If you have landed on this page I believe an important part of you knows that you are suffering and need support. I know myself that entering a therapeutic relationship when we are feeling uncertain or vulnerable is a brave and courageous act. Good therapy should lead to a deeper understanding of ourselves, others, and ultimately a reduction in our suffering. I use my experience and clinical expertise to help people who are dealing with life transitions, illness or trauma e.g. bereavement, retirement, divorce, parenting, chronic or life-threatening illness, adult autism & ADHD, eating disorders, difficult/abusive relationships.

Are you wanting to work out why patterns keep repeating in your relationships, or maybe you are a couple wanting to improve communication and intimacy. I am a counsellor and trauma therapist, offering therapy to individuals, couples and groups. My main approach is Transactional Analysis, a model to help us understand ourselves and our relationships better, and find ways to make the changes we want.

My role, as a psychodynamic therapist, is to provide an environment that is confidential and safe. This is why I do what I do. I provide an outside perspective to help you understand how your past influences present behaviours; your use of defences to avoid reality and awareness of how unconscious reoccurrence operates in your life. With your assistance my aim is to develop different strategies in making better choices to existing problems and explore beliefs of past feelings, memories. This doesn’t mean all your life is broken, but certain grey areas compromising the relationships you’re having with self and others.

People seek therapy for different reasons. You may be feeling low, depressed, anxious or stressed; or perhaps you just have the feeling that things are not quite right. It might be that the distress is such that you cannot function at all. These could be recent feelings or you may have been experiencing them for years. In any case, counselling or psychotherapy can help you make sense of things, explore different options or make changes. Some of these issues can be sorted after a few sessions; in other instances, a more long-term approach will be needed.

Hi I'm Lindsay and I specialise in working with Anxiety and low self-esteem. I am a qualified Integrative Therapist. I work with many issues but specialise in improving confidence and mood, and lowering anxiety & stress. I realised how effective CBT was in working with Anxiety & Low Self-Esteem very early in my career in my very first placement! I trained further and view CBT as a major strategy in my model, along with Assertivness Training and Counselling. Prior to establishing my own business I was an associate at Sheffield CBT Practice and Cornerstone Therapy Centre, both well-established practices in Sheffield.

Have you ever felt like people just didn’t get you — maybe because you’re LGBTQ+, neurodivergent, or you’ve been through bullying or abuse? It can be really isolating, and it makes sense if that’s left you feeling anxious, low, or just totally overwhelmed.
I often work with people living with the long-term impacts of bullying, domestic abuse, or trauma — including those still finding their way out. I am experienced in supporting survivors of many forms of abuse, including spiritual abuse, coercive control, complex trauma, and dissociation, including Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID). I also welcome their allies for support.

I am a Principal Clinical Psychologist and EMDR Therapist. I have been practicing in the NHS for 14+ years, and now also offer private sessions in a warm and welcoming clinic environment.

Hi. I'm Mike, a mature counsellor, based in South Yorkshire. If you're having a tough time, you don't have to go it alone. I understand that being stuck in overthinking, people-pleasing, or self-blaming is frustrating, and that such things can affect relationships. But take heart because talking to an older person like me, who accepts you as you are, can give you a sense that somebody knows what you're going through, and that there is hope after all.
