Trauma and PTSD Counselling in York

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 overwhelmed and struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, low self esteem, and finding it difficult to control your emotions? sometimes we need support to explore our thoughts and feelings to enable us to understand the root cause of our problems and then carefully look at strategies that can change our situation and improve our ability to cope more effectively. I am an Accredited EMDR practitioner and have over 18 years experience working with the British military and civilians presenting with PTSD .

Hi, I'm Sarah. I specialise in trauma/ PTSD , anxiety and depression, physical health conditions, spirituality and sexual and relationship problems. I am very experienced in third wave CBT, the trauma therapies (including EMDR) and energy psychology. I am polyamory, BDSM and kink aware. I am sex positive and supportive of diverse relationship orientations, sexualities and lifestyles.

We may find it helpful to talk problems through with someone close to us, but sometimes friends and family can not help and we need to speak to a professional therapist. I will spend time talking with you to understand your difficulties and to help you identify the roots of your problem and identify what you want to change in your life. In doing so we can find a way to work together to help you to reach your goals. ​I have worked with issues surrounding, anxiety, depression, trauma (including PTSD ), low self esteem, stress, emotional management difficulties, phobias, OCD, relationship difficulties, and grief.

Most people, at some point in their lives, experience emotional difficulties. This may be due to traumatic events, overload of stress, or issues stemming back to childhood. Talking through such difficulties can help to validate and make sense of your feelings, work out how to heal, and move on with positivity and meaning in your life.

Hi, I'm Maisie and I specialise in EMDR therapy for birth and postnatal trauma. I also offer therapy for people who are struggling to adjust to parenthood. I understand the transition to becoming a parent can be difficult, even without experiencing birth trauma. Our children are mirrors of us and difficult childhood experiences can often come to the surface when you become a parent yourself. EMDR can help you process any difficult feelings that may have come to the surface for you. I offer a gentle, collaborative, down to earth approach to therapy.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious or unhappy? Have you noticed difficult or upsetting thoughts? With many years of experience helping people to overcome negative and unhelpful patterns, I can help you find new skills, knowledge and techniques to make lasting meaningful change. I work together with my clients to understand how their psychological issues developed, what is maintaining them and how they can be overcome. I aim to provide an empathic, safe and supportive environment for clients to explore emotional difficulties.

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 Practitioner and compassion focused therapy. I work with you to help you gain a better understanding of yourself, difficulties, and strategies to improve how you feel. I offer a warm and confidential space where you can talk openly about your feelings without fear of criticism.

Are you feeling out of sync with the world and other people? You may be going through a bereavement or significant life changes, feeling anxious, depressed, lonely, confused, misunderstood or be living with Post Traumatic Stress ( PTSD ) or Long Covid. I can help you reconnect to yourself and others. I can support you with the things that are holding you back as well as help you make more sense of the new world around you. I help you work with the body and mind together - a more effective way to stabilise and rebuild after a traumatic time as well as enable new insights and change - than bringing your pain up over and over again.

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.

Welcome to my profile and thank you for stopping by. I’m guessing you’re here because you think it might be time to tackle your problems. You’re tired of the status quo and would love to achieve positive change. Having worked therapeutically with people since 1999, I have lots of experience of treating a whole range of issues, and have supported many people to achieve the health and well-being they always dreamed of. Sometimes it’s hard to believe that change is possible, particularly if the problem’s been around for a long time. I’m here to tell you that, with our mutual hard work and dedication, it really is within your reach.

I offer friendly and down to earth counselling for young people (11yrs+) and adults, as well as supervison for counsellors and trainees. I specialise in working with anxiety, panic attacks, trauma, flashbacks, abuse, suicidal thoughts, and sexual violence. However, this does not mean you have had to experience any of these to have counselling. It may be that you feel a bit down, or you've had a loss, a change in circumstance, or a difficult relationship, or want to reflect on your life. There are so many reasons to get counselling and you don’t have to wait until it all feels a bit ‘too much’.

If you are experiencing a difficult time right now, or have been thinking about talking to a professional about your problems, I can provide you with a safe and non-judgmental space to do this. Perhaps you have been feeling overwhelmed, confused or anxious? Maybe you find it difficult to control your emotions, find it hard to stop thinking in a certain way or feel low? I can help you to explore these issues and in doing so we can agree a way forward to help you feel better, more in control and confident about moving on in your life.
