Anxiety Counselling in York

Hello, and welcome to my page in this directory. I am a highly qualified and experienced clinical psychologist located near the centre of York. Prior to working full time in private practice I worked as a clinical psychologist in NHS mental health services for 14years. I offer individual therapy to adults (across the age range) with a wide range of difficulties including: anxiety , panic , depression, low mood, trauma, emotional neglect, stress, grief, self-esteem and relationship problems. Please see my website for more details of how I work.

Life can be difficult, full of uncertainties and challenges, which can naturally leave us at times feeling distressed, overwhelmed, confused or alone. When we are feeling high levels of stress or anxiety it can be difficult to make sense of what is happening to us or how to move forward, sometimes it can be completely debilitating and frightening. At times we simply need space to explore a situation, a relationship or our sense of self. Whatever your reason for seeking therapy at this time, I would like to offer you a safe, compassionate space to explore what you need to and help you find a way forward that feels right for you.

If you are experiencing difficulties that are impacting on your life and have decided to take the step to access some help to make a change to your life, then I can help you. I specialise in working with individuals experiencing difficulties due to depression, anxiety and trauma, drawing upon my skills as an Accredited Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist, an EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing) Practitioner and Interpersonal Psychotherapist for Depression (IPT). I work with an individual to help them gain a better understanding of themselves, their difficulties and strategies improve how they feel.

As a BACP registered counsellor and Lecturer at York St John University, I am experienced in working with people with a range of issues. These include anxiety and depression, grief/loss, addictions, major life events or unprocessed trauma from childhood. You may be struggling to understand your feelings, going through a difficult life transition or having difficulties in relationships with others. I help you find a way through your problems and to take positive steps forward in your life that are right for you.

Hello, I’m Katie, welcome to my profile. So how can I help? Maybe you're struggling with emotional stress? Feeling stuck? A loss of purpose and direction in life? Experiencing the effects of a bereavement or trauma? There are many reasons why you may be seeking counselling. Talking to family and friends can often help but it's not the same as sharing your concerns with a trained professional. I specialise in helping people find a way to manage anxiety , rebuild self-confidence and overcome life's obstacles.

I work with women who may be feeling overwhelmed by any challenges they are currently facing. I offer a warm and supportive space in which you can share your unique story and together we can explore your concerns to gain different perspectives. I have experience of supporting women through life's challenges including seeking to understand the impact that past trauma has on their life, anxiety , depression, bereavement, domestic abuse, sexual abuse, family issues, self-esteem, transitions, menopause and fertility issues.

Life can feel tough and challenging at times. This may be following a specific life event, a change of circumstance, or for reasons completely unexpected or unknown. When we are struggling with something difficult we can often feel unhappy, confused, anxious or overwhelmed, with a sense of feeling stuck and unsure of where to start or what to do. Whatever your reason for accessing therapy, I believe that we all have the capacity for change and positive personal growth and that counselling can support you to bring about the change you want by helping you to find ways of placing yourself back in control.

I offer two Therapeutic counselling rooms in a calm non- judgmental space for you to bring your life experiences and feelings. We all experience difficulties in life sitting with us from the past or present and over time can impact on us in our daily life such as increased levels of Anxiety , stress and avoidance. Counselling can be a way for you to explore these issues and for us together find a way to help you through this and gain self- awareness to discover the changes you want to make in life. In the process to find out more about yourself through your journey.

Are things getting on top of you, so that your day to day living is a struggle, and your relationships with others are strained? Do you feel like past, or current, events are effecting how you cope with life today? I help people feel more confidence in their relationships by identifying the hurdles that are holding them back. I help people to find peace of mind by managing their anxiety or low mood. I support people through their bereavement to enable them to enjoy life again. Let me help you to make sense of your difficulties, so that you can connect more positively with your loved ones and the world.

I work with children and teenagers aged 11 and over who are experiencing anxiety . Managing anxiety requires motivation, effort and skills and we work on this in therapy. I’ll help your child recognise, understand and navigate the process of anxiety so they can handle however it shows up for them. I’ll help them practice and master body and brain-based skills that develop bravery and resilience so they can make the shift from perceiving experiences as threatening to seeing them as a challenge they’re willing to engage with.

Do you ever notice a feeling of dread at the day ahead or that you’re constantly worrying and berating yourself? Do you struggle with sleep, or sleep too much but still wake up feeling exhausted? Do you find yourself playing over conversations, picking apart the things that you said and how people responded, worrying about what they think of you? How would you like to feel happier, more confident and energised? To sleep better, look forward to your days and be kinder to yourself? These are just some of the areas I can help you with.

I am a Mental Health Nurse and Cognitive Behavioural (CBT) therapist with 15 years' experience in counselling and psychotherapy. ​ I am based centrally in Harrogate and am an accredited member of the BABCP. ​

I work with individuals who are struggling with all kinds of issues, such as depression, anxiety and stress, questions of identity, personality problems, relationship issues, bereavement, addictions, abuse, anger management and many other difficulties. Sometimes problems can be difficult to articulate, like feeling lost, confused, or like something just isn’t right. Often we can face problems that feel so ingrained that we might feel there can’t be a solution. We might feel ‘it’s just who I am’.

I am interested in hearing what brings you to counselling. Our sessions are about you, together we find the direction to work in. My experience is varied, and I have worked successfully with a range of client issues from anxiety and emotional disturbance, depression to helping make changes in behaviour patterns.
