Counselling in England

Hi, my name is Natasha I am an Intuitive Counsellor. I work in helping you connect within and to listen to your own intuition. By becoming aware of our own thoughts and behaviors, we start to understand how the mind works. Breathing and grounding into the present moment helps us too connect within and to start seeing the difference between our mind and our heart. Letting go of the conditioned mind and following our authentic self.

Before I tell you a little about myself and the ways I can support you, I’m wondering if you have heard of the ‘Wounded Healer’. Psychoanalyst, Carl Jung created the archetype to explain why counsellors counsel others. He said that many of those in the healing professions have been wounded in the past and by working through their concerns and understanding more their own personal 'wounds' they desire to help others who may be dealing and suffering with similar life struggles. It makes sense, right? To want to help and support others going through similar life challenges that one understands either first-hand or empathetically.

I am a Principal Clinical Psychologist, registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC). I have worked within many NHS adult (post 16) mental health settings including community, forensic, hospital, as well as, specialist personality disorder services and learning disability services. I have a wide range of experience which includes working with relational difficulties, personality difficulties, trauma, low mood, anxiety and difficulties regulating emotions.

With a vast multidisciplinary background, I propose various types of therapy adapted to the pace and needs of each person, providing active, welcoming and empathic listening.A brief results-based therapy to cope with the demands of modern life, recommended to solve a wide range of problems such as unexpected events, depression,anxiety, lack of self-esteem,burnout,etc.I will assist you in discovering your inner resources for conflict resolution.I also propose a psychoanalytic therapy where we can work more deeply and generate a broad knowledge of oneself, helping to unburden feelings that have been stored, to act more consciously.

We offer help informed by the most recent research, to relieve distress, improve your life, and achieve your potential. We are trained in a range of therapies, to offer you an evidence-based approach, tailored to your needs. We set up the London Centre for Applied Psychology because we believe that getting help when you feel overwhelmed should be as normal as going to your GP when you have a persistent cough, or unexplained pain. Therapy and coaching work: the overall effect size for therapy is larger than the success rate for flu vaccines; and 75 percent of people who come to therapy are better off than those who don’t.

Hello, and welcome to my profile. Being an experienced counsellor of 15 years, I can support you to heal and grow. Counselling is not just about the 'problem', but also about your self awareness, your personal self development and strengthening your ability to cope when times are tough. Anxiety, depression, addictions, relationships challenges, low self esteem, intrusive thoughts, overthinking, to name but a few, are all reactions of your own life experiences from a young age. Counselling explores this, and as a professional Integrative Therapist, together, we can work towards healing old wounds. Encouraging life in presence.

Hi my name is Sam. I work with children and young people. My focus when working with children and young people is to find a way to work with them to help with all of their areas of difficulty, from emotional to school and the variety of difficulties they can experience. I find that children and young people feel most comfortable in a familiar surrounding so I always try to work with the child in their own home or school.

I cannot imagine an ideal client, each person is so unique. At the moment most of my clients suffer with anxiety or depression, a lack of confidence in themselves. But the needs are similar, a desire to become autonomous, to find a new direction and a self belief, to feel able and capable and change their outlook. To blend different therapies to suit individuals needs according to their personalities.

Life can be unpredictable and some experiences can cause reactions we don’t fully understand. Counselling can help gain relief and clarity, helping you to find a healthier way forward. Hearing your thoughts and feelings out loud, in the presence of a trained professional can bring about shifts in awareness and perception. Facing your concerns or fears can feel empowering, helping you to feel more in control. My aim is to provide a warm, welcoming safe environment where together we can explore any worries, problems or issues that are causing you any distress, sadness or anxiety.

I use a range of approaches to suit the client. I work well with a range of issues including, relationships, past trauma, personality disorders (BPD), people who are feeling lost, struggling to move on from the past, maybe affected by bullying, toxic relationships, addiction or addictive behaviour. I can address many issues and teach new skills; for example, navigating relationships in a healthier way, regulating emotions, communication skills, improving confidence and self worth. I am a friend of LGBTQ+; I have over 19 years experience and am still as passionate as the day I started. Thank you for checking me out.

Coming to terms with the pressures life brings can be challenging. Counselling may help in gaining a greater insight about who we are and paint a clearer picture, by understanding our circumstances in a confidential environment

I have a psychodynamic approach to therapy, with a particular focus on relationships to gently reveal insights and understanding as to why you may do what you do and find alternative ways to move beyond painful and repetitive experiences. I am committed to ethical, non-discriminatory practice and welcome individuals and couples of all cultures and sexualities. I abide by the principles and ethics of the UKCP.

Hi I’m Aimee, I embrace a warm, open, empathetic and non-judgmental attitude within a trusting therapeutic relationship promoting growth and change. I respect and value each persons individuality and offer a confidential, calm and safe space in which you are empowered to explore your own feelings and emotions. Working together through anything that is troubling you leading to therapeutic change, with a goal to moving towards a more positive future and self-understanding.

Whatever may be troubling you, I can help. Our lives are impacted by our history, culture, social circumstances, friendships and a whole host of other factors. These aspects condition us to respond and interact with people and situations in our lives in very particular ways. My work with you would be to understand your life from your unique perspective and help you get in touch with a more resourced part of yourself, which is beyond the psychological and social conditioning, to help you overcome any difficulties or challenges you may be facing.

Welcome! My name is Shaunagh and I am an experienced Integrative Therapist based in Cheshire. I have worked as a counsellor within primary care settings, employment assistance programmes and private practice. I have also spent 2 years as a volunteer counsellor for local charities. As a result I have had the privilege of gaining experience in a variety and severity of mental health complaints. I have the most experience working with anxiety, relationship issues, grief/loss and LGBTQ+ issues. I also have experience working with depression/low mood, trauma, family conflict, life transitions, self-harm, self-esteem and stress.

I understand that seeking therapy can be an uncertain and challenging process and the continuing changes we face in life can lead us to feel overwhelmed. May aim as a counsellor is to support you through the present pandemic and beyond helping you with any Anxiety, Stress and other issues this could bring. Deciding to seek therapy enables you to have a safe space to explore and work on yourself and the issues you bring to the session. I believe this is the first step towards a new you and with the right interventions helping you to become a stronger version of yourself. I offer both face to face and on line sessions.

My clients choose to see me to help them address specific issues or to explore their thoughts and feelings in particular moments in their lives. Whatever the reason I offer them a confidential space where they can allow themselves to open up as much as they are comfortable with. Often issues are linked to self-esteem, self-worth and the difficulty to fully accept oneself. Clients are often able to become more confident in themselves and in relationships as they learn how to be more compassionate and kind to themselves. Therapy can help clients become happier, more fulfilled and successful in their life journey.

I am a clinical psychologist with substantial experience of working with individuals with personality difficulties (with or without a formal diagnosis of personality disorder), PTSD, and complex trauma. Other areas of clinical expertise include anxiety, burnout, low self-esteem, dissociation and low mood. In therapy I aim to bring compassion to the ways people have learned to cope with adversity and emotional pain. I welcome anyone who is looking to understand themselves and their coping styles better, and/or is seeking ways to break cycles and gain new skills to help them move forwards in their lives.

I am passionate about working with adults and have over 20 years experience working with people in distress. I have experience of working with people with a range of emotional and mental health problems, including complex trauma, anxiety disorders, depression, low self-esteem and psychosis. My aim is to help people take steps along their journey of recovery to a healthier and happier future where people can truly begin living the life they want to live. I work in an integrative way enabling me to work with people to develop a therapy plan which is most likely to help them make positive steps towards their therapy goals.
