhaps anxiety is controlling your life and stopping you from taking the opportunities you would like to give yourself. You might have experienced trauma and are bogged down by the past. Whether your problem is excessive worry, intrusive thoughts, panic attacks or low self-esteem, I am confident I can help you achieve a better quality of life.

I'm a fully qualified person centred counsellor and Accredited member with the National Counselling Society. I have worked with anxiety (generalised and social), abuse (physical, sexual and emotional), depression, confidence, self esteem , panic attacks, addiction (Alcohol, drug, sex, love, pornography, eating and gambling), childhood and adult trauma and suicidal ideation as well as Obsessive compulsive thoughts and actions, divorce, bereavement and abusive relationships.

As a Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist, I support clients with common mental health difficulties, including: Major Depressive Disorder; Perfectionism; Low Self-Esteem; Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD); Hoarding Disorder; Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD); Social Anxiety Disorder; Health Anxiety Disorder; Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD); Panic Disorder; Specific Phobia; Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD); and more. So, if you are feeling low, lacking in motivation, are self-critical, engage in ritualistic behaviours, struggle with social interactions, have a lot of worries, or relive traumatic experiences, I can help you.

We struggle, we encounter challenges in life, and whether you feel it's too much and you're finding it hard to cope, or you want to deepen your personal development, counselling can be a deeply healing space to explore different parts of yourself, and take control of your life and your future. You are not alone, wherever you are on your life's journey, I want to help you promote positive change and growth. It takes courage to face our challenges and it will be my privilege to accompany you on this journey towards change.

If your searching for a Counsellor then I understand you have reached a point in your life when you are ready to look at issues that are having an impact on you. Maybe causing you day to day difficulties and stopping you being able to live your life the way you want to. It can be a frightening process when you decide to reach out for help to look at issues that are causing emotional distress. Counselling is an approach to help you gain an understanding of the issues affecting you and work towards making positive changes in your life. You have taken the first step in seeking help simply by searching for a counsellor.

Choosing to come for counselling is a big step and understandably you may feel anxious about how this will work for you. In our first session we will begin to get to know each other and I will explain how we will look together at the issues that are important to you. The person centred counselling that I offer puts you right at the heart of the process. I am able to provide you with a safe and supportive environment, where you will feel able to express your feelings without fear of being judged ...everything you say will be carefully listened to and treated in confidence ... if it matters to you then you are free to say it.

Hi! I am an Integrative Psychotherapist with a background in Nursing & Midwifery. I identify as socialist and vegan and try to live my life compassionately and respectfully, both for myself and others. The world is a traumatic place, particularly at the moment. Life can feel so stressful, a feeling that only intensifies when personal events occur too and life can feel overwhelming. Too often we are told we are 'wrong' or 'abnormal' for having justified feelings and reactions to traumatic experiences. It's my hope that within the context of our mutually trusting, therapeutic relationship you will feel seen and heard as a human being.

I’m a Person-centred therapist committed to helping you learn to accept yourself, empowering you to reach your potential, build resilience and develop healthy relationships with yourself and others. My work focuses on the therapeutic relationship, providing a space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings in a safe and confidential space. My first degree is in Psychology and I began professional counselling and psychotherapy training in 2019, this learning continues with a completion of a Masters in 2022. I have a passion for working with people who live with anxiety and supporting those have experienced bereavement.

If you are struggling with relationships, loss, stress, or feeling lost and overwhelmed, you might feel like you’re stuck, don’t know where to turn or how to move forward. Sometimes we don’t know what to say, how to say it or even fully understand what we are feeling; it’s often not just one thing that we are feeling but a complex mix of different emotions. Our sessions together will give you the opportunity to be heard, to explore your emotions and unpick the difficulties you are having.

Hi my name is Adrian, I am a positive and enthusiastic people person with a warm and friendly personality who loves the job I do. I am a fully qualified Counsellor and Psychotherapist who uses Person-Centred Experiential Therapy as my main therapeutic approach with you the client being central to the therapeutic process with what you bring to sessions being validated, not-judged and accepted. Alongside the Person-Centred approach I use elements of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) that is personalised to you the client to help you change behaviours, increase happiness, and overcome current problems you are facing in your life.

We all dream of the way we want our life to be. Then life happens and sometimes it can feel like we are stuck in a pattern of living that we do not want to be in. Or we live through painful experiences that days, months, or years later continue to influence how we feel, think and act. Or maybe our family life and relationships feel out of balance, we may feel out of control, overwhelmed or disconnected from our loved ones. I am here to listen to your story, your difficulties and your dreams of how you wish your life, relationships, work, and family to be. Therapy can help you feel unstuck, so you can enjoy being who you are.

Maybe you feel stuck and all your usual coping strategies do not work at this point; Maybe something difficult and traumatic happened that you need to process and learn to move on; Maybe you got trapped and overwhelmed with anxiety and it stops you from enjoying your life; Maybe you feel deep down in the sadness and struggling to see positive and enjoyable side of life and world; Maybe your childhood trauma shadows got out of the hiding place triggered by relationships or parenting or some challenging circumstances; Maybe you would like to build your confidence, get your sense of self back and get the best of your life.

Life can be hard, there's no escaping that, but taking that initial step to contact a counsellor may be the life-changing encounter you've been needing. Whether your issues are from the past, ongoing in the present or worries about the future, I've got you covered. If you need a safe space to figure out exactly what it is you need from life, a non-judgemental ear to listen without jumping in to add an opinion, a place where you can be yourself, hear yourself and learn to love yourself again...I'm your person. Whether you're depressed or anxious, struggling to reach your goals or are somewhere in-between, lets figure it out together.

I am a person centred counsellor and also have a qualification in cognitive behavioural therapy. I believe counselling is a journey of self-discovery and personal development that is a continual process both during and after therapy has taken place. Through counselling, a person will learn about themselves in a way they would never intend or maybe expect. As a counsellor I will be alongside you on your therapeutic journey and create a safe space that is respectful and non-biased to allow you to discover yourself and work through any issues that may be troubling you.
