Counselling in Wakefield

Hi - my name is Becky, and I’m passionate about people and supporting them on their own personal journeys, helping them gain clarity around what’s going on in their life, and improving their mental health and wellbeing. I use what’s referred to as a person-centred approach, which is where you are central to the process of therapy. I create a safe, calm, and impartial environment to help you identify and explore the challenges you face, develop a better understanding of your situation, and facilitate change to deal with this in the future.

I have worked as mental health clinician and Psychotherapist for 12 years within Local Authority, NHS, private and charity sectors providing an array of therapy and treatments. I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults from vast and diverse backgrounds. If you’re feeling like you’re in need of extra support with your mental health, goals, explore and process trauma, engage in EMDR, DBT, CBT skill work or person centred counselling or psychotherapy approach then get in touch.

I understand therapy can feel really daunting and scary at times, the good news is that you are looking here to make a start. We are not designed to figure out life and all its complexities alone. We can see and experience a lot in our lives and that can have a significant impact on us. It can be exhausting but it doesn't have to be like that. You deserve happiness and emotional freedom and I can help you to achieve that. I am relational and supportive in my style and create a bespoke therapy suited for the individual/couple using several evidence-based interventions to help improve your psychological and emotional well-being.

Finding the right therapist for counselling in itself can be a journey so thank you for taking the time to look through what I can offer you. I offer face to face sessions from my room in Wakefield and I can also offer telephone counselling. Please feel free to e mail me for any more information or call for an assessment.

I am committed to creating a therapeutic space that is collaborative and non-judgmental and draws on a number of evidence-based models to best suit the needs of each client allowing them to make sense of their difficulties and adopt new ways to cope.

Hello, my name is Lucy and I am an integrative counselor/psychotherapist. My therapeutic practice is based largely on the relational approach, this means I place great emphasis on the relationship between you and I as it is our relationship which becomes the vehicle for your therapeutic journey. Each person is unique and I will draw on modalities that I feel will most suit you and the issues that you present to me. During our sessions I would like you to have as much autonomy as possible but I shall also give direction should you need it.

Hi, I offer person centred therapy to adults, couples and young people over 12 years of age. My appointment start from 8am with evening appointments also available. I understand that It can take a lot to reach out for help especially when you are at your lowest point, so I want to offer the time and space to talk freely about the things that are troubling you. I aim to help my clients gain confidence in their own decisions and choices. Empowering them to make the changes they want and gain a greater understanding of their own thoughts and feelings. This self awareness can help people to thrive in all areas of their lives.

Sometimes life can throw up unexpected challenges and we find that things that wouldn't normally bother us do. You may find yourself stuck, and unable to move forward; to make the change you so badly desire. It may be that you find yourself feeling anxious, depressed or stressed leaving you constantly worrying and struggling to sleep. Perhaps, you are having problems at work or in your relationships, or maybe you have suffered at the hands of others which impacts on your emotions and behaviours now. If any of this resonates with you, counselling can help develop the self-awareness you need and give you the tools to move you forward.

Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile. We all need support in life and at times, we reach out to therapy to provide us with that support. Therapy can help us to understand complex emotions, behaviours, or to learn more about ourselves. Sometimes it is just nice to talk to someone who is hearing and feeling what is going on for you. I can offer you a non-judgemental space to explore whatever it is you need support with. Together, we can work through your fears, your difficult memories or whatever is hindering you in life.

There are times in life that can feel complicated, difficult and too overwhelming to deal with on your own. You may be struggling with feelings of burnout, or a heaviness you’re not fully sure how to explain. Perhaps you’re noticing difficulties in your relationships or are struggling with an ending such as separation or bereavement. Maybe you have noticed yourself worrying more than usual and you are experiencing low mood or anxiety. It may be that you have recognised a specific issue that you would like to explore more or you may have experienced a trauma that you feel unable to move past and would like support to work through it.
