Counselling in Sheffield

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

The bravest thing we can do when things get hard is ask for help. I have been working with people going through crises ranging from depression and anxiety to relationship break down and trauma for the last 12 years and have had the privilege of seeing people find hope even in the midst of difficulty. I work in an integrative way, incorporating aspects of cognitive-behavioural therapy, person-centred approach and attachment theory to offer clients the tools that are most useful to them. I aim to give clients a safe and confidential space to explore the causes behind their difficulties, as well as working with them to find solutions.

Are you often unhappy and anxious? Do you often feel overwhelmed or have difficulty making decisions? Do you struggle to build healthy relationships, always putting everyone else before yourself? In counselling, we will work towards developing coping skills that you can use outside of therapy to make your life better, reduce anxiety, and become more confident. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Rewind Technique can help you move forward. You can identify the patterns in your life that cause you difficulty, and learn to change those unhelpful patterns. Contact me via phone, text, or email. I am looking forward to helping.

I offer a safe and confidential space for individuals who want to talk through the difficulties or issues that they are facing. I work collaboratively and strongly believe that working together can bring about the changes and room for reflection that is often missing in day-to-day life. It is important for clients to have control over their own narrative and be heard without judgement or shame. Therapeutic change and healing take place in a warm and trusting relationship and this is the environment that I provide in my therapeutic practice.

Do you feel like you are not yourself lately? Work or study is going well but you are ‘off your game’ at times and find yourself demotivated? Maybe the idea of social gatherings makes you feel anxious? Or friends have noticed something has changed in you. This can make you feel isolated and alone like no one understands. Perhaps you are finishing study or making a career change and are unsure of where you are going now. Do you struggle to be ‘truly you’ around family and friends who judge your choices? I offer a warm, inclusive, relaxed space where you can feel safe, accepted and understood.

Does anxiety control your life? Is everything just too overwhelming? Do you, or your child struggle to 'fit 'in? Have you lost your sense of direction or purpose?, or maybe you just don't feel 'good enough'. As a Person centred counsellor I will listen without judgement, empower and support you. 'You' are the expert, this is your life, your thoughts, feelings, emotions, and behaviours are all important and extremely valid. Maybe your haunted by trauma, PTSD, phobias, bullying, nightmares or anxiety. By using Rewind therapy, together we can reframe the trauma and the fear offering you a happier, better quality of life.

My years as a GP mean I understand what it is like to feel that you are running on empty, whether in your work or home life. You may feel low, anxious or troubled. Life might seem like you are wading through treacle. You may have experienced loss: of people, of relationships, of self esteem, of purpose, of security, of youth, of health, of a job… You may be going through change, or feeling the need for change. You neither want nor deserve a prescription for an off-the-peg answer.  My role as a counsellor is to collaborate with you to find your own bespoke answer to whatever brings you to therapy.

Are you experiencing any of the following: anxiety, depression, PTSD symptoms, or phobias? Perhaps you are 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 counsellor and trauma therapist, offering therapy to individuals, couples and groups. My main approach is a type of therapy called Transactional Analysis, which can be used to help us to understand ourselves and our relationships better, and find ways to make the changes we want. I also offer EMDR, a NICE approved therapy, for PTSD, Phobias, Anxiety, and many other issues.

Welcome! . Life can be hard and challenging sometimes. The uncertain times we live give arise to anxiety, fear and often confusion. It might help to talk to explore your inner landscape and be supported in your understanding and choices that might be open to you. It takes courage sometimes to live life- change always take great courage. Psychotherapy is a collaborative journey where I help you into a different, perhaps more satisfying relationship with yourself. You might want to set goals, heal past hurts, find new ways of dealing the past and prepare for a different future.

Hi my work with children and young people has enabled me to adopt a common sense approach. I practise Integrative Counselling, that means I use CBT, Person Centred, Pyschodynamic, etc, concepts. Which are the building blocks of thoughts and beliefs which affect how we feel. I understand the first step in seeking counselling is hard, if you have sought support, you may not know how to effect change it’s at this point we explore choices.

For some time now you might have been struggling to make sense of how you are feeling and wish to talk things through with a professional. This could relate to difficulties with your mood and some behaviours you are not happy with and want to explore and work on these. Perhaps this was because of a recent event, or something that is related to your early childhood experiences, or even a combination of different life circumstances. You may be thinking that despite already seeking help for some of the issues that you have been facing, you feel unfulfilled and think that something is missing in terms of healing.

Hello I am Claire & I am a Counsellor based in Sheffield. My aim is to help you to work through what you feel is holding you back, this may be a life event, relationship difficulty, or a sense of feeling that you are battling with yourself. I provide a supportive space where you can gain new perspectives & develop a route out of the difficulties at your own pace. This may be to reduce the struggle you have with your emotions or explore unhelpful patterns you notice in your life. You may be seeking to make a change or to work out what is preventing you from moving forward.

Someone starting therapy may not know what their needs are, this can be part of the journey of discovery. I believe in the therapeutic relationship which empowers people to find their own understanding of themselves and their situation. Together we work on a safe space to bring the possibility of understanding and growth.

I explore women's issues in the context of their life, helping them be heard and find their own narrative and voice. My specialist area is neuro-divergence and have developed a coaching model to work with people whose ADHD or ASD make balancing the demands of life challenging. I also work with adults and students training or working in the NHS, doctors, nurses and other front line professionals. These sessions may include reflective practice, recovering from trauma and stress related issues.

I've worked with clients on different video platforms for years both locally and internationally. As a therapist, I seek to be a companion to you when you face a challenge, hardship, or creative block. I feel honoured to have the opportunity to accompany you when you explore these places and search for meaning, wellbeing and new strength

Hi, I'm an integrative counsellor and I draw from relational approaches including person centred, with the aim to create conditions of trust, safety and honesty and a collaborative working relationship where clients might feel free to establish and work towards their own goals. I value difference and individuality and may draw on a number of other approaches to best fit the person or the presenting issue. Counselling may feel like a big step and it can feel challenging but it can also help to enhance self-awareness, self-understanding and begin to create the possibility for different choices, or simply self-acceptance.
