Online Counselling for England

I am a fully qualified integrative therapist, experienced in working with couples and individuals of all ages, and from all walks of life. I'm not your everyday counsellor, I truly believe that we all have it within us to be our best selves, happy and content, but that comes from understanding ourselves better. I often see clients in the middle of a crisis who need more immediate help, and I also work with people who are otherwise happy but want help moving forwards in their life. I see couples who may have got into bad habits, and may want help building an environment which will enable the relationship to flourish once again.

I love working with people, getting to know you and hearing your story. I believe that we are all unique. One of the things I love most about my work is the privilege of seeing someone begin to thrive and to enjoy their life again. I love helping to find some inner calm, clarity of thought and to be practicing self compassion as part of their everyday lives. I work in a bespoke way, tailor making my approach to each person. However, that said, everyone's needs compassion and so a compassion focused therapy approach runs through all of my work. I am most definitely a human first and a psychologist second.

We have availability in our expert team now for child/family and adult therapy. We recognise that reaching out for help can be a big step. I run Cura Psychology, Lichfield's most established independent clinical psychology, therapy and counselling practice. We are a bespoke team of highly skilled and experienced mental health professionals offering CBT, ACT, trauma treatments, DDP, theraplay, music therapy/art therapy and creative therapies and parenting advice as well as assessments for ADHD and Autism; delivered within a warm and collaborative therapeutic relationship in our beautiful suite. We would love to hear from you!

People who sincerely want change and are willing to look within will find a committed cheerleader in me. Identifying unconscious patterns is often uncomfortable work. Learning to have grace and self-compassion in those tight spots ought to be taught in schools. Until then, there's person centred therapy.

As a Professor of psychology with academic expertise on men, masculinities, sex and relationships, I provide bespoke therapy for men’s needs. Men prefer a less emotional, no-nonsense approach to counselling. My approach is thus problem-centered, solution-focused, with practical application and flexible session lengths. My expertise is to help men with relationship problems, particularly concerning related issues of sex, sexuality, erectile problems, cheating, sexually opening up relationships and multiple issues related to men, adolescents, and masculinities.

As an integrative clinical psychotherapist, I offer a personalised approach to support individuals in their journey toward healing and self-discovery. By integrating various therapeutic modalities, I tailor my interventions to meet the unique needs of each client. Clients who come to me are often grappling with complex life issues, including unresolved emotions, past traumas, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and a sense of disconnection. They seek a safe space to explore their innermost thoughts and feelings without judgment, aiming to gain deeper self-understanding and clarity about their place in the world.

Do you struggle with anxiety, imposter syndrome or low mood? Comparing yourself negatively to others, fearing rejection if you are your authentic self, or make a mistake. You may have always felt this way, stemming from painful experiences in your past. Or has something happened more recently that has changed your sense of self? Maybe you are starting to identify as ADHD, AuDHD or ASC, and you're trying to make sense of your life story from this new perspective. Therapy is a safe and supportive space to explore your difficulties at your pace, develop new strategies, regain confidence whilst reconnecting with what you value and enjoy

People come to see me for many reasons: They may find themselves feeling confused or overwhelmed and longing to find clarity about a particular issue. They may have achieved a great deal in their lives but are still feeling that something vital is missing. They may have lost their passion and purpose and yearn to find it again. They may want to discover how to tap into their deepest wisdom so that they can find the best way forward in their lives. Some long to find a way of liberating their creativity. Yet others want to deepen or discover their spiritual lives. Each person is unique and I tailor the work to suit each one.

Are you stuck in old stories or still impacted by challenges from your past? Maybe you are finding you are not living your life to the fullest or are going through a significant life event? I am passionate about supporting and empowering people to move through areas of restriction or suffering in their lives. I will witness and understand you as an individual, supporting you to embrace more of your full potential. The foundation is a safe, compassionate, honest and non-judgemental space and relationship, combined with effective practices.

My focus is to truly understand your problem and we work together as a team to end your suffering. To do that I use my 30 years of professional experience to help you get peace of mind and heart. I am a qualified Psychotherapist and Counsellor registered with the UKCP, with 30 years of experience which has included counselling and training therapists at Guys to Hospital, London. I am also a trained Hypnotherapist - specialising in confidence, self esteem, setting goals for your future and dealing with any kind of fear or failure.

The modern pressures of life can take their toll on us – increasing responsibilities and being connected 24/7 can leave us feeling burnt out, anxious, and overwhelmed. Even when we do manage to disconnect, we find it difficult to disconnect from our racing thoughts. If you’re new to therapy it can be daunting, however taking this brave step can be rewarding. It can give you the space to explore what is really going on, process difficult emotions, develop healthy coping strategies and restore your mental well-being - so that you aren’t just surviving, but thriving in the world.

Does something not feel quite right? Troubles in relationships? Struggling with stresses at work/home? Maybe you're noticing that the way you deal with stresses is having an impact on your life and those closest to you. Maybe you feel that the issues you are facing currently are rooted in something that carries more depth and exploring this is scary on your own. I totally understand and this is where I can help with this. If you're still reading, thank you, and you might be interested in hearing that I can offer the first 3 sessions free of charge to see if it's right for you, and then continue on a paying basis afterwards.

Anxiety around intimacy, relationships, or sexual concerns is incredibly common, and the overarching impact that these issues can have on your health and happiness is often underestimated and undervalued. Forming meaningful and honest connections with people including yourself, and feeling empowered to truly accept and project how you feel - good and bad - is challenging with sex and relationships being no exception. Shedding light on the unconscious and bringing new perspectives to your world can be the seed from which healing and personal development grow.

Do you feel burnt out? Is your work-life balance in need of a reset? Are you feeling overwhelmed with stress, trapped by the pressure and all alone with it? Do you wish you could make different choices, ask for what you need, and reclaim your life's direction? I'm Chantal, an integrative psychotherapist and I'm here to work with you through this. Together we can explore what's going on for you, and what you need to restore health and regain balance in your life. I can support you to establish the Self-care and boundaries that allow you to step out of chronic stress and step into living a fulfilling life of wellness.

We are in particularly difficult and challenging times for many people. Many people are currently experiencing heightened anxiety, stress, low mood, low self esteem and experiencing relationship difficulties.

My aim is to provide a high-quality, specialist service to men struggling with problem sexual behaviours, including problematic sex use, pornography consumption, drug-linked sexual behaviours (chemsex or party-drugs), moral or ethical conflicts over the types of sex (fantasy, BDSM or visiting sex workers), the breaking of relationship boundaries (affairs or infidelity) or resulting legal and financial problems. I am a professionally qualified, registered and accredited sex therapist, dedicated to helping you achieve your goals and improve your sexual health, self-identity & well-being.

Do you feel like something needs to change but you don’t know how? Does that change seem impossible? Whether you feel overwhelmed, stuck, angry, alone, anxious or unaware of what is happening to you, I can help you to make that change. To become more like the “old” you again, or maybe to find a “better" you, or even the "real” you. I help people with anxiety feel more relaxed, people pleasers find confidence and assertiveness, people affected by the past to overcome the legacy of their experiences, those who feel overwhelmed to find a calm space and the bereaved to grieve.
