I am an experienced Women focused Counsellor, who has worked in various sectors over my 20yr career. I have a depth of experience in offering therapeutic trauma spaces to explore issues arising, working in an integrative, compassion focused way to develop the therapeutic relationship. I work creatively with individual need allowing a range of therapeutic processes. EMDR is a part of my practice using varying means to explore 'stuck memories'. Working in a EMDR process helps move memories quickly and focuses on primary memories I aim to work within community costing as therapy is something we should all have access to.

Those with histories of trauma and abuse, seeking to understand how difficult past experiences might be impacting them today.

Those wanting to meet all parts of themselves; their hopes, creativity, ideas and agency, as well as their darkness, shame, fears and impulses. People exploring neurodiverse, bi-cultural, queer and trans identities and those exploring relationship models such as polyamory.

As a humanistic-integrative counsellor and supervisor+, I take the view that there is no single approach that can treat every client, in all situations. I therefore offer an approach to counselling that combines different elements of several specific therapies so as to enable me to provide the appropriate interventions for each individual. I believe each person is an 'unique whole' and counselling techniques are best tailored to fit the unique individuals needs and personal circumstances. It is of primary importance to me that I offer you highly confidential service based on you as an individual in your distinctive circumstances.

I mainly work with LGBTQ+ adults who wish to meet a counsellor where those aspects of their identity will not be unnecessarily questioned or looked at, but can be spoken about respectfully and safely. I aim to offer you a sense of hope and empowerment, along with techniques you could use in your life to enhance or help you feel more in control. I can support you to explore whatever is going on in your life such as autism, ADHD (no formal diagnosis needed), stress, grief (including loss of pets), exploring gender identity, exploring sexuality or asexual identity, body image, anxiety, depression and workplace issues.

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or trapped in cycles of low mood, anxiety, or burnout? You may be struggling to make sense of past trauma and how it shapes your challenges today. Together we will equip you with the skills to improve your mental well-being and overall quality of life. As a practitioner psychologist my skillset spans a variety of domains. I currently carry out private psychological therapy work (adults), Autism diagnostic assessments for adults/children/young people, core needs assessments for children/young people and I have also worked within an inpatient service for individuals with the most acute mental health needs.

Hello, I'm Zareeda and I work with people on issues ranging from rape and sexual abuse to stress, bereavement, anxiety and depression. If you are struggling to find meaning in life you may be feeling disconnected from yourself and/or those around you. This loss of contact with yourself, your needs, values and beliefs may decrease your trust in your ability to form and build meaningful relationships and achieve personal goals.

I work with people who feel a bit stuck, a bit lost, or just a bit “what even is this?” I specialise in supporting LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent professionals who are juggling too much and feeling too little. We’ll make sense of things together—without judgement, jargon, or awkward silences. Therapy with me is about making sense of the mess, the mood swings, the “why am I like this?” moments. We talk. We laugh (sometimes). We gently poke at the hard stuff—grief, identity, low self-worth, burnout—and figure out what’s underneath.

In 2015, when I qualified as a psychotherapist, I remember saying to my tutor, "I believe in all the theories. What kind of therapist do I need to become?" His answer was simple: "Integrative." He explained that being an integrative therapist wasn't simply about learning different theories. It meant continually exploring my own life, remaining open to new research and never stopping learning. I committed to that journey because I believed something very strongly: How could I ask clients to look deeply at themselves if I wasn't willing to do the same?

Hi there, my names Dane, I am an animal lover, Northerner, book-worm, rock climber... and Clinical Psychologist! I it can be hard to find a therapist who you can click with. My work follows a Narrative Therapy approach. I also bring elements of Compassion-Focused Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy where needed. I am trained in 3 Trauma therapies (EMDR, NET & Tree of Life). For Relationships, I blend System Theory with EFT/NVC/The Gottmans Approach with a twist of Queer Theory. There’s no single map for being human, I take a ‘many paths up the mountain’ approach, adapting the route to suit you.

I often collaborate with people who define as highly sensitive, neurodivergent or alternative in some way. You may think, feel and experience the world differently and that can come with huge ups and downs. Perhaps you look around and wonder how everyone else seems to be holding it together when you feel and think so deeply. Perhaps you get stuck in patterns of thinking and behaving that no longer help. I get it - life is often messy, unpredictable, and confusing, and at times it can feel like the cliff of overwhelm and burnout looms large. Curious about change in your life, work and relationships? Then lets connect!
