Counselling in GU24

We all experience difficult times in our lives, whether it be through trauma, loss, being diagnosed with a chronic/terminal illness, or life’s natural cycle of events. Maybe you’re not sure what’s causing you to feel like you’re struggling, sometimes we don’t know why we feel sad, angry, anxious or depressed together we can unravel things and look at how we can increase your resilience. Working in an integrative way I use different theoretical approaches to empower you to make to make the best decisions for yourself. I offer a safe therapeutic space where you can talk things over and to move forward and feel more fulfilled.

Do you feel like you’re treading water like you might be pulled under? Are you struggling to cope with overwhelming feelings of uncertainty, or loss? Maybe you’re having relationship difficulties, or you are feeling isolated and aren’t sure which way to turn. Counselling can feel like a lifeline to help you better understand the changes happening in your life. Helping you to gain clearer insight, feel calmer and better able to cope with the stresses, difficulties and decisions you are faced with.

Hello, my name is Richard and I am a BABCP accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapist (CBT) with considerable experience working with depression, anxiety difficulties, life transitions and adjustments, stress and low self-worth.

Are you finding it difficult to cope right now? It could be that your lifestyle is stressful, with work and/or family pressures. You may have suffered trauma or loss in your life that you are struggling to work through. Finding a counsellor isn't difficult, but finding the right counsellor and asking for help isn't always so easy. Trust your instinct and choose someone whose words you connect with. If you are struggling with stress (inc Work Stress), anxiety (inc. social anxiety), self esteem, domestic abuse (emotional, physical and sexual) or grief, call me to book a free 30 min consultation to see if I can help.

There are many reasons that can bring us into therapy whether it might be current difficulties, long term struggles, illness or just a hope for change. I know how valuable it is to have a safe and confidential space where you can explore how you really feel and think about things. In this space it can help you to uncover unhealthy patterns and destructive behaviours with a view to bring about a change.

Hello. Are you feeling unsettled, unhappy, not as bubbly as you once were? Do you need help working through relationship difficulties? Have you experienced trauma that you want to move past? Do you struggle to make your own decisions or assert yourself with the people around you? Is life feeling generally overwhelming and you can't see the woods for the trees? You might be feeling anxious or stressed with what life is throwing at you at the moment. These are all issues that I am working through with current clients, as well as many other things.

I am an Integrative Counsellor and Psychotherapist practising in Guildford, Haslemere, Putney, West London and Private Practice. I offer short or long term therapy and work with adults and the elderly on a one-to-one basis. I provide a safe, confidential, and non-judgemental space, in professional settings and calm surroundings, where you can find solace and privacy. I hold up-to-date Enhanced Disclosure (DBS) for working with the very vulnerable and continue to develop my skills while I undertake a further MSc in Neuroscience.

I have worked with clients through Relate since 1995, first of all only with couples and adult individuals and then since 2013 with Young People aged 10 to 18 through a contract with CAHMS. The couple work has included working with divorce and separation, affairs, extended family issues, parenting, illness, work pressures, communication issues and sexual problems. Clients might start with a clear agenda or we might spend some time establishing the focus of the therapy as it develops. Amongst other things, the work through CAMHS has covered anxiety, suicidal ideation, family issues, sexuality and transgender issues.

Life can be a huge challenge sometimes leaving you feeling overwhelmed, confused, isolated and struggling to cope. It may seem like no-one will understand and the last thing you feel like doing is talking to a stranger, but finding the courage to take that first step in seeking professional, confidential and genuine support can make a real difference to what is happening for you right now, and your quality of life in the future.

I provide long term open ended Psychotherapy, Psycho-Spiritual Therapy and short term experiential therapy and coaching for individuals, couples and organisations. In addition to a BA (Hons) in Integrative Psychotherapy I hold a Masters in Theology and have studied Systemic and Family Constellations and Sacred Attention Therapy over many years.

It can be difficult to share feelings of anxiety, burnout, low moods, imposter syndrome or uncertainty with colleagues, family or friends. Often you can be met with unwanted advice or loaded opinion. You may have people who are relying on you to be strong and lead. My practice is where you can get these worries out without judgement. I can help safely unravel your complex thoughts, and find clarity in what might be going on for you, to successfully move forward. Whether it’s leadership, work-life balance, people problems or a rough upbringing that just keeps biting – it doesn’t matter where you start. I am on your team.

A cuppa and chat with friends can often provide exactly what we need when facing difficulties in life… But what if friends’ well-intended advice just isn’t working this time? Maybe it's time for you to see if counselling can help. Hello, my name is Donna and I’m a qualified, experienced Counsellor; I offer you a compassionate, common-sense and theoretically based approach to help you explore what is troubling you. I provide short and long-term therapy, tailored to your needs. I look forward to working with you.

I offer a safe and confidential space and a therapeutic relationship to explore what's pushing you down or holding you back in life. I want to help you move forward from difficult experiences, and to gain more freedom, ease, and creativity in your life. As a BACP accredited eclectic therapist (mixed approaches) with a background in mental health and various psychological therapies, I hold a balance between different theories and therapeutic approaches in line with your specific needs. I have worked with lots of British clients including British South Asians / Pakistani's and India's because I share the same cultural background.

I am a warm and empathic person who strives to support my clients through difficult times and offer my counselling service to both men and women. I offer a safe and confidential space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings and make sense of the life experiences that are troubling you. I have vast experience of working with addiction, loss, depression, anxiety, relationship issues and work related issues.

Counselling helps you explore both your difficulties and strengths, whether as an individual or as a couple. You might be aware of particular issues which you want to look at, such as relationships or anger, anxiety and sadness or just the sense that things could do to be better. Talking matters, but so do practical tools and ideas to manage things better. Sessions are flexible and are about you having the space to talk and be understood. You have a particular and special way of looking at the world that is to be valued and, whatever you choose to do differently, needs to make sense and fit for you.

I specialise in mental health challenges and men's related issues such as barriers to intimacy, ED, low sex drive, pornography addiction, and relationship or social challenges. In psychotherapy sessions I provide a confidential setting that encourages you to reflect on your journey. We will explore the feelings, emotions and impact significant events have had on the way you experience day-to-day life. We will work through your thought process moving towards the version of you that you've always wanted to be. Who is that person? Are they confident in themselves? And, do they allow themselves to smile, laugh and be happy?

EMDR Therapy can be helpful for PTSD and Trauma, whether a one off incident or chronic trauma such as childhood abuse or neglect and many other mental health presentations, such as body dysmorphia, grief, self-esteem, chronic pain, anxiety, sexual assault, childhood neglect, domestic abuse and more. Many of these presentations can leave you feeling isolated, frustrated and helpless, by processing these via bilateral stimulation to a resolution, life can become more manageable and less triggering, allowing you to achieve your goals.
