Female Counselling in Dunswell, ENG

Are you struggling with some stressors and worried that you’ve developed some depressive, anxiety or post-traumatic stress symptoms? Are you feeling bothered by some traumatic experience and wanted something to be changed? I have been specialized in the treatment of anxiety, trauma and relationship problems for many years and work as a clinical psychologist for more than 20 years. I've got experience working in the community setting in Hong Kong and the NHS. Most of my clients have provided positive feedback for my psychological services.

I'm Caroline Hudson, a BACP accredited counsellor with over 20 years experience in a range of settings. I run a therapy centre in Beverley which offers individual counselling/psychotherapy, couples counselling and family therapy with experienced counsellors and psychotherapists.

We live in a society that is increasingly busy, at times stressful and anxiety inducing. Whilst we are no longer being chased by a sabre tooth tiger, our brains often think that we are and so behave as such. One of the reasons I became a therapist and one of my greatest passions is working with clients managing anxiety and low mood symptoms. In addition, finding ways to take care of yourself, increase self-esteem and personal resilience enabling you to live your best life and the best version of you. I am able to offer face to face therapy, outdoor therapy and also via Zoom or telephone.

Hello my name is Mary, I am an Psychotherapeutic Counsellor. One of the hardest things is to admit you need help and then to ask for it, but we all need help at some point in our lives. I feel privileged to be able to work with both adults and teens. I pride myself in providing a supportive, friendly, non-judgemental, safe and confidential space for my clients. I will be by your side on your therapy journey which may feel uncomfortable at times but I also believe there is a place in the therapy room for smiles. My friendly private practice is run with Clinical Supervision, fully insured and accredited by the NCPS.

Life can leave us feeling "wounded". At times life can feel confusing, difficult, painful, miserable, and so much more. In those moments we need to talk because holding it all in can be even more agonising. It may be that you are unsure of what it is you would like to explore, or you are aware that something does not feel right, or you don't know who you are anymore. Talking about the things that are affecting your life can transform YOU, because talking aims to help you deal with and overcome things that are causing you emotional pain or making you feel uncomfortable. Talking can offer you a safe space to explore yourself.

The decision to have counselling is a really brave one, and it might be difficult to know if it’s the right time for you. You can have counselling for all sorts of reasons, and there’s no such thing as a right or wrong one. You might be feeling overwhelmed or anxious; perhaps you’ve experienced a bereavement or a relationship breakdown, or you might not know what the reason is, and that is okay. Sometimes therapy is difficult, and it can bring up things that are hard to face, but you don’t have to do so alone.

Difficulties in life catch us up at some stage, so why not make time just for you, working at your pace, exploring what is making life difficult just now. I support clients with difficult relationships, life events, Abuse of any form past/present, bereavements, illness, & all losses. The concerns of becoming a new mum, or older children leaving home & you with mixed feelings. I have extensive knowledge of Domestic/Emotional/Physical Abuse, Loss from illness, Change or Bereavement, Divorce or Post-natal depression, Bullying, work related stress. I am available to consider anything you might need, just reach out, I'm listening...

Hi my name is Liz and I have been working as a Cognitive Behavioural Therapist for over 15 years. I am passionate about offering my knowledge and skills in CBT to allow people to reach their full potential. I work with people who may be struggling with stress, anxiety, low mood, low self esteem, OCD, PTSD, Health Anxiety, Social Anxiety or phobias. CBT is a practical talking therapy that teaches you coping skills for dealing with different problems. It focuses on how your thoughts, beliefs and attitudes affect your feelings and actions. If this sounds like something that would benefit you, I would love to hear from you.

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.

I am passionate about trauma-informed care and utilise a whole-person approach. Trauma can often underpin common mental health difficulties, and I can work with you to process the source of your difficulties and/or focus on your current symptoms. You may wish to focus on your current experiences of depression, anxiety, etc., or wish to address the underlying difficulties that have led to these. I also have a keen interest in complex trauma, dissociation, childhood emotional neglect, medically unexplained symptoms, functional neurological disorder, chronic pain, chronic fatigue and other physical difficulties.

I am people person, who has a passion for helping others improve their current situation to have a more fulfilled and meaningful life. I believe counselling needs to be a down to earth experience, I believe in an equal relationship between client and counsellor. I will not judge, place my opinions or beliefs on you, but walk beside you in your journey in therapy. I offer a professional service and am flexible in my way of working, adapting the work to meet your needs.

If you have become aware that you struggle with relationships, friendships, feel stuck, lost your sparkle, don’t feel seen or heard then I can be the person to help you unpick all of this and help you to understand your feelings and give you the tools to deal with these things.

Acknowledging that you need to talk to someone else other than a family member or a friend is the first step, which can be very challenging. I understand it takes courage to share your vulnerable parts with someone you don’t know but I also believe that it can be very powerful, and a life changing experience. In my work I provide a space, where you can discover things about yourself you perhaps haven’t been aware of before. I am passionate about connecting with an inner child we sometimes dismiss or forget about due to demands, and responsibilities that life brings.

Hello, I’m Debbie, a qualified Transactional Analysis (TA) Psychotherapeutic Counsellor and trainee Integrative Psychotherapist. I prefer to work with clients face to face but I do work online too. Having worked in mental health services for almost 20 years, I developed significant experience and a genuine passion in helping people with mental health difficulties. In particular, adults and young people struggling with eating disorders or eating difficulties, and obsessive-compulsive behaviours. I am, however, open to working with any difficulty in life you may be facing. I mainly work with adults but will work with young people 16+.

We all feel challenged and overwhelmed at times. Whatever the greatest challenge is in your life right now, I aim to give you simple, straightforward strategies that could help you to live a happier life starting straight away. The thought of talking to a stranger might be daunting for some people, and that's perfectly normal. I can promise you a safe, non-judgemental and totally confidential environment where your thoughts and concerns are the most important thing and where you can talk openly about whatever is bothering you. You will be treated with the upmost respect - your happiness and wellbeing is important to me.

Hello and welcome! My name is Klaudia. Finding the right therapist is so important. I know from my own therapeutic journey what a massive difference to the quality of life and mental health can a suitable therapist make. If you think you might be struggling with anxiety & depression, trauma coupled with PTSD, with low self-esteem or gender identity, we can have an up to 30-minute free chat over the phone or online. Maybe I'm the therapist you are looking for. :) I usually take clients on the back-to-the-past journey and help them unearth events, patterns and scripts that are holding them back and causing them emotional pain.

I am a Consultant Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years of experience working with children, young people and adults with ASD and ADHD, as well as 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. It's important to me that during our work together you feel listened to, understood, supported and encouraged.

If you want to change your situation on the outside, it’s good to start by looking at what you can change on the inside. Perhaps you have serious difficulties finding peace and joy in your life. Your sense of well-being, physically and mentally, may be reduced or destroyed. You might find yourself sliding into unhealthy or even self-destructive behaviours. Your persistent self-doubt leads to anxiety and depression, causing relationship problems and anger issues. You have a feeling that you do not quite know who you are.  Or perhaps you just know “something is not quite right in my life” but you can’t pinpoint what it is.
