Counselling in Wells

A warm welcome to my profile. I offer a safe, non-judgmental, confidential space for my clients to be able to share their troubles, explore difficult and painful experiences and work towards a deeper understanding of themselves. My work is client led and I will support you in whatever you bring to our sessions. Aswell as working as an Integrative counsellor I am a Recovery worker for a local organisation supporting people with addiction issues and have done so for 8 years, during these roles I have supported clients with anxiety/depression, self-harm, domestic abuse, childhood sexual abuse, trauma, shame and bereavement.

Are you exhausted by the effort it takes to manage your feelings? Do you want to feel safe? Do you wonder who you are or why you feel bad? Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, low self esteem, panic disorders or relationship problems, there is good news. Research has shown that a good relationship with a counsellor/therapist can really help. My approach is to help you understand both 'your hidden self' (the unconscious) and find everyday tools and tasks that can help you change your life. I hope I can show you that all the wisdom and creativity you need to enjoy your life is within reach.

I am a Relate trained relationship counsellor experienced at working with couples and individuals at every stage in a relationship. Alongside my private practice I currently work as a relationship counsellor and psychosexual therapist Relate Avon, which is part of the UK’s largest provider of relationship counselling and sex therapy. I offer friendly effective counselling for couples and individuals currently via Zoom or over the phone.

Would you like to feel less fearful, not be held back by your thoughts, to feel more at ease in yourself and with others, and experience more confidence? Maybe you'd like to better understand how past experiences may be impacting you in the present, and how to change familiar and unhelpful patterns to improve your relationships? With skilled and focused support all of this is possible! You are unique so I aim to work with your experiences in a way that is suited to you. I work with a range of issues and have a particular passion for working with anger, depressive feelings, and communication issues that impede relationships.

Hi, I'm Elaine. I'm a child & adolescent therapist & counsellor who supports children, teens & their families to manage big feelings, stressful situations and other life challenges. I work with children & young people aged 6-18 (as well as some adults) and support them with a huge range of issues from anxiety and worries about school, fostering and adoption, to trauma, bereavement, sexual abuse and domestic violence, covering pretty much everything you can think of in-between. I'm an accredited therapist who offers play & creative arts therapy, TraumaPlay and talking therapy. I have a therapy dog who loves to be involved.

I am an experienced dual-trained Consultant Clinical Psychologist and Management Consultant, spending 28 years working in the NHS and private settings, working organisationally with executive and senior teams, and clinically with children, young people, adults and colleagues in the NHS. I have worked with people with trauma, acquired brain injury, autism spectrum disorder, and mental health difficulties (such as anxiety, depression, eating disorders, phobias). I have also worked in independent practice for the past 15 years offering psychological assessment, psychological therapy and medico legal assessments for Court.

Hi, welcome, you may be here because you're struggling at the moment, and maybe you experienced some hardships in the past, but would like to change how things are for you, and build a better life now. Counselling may last 4 - 6 sessions or longer and is helpful for anyone who is suffering with anything from moderate anxiety to severe distress. Whether what you're going through at the moment is a new situation, or you've felt this way for a long time, talking can help you to resolve how you would like to make positive changes so that you can cope better and feel happier overall. Everyone needs extra support sometimes, including you.

I have a lot of experience in working with anxiety, relationship boundaries, and self esteem. I am passionate about working with people who wish to address obsessive tendencies; namely binge eating and hoarding disorder. I prefer to work in a solution-focused and goal minded way, as it helps us both to identify how beneficial our time together is. My ideal core client group is aged between 18 and 35. I also love working with individuals who are on a spiritual journey and wish to have a reflective space to safely explore this.

I work with a wide range of anxiety and mood difficulties helping to bring about understanding and positive change. This includes depression, low esteem, panic, phobias (spiders, animals, storms, heights, emetophobia etc), social anxiety, OCD, BDD, eating disorders, health anxiety, GAD (worry), PTSD/trauma, driving anxiety, insomnia and anger/temper. I offer appointments 9am-5pm Monday to Friday.

Perhaps you’re struggling with mental health challenges such as anxiety or depression or simply feel lost or overwhelmed. These experiences are part of being human but that doesn’t make it any easier. Spending an hour per week with somebody skilled who can be there for you, somebody who teaches you ways to process and regulate your emotions, cultivates a strength and freedom in you for healing and resilience. There’s no need to stay stuck when we finally have evidence-based and effective ways to navigate and heal from trauma.

We all desire meaningfulness in our lives and we usually seek out the healing of therapy at times when life may feel challenging, difficult, directionless or overwhelming in some way. Meaningfulness is found not only in the dramatic and the intense but also in the small, subtle moments, illuminated by a curious awareness. Life contains setbacks and suffering which can feel painful and we may develop strategies to avoid and bypass such feelings. The process of therapy is to gently explore in the present the way we feel about ourselves and our lives and to bring embodied awareness to what obscures the inherent wholeness at our core.

Men are pretty bad when it comes to seeking help for health (physical or mental), preferring to sort the problems out themselves. I work within a specific 'man-friendly' approach to counselling, meaning we focus on how and where you want to be in the future and go from there, only looking back when the past blocks to you from moving on. I help you to find the best solution that fits your life circumstances, works for you and, enables you to develop the skills to cope with what life throws at you in the future. If you want a counsellor who believes in the power of conversation, humour and looking forward, let's chat.

My name Emmelaine and I am an approachable and friendly therapist. Whatever it is you are going through, you do not have to face it alone. I offer a supportive and safe space to talk. My aim is to support you in a way that honours who you are and what you need. I choose to work flexibly and without judgment, so that you can feel free to express yourself in whatever way feels most comfortable.

Are you feeling anxious, depressed, stressed, insecure, or overwhelmed by your emotions? Or are you looking for someone who will listen and be non judgemental and to whom you can talk in confidence about issues that are bothering you that would be difficult to share with friends or family members? Your feelings may be related to a bereavement or loss, the effects of abuse, relationship issues, or a major life change or may be related to something unresolved from the past. You may also be seeking support in setting goals and moving on in a positive way. These (and others) are areas in which I am well experienced.

Having a fulfilling and lasting relationship is something we all aspire to, but it isn't always easy. Relationships can go wrong for all sorts of reasons and it's difficult to know where to go for help. In my work as a sex and relationship therapist, I work with both couples and individuals to not only get your relationship back on track and improve communication, but also to help it develop so that it achieves its full potential. Often, problems in a relationship can be an opportunity to develop it so get in touch with me if you need some help either to heal a crisis or to make your relationship the best it can be.

I hold the optimistic, yet realistic belief that no matter what situation you're in or how challenging your past has been, you have the potential within you to discover constructive and effective ways to meet life’s challenges. As an experienced humanistic and integrative psychotherapist I draw on a diverse spectrum of therapeutic approaches enabling me to work with you in a flexible and considered way within the supportive boundaries of the therapeutic relationship. Over the years I've worked with people with a wide range of problems.

I have worked in the field of mental health for over 25 years, and this has afforded me the opportunity to experience and work collaboratively with clients from a range of difficulties and backgrounds, using evidence based treatments and see how effective and transformative they can be. I have extensive experience in working with anxiety and Mood disorders, such as Generalized Anxiety (Excessive worry); Social Anxiety; Panic Attacks; Phobia's (animals, weather, emetophobia etc); OCD; Eating Disorders (Bulimia, Binge Eating disorder, Restrictive Eating); PTSD; Depression and Low self esteem.
