We face many challenges and this is perfectly normal, it happens to us all at some point. We seek counselling for a variety of reasons whether that being a relationship breakdown, mourning of a family member, depression, anxiety or just because we need someone to talk to. Counselling enables us to explore our thought feelings and emotions.

Chris Major
Counsellor, MUKCP
Verified
Counselling is an opportunity to be heard, to share with a trained person some of the difficulties that you encounter and to be supported to make positive changes to your life. I work in a respectful, empathic, understanding and compassionate way, providing a confidential, non-judgmental space to explore your thoughts, emotions and experiences. By reflecting on these experiences you can learn new ways of doing things and progress past what you feel is holding you back or causing you difficulty. I currently work from a comfortable and private space that is used solely for client sessions, online via video call or outdoors.
Carolyn Knaggs
Counsellor, MBACP Accred

The aim of sessions is to work towards an understanding of the challenges you face and the changes you wish to make. During sessions, you will be the focus of our attentions and I will value you without judgement, as a unique person, an equal. Having been in counselling myself, I have an understanding of the process. It can be a daunting prospect, and I will support you in that journey. I have listed many specialities and whilst I do have experience of working with them, I believe there is more to you than a "diagnosis" or an "issue" so the focus is on you the whole person, and whatever you choose to bring.

JD Counselling Therapy
Counsellor, DCounsPsych, MBACP

I use person centred, attachment focused therapy, elements of CBT and
art
and play therapy to enable the most suitable therapy to meet the clients needs within a safe and empathetic space.
If you are feeling like things are getting you down and preventing you leading your life the way you would like to, perhaps you may feel anxious or depressed and feel you have lost your self-esteem and belief in yourself, this could be through difficult life events like stress, relationship, bereavement or something that happened to you in the past. Taking back control of your life and living the way you want to can be helped with therapy to gain a more positive happier future.
UK Learning and Counselling Network
Counsellor, DCounsPsych, MNCS Accred
Verified
It is most gratifying for me to play a role in facilitating meaningful resolution through painful issues and impasses in someone’s life and then see them begin to thrive through the application of the new perspectives and problem solving approaches One of the key aspects in this endeavour is that a meaningful and successful outcome involves a mutual collaborative effort by both the therapist and the client. Since personal change is one of the greatest challenges any of us will encounter, I believe that cultivating this collaboration is the
art
of therapy that is both delicate and crucial in our achievements.

For example, talking therapy and/or creative based sessions (
art
, sand play, play therapy, etc).
Thank you for viewing my profile. This may be your first step in seeking counselling and the beginning of getting you on the road to better mental health. At times, it can help to talk to someone other than family or friends. You may wish to talk about and explore what is troubling you, such as anxiety, depression, anger, gender, low self-esteem, relationships, work/school, bereavement and loss, or other things that are causing you difficulties.
Gill Iley
Counsellor, BACP

This means I am happy to work creatively which may involve working with images and dreams and
art
material.
Hello and Welcome. Talking to someone should be one of the easiest things to do. But when it comes to emotions and feelings these can get stuck and tangled, making it difficult to communicate. My name is Gill and I have been a counsellor for over 14 years and have extensive experience working with clients, suffering losses and bereavement. I provide a clear space for people to explore and sit safely with where they are at. The positive environment I create allows you to seek your own conclusions maintaining your autonomy. I have held many clients of all ages struggling with loss, anxiety, bereavement and relationship difficulties.

Mary Louise Carr
Counsellor, MBACP Accred
Verified
I encourage clients to use their creative potential to help them heal including writing and
art
work.
Clients coming to see me have usually lost confidence in themselves-some have never had it. They want to feel more positive about their current situation and have a hopeful outlook for the future. Low mood and anxiety can arise for many reasons-sometimes we need to go back into earlier experiences to find out the cause. For others there has been a significant loss-of employment-or the death of a person close to them. All these things trigger a sense of insecurity and struggling to manage we can develop unhelpful behaviours -maybe we drink or eat too much or hurt ourselves in other ways. Counselling helps us find healthier options
Equinox Psychotherapies
Psychotherapist, MA, HCPC-Drama Therap.
Verified
Psychotherapy is as individual as you are. What suits one person will not be suitable for another. I offer a variety of techniques and disciplines with one thing in common - you. Together we will find a path that can lead to you feeling healthier and more balanced. I offer talking therapy, with a psychodynamic focus, and Dramatherapy - a creative psychotherapy, which can utilise one to one talking therapies, as well as elements of
art
work, play, stories, myths and movement. Working creatively can often reach the parts of the brain that talking can’t, allowing for a deeper exploration and opportunity for healing.

Creative Therapy Counsellors
It may look like a craft class, but creative therapy in Scarborough is a serious technique that uses the creative process to help improve the mental health of clients. Scarborough creative therapy can be used on children and adults to treat a wide range of emotional issues, including anxiety, depression, family and relationship problems, abuse and domestic violence, and trauma and loss. Commonly found in hospitals and community centres, creative therapy programmes are based on the belief that the creative process is healing and life-enhancing. As they paint or draw, a skilled Scarborough creative therapist can use the client's works of art and their approach to the process as springboards to help them gain personal insight, improve their judgment, cope with stress, and work through traumatic experiences.
