Divorce Counselling in York

Hello and welcome to my profile. I'm Tayba and I am trained as an integrative counsellor, but also work primarily from a trauma-informed and relational perspective. I tend to employ several other approaches based on what your need is and what is right for you, such as an embodied approach. I work with a range of issues such as anxiety, depression, faith and cultural conflict, domestic abuse, sexual abuse, divorce , self-harm and bullying. The list is not exhaustive but should give you an idea of the range of issues I am able to help and support you with.

Empowering men to navigate life's challenges with confidence and clarity. Talking Spaces is an accessible counselling specialist service for men’s mental health, available in person or via Zoom. Generally men by nature are more action focused, so when it comes to managing difficult life events and emotions I use action and solution based therapeutic approaches and interventions when working with men’s mental health issues. Men need a service with the knowledge understand that social and cultural norms and ingrained beliefs about masculinity are one of the main barriers to seeking counselling in the first place.

I am a Consultant Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years of experience working with children, adolescents and adults with a wide range of emotional, behavioural and mental health difficulties. My approach is warm, friendly and professional, and I would never judge you or your problems, no matter how big or small they are.

I've worked with variety of individuals and groups age 13-60 yrs old.

I also work in supporting people for specific purposes such as; to improve self-esteem / self care, to develop social / coping skills, to explore sexuality, to regain strength and more.

I am an experienced counsellor of more than 10 years, providing counselling for couples and individuals in York. I offer a warm and open environment to explore, together, some of the difficulties or experiences that may have brought you to counselling. Couples counselling need not be a sign of breaking up. Instead, Couples Counselling provides a safe, neutral space for those who are struggling in their relationship, or wish to address a range of relationship issues. It has the potential to resolve past hurt and present conflict. Attending sessions together can initiate a more productive way of communicating.

Welcome I am a registered MBACP accredited Counsellor/psychotherapist. I am qualified in several modalities of therapy - meaning I can integrate a range of interventions to support you. I work with individuals, couples, families, children and young people. I offer online appointments and face to face appointments in York and Thirsk. I also offer walk and talk sessions in York and Thirsk. I specialise in relationship and psychosexual therapy, trauma and PTSD. If you are experiencing difficulties and would like to talk in confidence, I'm here by your side to support you and help you move forward at your pace.

Are you feeling anxious, lost or depressed?  Are you struggling to make sense of your life?  Are you finding interactions with other people difficult or confusing?  Have you recently lost someone or something important to you?  Do you find everyday life exhausting or wonder when you will feel like 'yourself' again? Sometimes we all need a helping hand to navigate the things that life throws at us, and sometimes our bodies and minds react in ways that we struggle to understand - I aim to offer you the space to explore these issues with someone who will not judge anything you talk about. I see clients at the weekend and Mondays only.

I work with individual clients and we create a growthful and supportive relationship together. I meet a wide range of issues; most recently I seem to be working with relational difficulties with partners & in family, with anxieties of many types, and with low mood & depression. See my website at www.counsellingyork.com for lots more information.

I am a BACP registered Integrative Psychotherapeutic Counsellor and I am trained in Transactional Analysis. I will listen to what you tell me, and we will work together to tailor an appropriate approach drawing from a variety of theoretical models to support you as you explore what is happening for you. You are the expert on yourself, and this is key as we develop a relationship.Central to my work is feeling safe, heard and seen, honesty and being valued.Through the time we spend there will be a myriad of feelings and emotions, we may laugh or cry, we may be quiet or simply offload.Most of all you will be accepted just as you are.

Are you feeling stuck, caught in two minds, not quite in control? I'm sure you've heard the story of Goldilocks- she finds the 3 bears' porridge, chairs and beds and tests each one until she discovers the ones that are 'just right' for her. Well, just like Goldilocks, we all have many different 'just rights', from how hot we like our porridge, to how fast we like to drive, to how truthful or honest we want to be. Sometimes we can balance and achieve all our different 'just rights,' and life feels good. However, sometimes our 'just rights' can be challenging to balance, they might even be in conflict, and life feels hard.

You may be seeking help for a number of reasons: You may be feeling unhappy or angry without understanding why; you may be feeling anxious or depressed; you may be experiencing mood swings which are difficult to manage; you may be experiencing hallucinations. Whatever your problem, you are in distress and looking for help in restoring your sense of well-being. As a Clinical Psychologist, trained in a variety of different therapeutic modalities, I will explore with you the reasons for your distress, and agree a programme of treatment adapted to your particular needs.

The counselling I provide offers you the time and space that so many of us need but often lack, especially when life becomes hard or you feel less able to cope as you once did. You may be struggling with depression, low mood, anxiety, low self-esteem, a relationship breakdown, bereavement, or perhaps there is no label that can best describe where you are at right now. Whatever the case and wherever you are at, I offer a safe, confidential and non-judgmental environment for you to begin your counselling journey.

What has brought you here? Are you struggling with past trauma affecting you in the present? Are you discovering who you are at your core? On a journey with neurodivergence? Wanting to explore OCD behaviours and tackle them? Regain control of your life? These are a few of my specialist areas that I work with, but not limited to. I’m an integrative therapist which means I don’t think there is one approach that can help clients in all situations. Instead, I look at you as an individual from a holistic approach, looking at your environment, who and what’s around you, and tailor an approach which would be beneficial to you.

Life, in all of its complexity, can be challenging, and our experience of our own thoughts and emotions can cause us distress which can be difficult to alleviate and understand. I’m sorry if you are struggling at the moment. I would like you to know that there is always hope and that life can become easier over time, despite how difficult this may be to currently imagine. I understand that reaching out to a psychologist can feel daunting, and that simply looking for a therapist can take courage.

I'm a registered Psychotherapist and Counsellor. I work with Children, Adolescents, Adults and also offer support to families. I've worked in the field for 9 years and have worked with the NHS, for charities and also as Clinical Lead managing a service in the North East. My background is in Psychology. Whilst I am passionate about research in the field and best practice, I am also a warm, approachable practitioner who is able to put prospective clients at ease. I understand how daunting coming to see a Counsellor or therapist can be.

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.

Are you feeling anxious and distressed? At times do you get frustrated, irritated or angry? Do you have painful unwanted memories or struggle to sleep? Are you feeling sad, low or numb? Are you feeling alone or that no one understands you? Are you feeling overwhelmed and struggling to cope? Do you want to feel calmer and more in control? Do you want to understand how your body is reacting and why you can't think straight? Do you want to cope better on a day-to-day basis. As a qualified integrative, relational counsellor I am able to be alongside you and help you to understand your experience.
