Counselling in Whitley Bay

Hello, I’m Dr Sonia Pace, Consultant Clinical Psychologist. I have over 12 years experience working with adults with a range of psychological and mental health difficulties. I work collaboratively with you each step of the way creating a supportive environment that enables self-discovery and growth. Therapy involves creating a safe space to develop a greater understanding of why you might be experiencing current difficulties and then using this understanding to tailor an approach that meets your individual needs.

I offer a flexible and collaborative approach, with deep empathy for my clients. I am an experienced Psychological Therapist and have worked in mental health services for 20 years, beginning with education support, then working in hospitals and in patient settings. I have worked in the NHS, voluntary sector and for private healthcare providers. I hold a postgraduate diploma in cognitive behavioural therapy, a Master of science in psychology and Mental health, a postgraduate diploma in mental health studies and a Master of Arts in psychology.

Many of us can be our own harshest critic...never feeling good enough, never feeling as if we are "enough", not wanted or unloveable...these thoughts understandably have a big impact on our wellbeing and day to day functioning. It's not just you that feels this way - many of us struggle with these thoughts and feelings at times, but particularly if we've experienced adversity or trauma, this may have become the "norm" in the way we think about ourselves. But this can change. And when we start to think about ourselves and relate differently to ourselves, the world feels like a much better place!

I am a BACP registered therapist who works in-person, online, and now offers walk and talk sessions from Whitley Bay. As an integrative counsellor I uses a variety of approaches and techniques to tailor therapy to best meet your individual needs. These often include (CBT) and Compassion Focused therapy, and are underpinned by a supportive and empathic therapeutic relationship. Whatever brings you into therapy, I will help you to more deeply understand the problem and yourself, and help you gain clarity needed to make positive changes in yourself and your life. This maybe having a more loving and accepting relationship with yourself.

Hi there! I offer a compassionate space for individuals to navigate their own unique pathways of growth. I work with individuals who find they have identified the following difficulties: traumatic histories, shame, self-criticism, personality difficulties, high stress, distress tolerance, and managing or regulating difficult emotions. You may find that you are reliving memories of terrible events of the past. Maybe you are constantly speaking down to yourself and it hinders you from achieving your goals? Or maybe you are finding that your emotions are just too much? If any of these sound like you, get in touch - I'd love to help.

We all struggle at some point in our lives and there is benefit in seeking some help to move forwards and get past what is holding us back. Professional psychology sessions can fundamentally change things within a short number of sessions (6-16). I work with people who have any presentation of symptoms, experiences or unexplained ongoing physical or neurological symptoms. I work with trauma - which is what we can be left with following challenging relationships or difficult life events.

I am a Consultant Nurse currently on a career break, an accredited EMDR consultant and clinical supervisor. I specialise in working with co-morbid physical and mental health problems, although I work with people with everything from mild anxiety to complex trauma. I also have training in DBT, NLP, Hypnosis and am an accredited EFT practitioner. I believe that the mind and body are closely connected and one has to heal using the body and the mind to get the best benefit.

A front line War Veteran whose been through some shit, both in the military and in my private life. It's fair to say I am not your stereotypical counsellor, what I am is just some guy who has struggled at times and as a result of those struggles went to university and got my BA Honours degree in Counselling in order to be able to help others understand their shit and get through it, "fall down seven times stand up eight".
