Hi, my name is Mark Shanagher and I am a senior trainee in private practice on Dartington Estate, Totnes.
My approach is collaborative and relational. I am interested in working with you to explore how it is that you ‘do’ you, in what your experience is and in how you might begin to express and experience yourself differently. I have seen how transformation can take place in a setting of compassion, acceptance and non-judgemental listening, and value these qualities in our working relationship.

I am available in person, online and if the need arises due to disability or other medical concerns a home visit may be possible.
I can help with many common troubles, such as anxiety, depression, pain, emotion regulation, self-worth, panic attacks, identity worries, family life, attachment, trauma, abuse and more. Many of the clients I have worked with needed help in seeing, accepting and loving their true self. Often these have been young people and adults with a divergent neurotype, whose feelings and authenticity have been masked for far too long.

I do my best to meet with each person as the individual you are, and work together with you to find what helps you to explore, understand and transform whatever issues brought you to Counselling. I am an Integrative Counsellor, meaning I have studied a number of different approaches and tools. Listening to you and exploring your experience together, I seek to be creative, flexible and playful in finding what is helpful to you.

My name is Talya. At the heart of how I work is the belief that everyone's choices and experiences are understandable if we give the time and attention to understanding them. When we are supported it becomes more possible to gain insight into the ways we feel limited, to acknowledge and release the feelings that can keep us stuck and to find new ways of being. Therapy can provide a chance to heal from the hurts that accumulate within us and help us find the resources to meet life fully. Through our time together, you may find that new ways of relating to yourself and the world around you become possible.

I work with adults and young people and offer both short and long term therapy. Sometimes life’s challenges may feel overwhelming, emotionally exhausting or relentless and we may seek professional support to help us find our way through. Anxiety, depression, feeling lost, lonely, confused or traumatised are just some of the many issues people bring. Whilst our personal stories and the reasons for our distress are ultimately as unique as we are, I have found that clients of all ages share a common goal; the desire to gain new perspectives and deeper understandings of themselves and to explore the possibilities and means of change.

Do you feel your potential in life is thwarted by past or present difficulties or trauma? Has your equilibrium, confidence and self esteem been undermined by this? Do you feel disempowered and unable to move forward? Sometimes, life's difficulties can prevent us from forming healthy relationships with ourselves and others, and prevent us thriving in life and work, and block creativity. I am a UKCP Psychotherapist in training, working to support people suffering with mental and emotional distress find more ease, balance, meaning and health.

We are all on our individual journeys and there are times when it can be helpful to share and talk through some of the issues that arise along the way. I can offer you a safe, confidential space in which you can begin to explore some of the issues you are facing. I can offer short or long term counselling, in person, online or on the telephone. I also offer a free initial session so that we can meet and decide whether we would like to work together with no obligation.

Hi, my name is Chrissie and I am an Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS) therapist and a Conscious Connected Breathwork Therapist (a therapy that enables access to altered states of consciousness to support and facilitate your therapeutic journey- legally). There are alot of therapies/therapists out there and it is important to find a good fit for you personally. Recently I have begun to offer conscious connected breathwork on it's own or alongside weekly therapy. This type of breathwork helps us to heal emotionally and energetically, and is a great support on our path to awakening/ to wholeness.

I offer a welcoming space when times are difficult; you may need someone to talk to about relationship issues, support with feeling low or anxious, or maybe you'd like to explore feelings about your past. I provide a neuro-affirming space; whether you have a formal diagnosis or are self-diagnosed. My experience includes supporting teenagers, as well as adults. I also have an interest in supporting parents, including those with premature babies; something I have personal experience of. We can work together to help you feel less stressed or worried, to find more balance in life, to notice your strengths, and discover coping skills.
