French Counselling in Rowlands Gill

Hello my name is Patrice Buée. I can support you with a range of issues to help work through grief and loss including symptoms of depression, low mood and anxiety. Family issues, relationship challenges, work related issues and long term health problems are explored using a holistic approach to health and wellbeing. I have experience in providing therapy to both adults and young people of secondary school age (10 years old and upwards).

Hi there! I'm Marina, a psychotherapist with a Master in Clinical Psychology in a jungian approach and a PhD Course in Human Sexuality. I'm from Brazil and currently living in Newcastle. I'm an open-minded therapist who offers an empathic and non- judgmental environment. I work with people online in English or Portuguese.

Je pratique la psychothérapie depuis plus de 12 ans en France et au Royaume Uni. Je propose une approche thérapeutique qui se repose essentiellement sur le processus de la relation entre le client et le thérapeute. J’offre une écoute qui favorise un climat d’ouverture, de non-jugement et de compréhension. Cela vous aidera à donner un sens à ce que vous traversez et à dépasser vos difficultés pour réaliser votre potentiel. Je travaille de façon collaborative, avec compassion et humour. Je suis née au Royaume Uni et j’ai vécu en France pendant plus de 35 ans avant de retourner dans mon pays d’origine.

I work from the heart to bring about spiritual development with psychological healing. I am focused on helping my clients achieve positive, tangible, and permanent changes. With 20 years’ experience in the helping profession, I have helped people improve their life outlook on issues related to and including mental health and wellbeing, childhood trauma, problematic drug and alcohol use, relationships, love and loss as well as professional development.

After a decade in the UK, including Manchester, Glasgow, and Edinburgh, I now call Montpellier home. My diverse living experiences help me offer tailored support to expatriates and those navigating different cultures. As a therapist, I prioritize inclusivity, especially for the LGBTQI+ community. Fluent in French and English, I provide in-person (in Montpellier) and online therapy. As a trained Yin Yoga and Restorative Yoga teacher, I take a holistic approach, supporting individuals with issues like anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship challenges. I welcome supervisees and art therapy students.

I work with teenagers, adults, couples and families. My aim is to provide practical, emotional and psychological support that is right for each person, combining the most effective therapeutic approaches with the latest evidence in neuroscience. Sessions give you space to explore what's important to you and may be about dealing with anxiety, depression, addiction, self harm, eating difficulties or trauma - recent or longstanding. It may be relationship issues as part of a couple or family; or exploring your identity, gender or neurodiversity. As well as 1:1 therapy, online support groups for teenagers and parents are also available.

As a Supervisor & Psychotherapist, over 35 years of my adult life have been dedicated to working with others in their quest for well-being. You may be dealing with a recent, disturbing event leading to anxiety, depression & stress & could do with someone to help you move on? Or perhaps you have a difficult choice to make & need help to see clearly? Or perhaps you just feel unhappy & don't really know how this came about? A difficulty in a relationship or within the family? Whatever the cause, we can work together to unearth whatever is getting you down so that you can move on.

Do you find yourself struggling with self-doubt or feeling adrift amidst the complexity of your emotions? Is stress becoming too much to bear, or have you recently endured a significant loss? Engaging in meaningful dialogue with a professional can prove immensely beneficial. Through this process, you not only gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of yourself but also find clarity by expressing your emotions. Taking the time to be truly heard can leave you feeling whole, energised, valued, and connected. This transformative impact underscores the value of counselling in nurturing your overall well-being.

Welcome to my page. I look forward to helping you establish your goal in therapy and working on how we can reach this together. I will then support you in your journey towards or achieving or maintaining improved mental health and emotional wellbeing.

Are you feeling lost, overwhelmed, tired, stressed, anxious, alone, burnt out, depressed? Want a happier, peaceful and more fulfilled life, but don't know where to start?

I’m Dr Ibrahim Ndabavunye and I am a Clinical Psychologist registered with the Health and Care Professional Council. My experience includes working with individuals with a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, trauma/complex trauma, grief and loss, anger management, perfectionism, coping with life changes, and others. I will help you from a range of approaches including, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Advanced Trauma therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Psycho-dynamic Therapy. I look not only at what is going on the mind, but also I pay attention to the body.

Sometimes life is difficult and you want something different, a change for yourself. Therapy is a space where we can share our stories, our histories that influence the person we are, the suffering we may experience. Through this process, we can develop new insights into what has shaped us as people. I offer a safe, empathic and confidential space where you can explore, without judgement, your story and any personal difficulties you are experiencing. I will work with you, in your rhythm, to help you deepen your awareness of your experiences, thoughts, and embodied feelings.

Hello, I'm Zoe - it's a pleasure to meet you. I am an experienced LGBTQ+ and University counsellor currently offering online counselling and psychotherapy. I provide a warm, safe and nurturing space to support you on your therapeutic journey. As a therapist, I am committed to ensure that your therapy sessions are co-constructed to meet your individual therapeutic needs. Benefitting from shared-decision making, a focus on therapeutic direction as well as empathy, support, compassion and attention, you can expect a uniquely inclusive and collaborative therapeutic experience.

Psychoanalysis or psychoanalytic psychotherapy is an open-ended conversation with no agenda and no time limit (i.e. number of sessions). The practice (Greek: Praxis) of psychoanalysis attends to the person who comes for analysis, to listen and witness their concerns, and to facilitate, if possible some kind of loosening of the strictures than bind and contort experience. I work with people with different needs under the rubric of mental distress.

Having the right fit (“therapeutic alliance”) with your psychologist is viewed as the most crucial factor in the healing process. I would encourage you to choose a practitioner with a broad life experience as well as a clinical training in a range of evidence-based psychological therapies. A former lawyer, I practised human rights & social justice law for years in the courts in the UK. This led to my interest in psychology & trauma & therapies to overcome psychological difficulties. I’ve lived in Canada, France, Italy & Scotland and have travelled all over the world, so I hope to have a background which may help you.

Life can be a roller-coaster and as such the emotions that accompany our various life experiences can be at times powerful, overwhelming and difficult to manage daily. As a result, you might be feeling depressed, lonely, sad, angry, anxious, stuck, unsettled, like you’ve lost your way…. Whatever is troubling you, I am here to listen. Although you might have a friend or family member to talk to about what is concerning you, their own feelings and judgements, can stop you from approaching them as you don’t feel fully heard or understood- you don’t feel safe.

People are often unsure if counselling is for them. My opinion is if something is causing you worry, anxiety or you are not sure what to do, or have depressing, counselling can help. By talking through your issues you gain new perspectives. Some people find coming for their first counselling session really difficult, because they don't know what to expect. The first session is about you meeting the counsellor and discussing what is troubling you. First sessions are longer than normal at Colette Counselling, this give us plenty of time to talk about the therapy process and your issues and how therapy can be of help to you.

As a versatile therapist, I enjoy using a range of methods including person-centred, psychodynamic, CBT, trauma-focused, somatic, and more. This allows me to tailor my approach to better meet your needs as an individual or a couple. Over the years, I have helped clients with various presenting issues, including processing trauma, managing anxiety, or simply understanding themselves better. I strive to create a warm and inclusive space where people of all genders, races, ages, abilities, and backgrounds can feel comfortable bringing their true selves without shame or judgment.
