Counselling in GU31

Hello, I am Dr. Lucy Furlong and I’m a Charted Clinical Psychologist offering a safe, non-judgemental space where you can talk in confidence online or at my clinic in Petersfield. My clinic is currently held on Wednesdays and Thursdays. I completed my doctorate in Clinical Psychology in 2006. My training included working with adults and children with a wide range of difficulties including, anxiety disorders, depression, post traumatic stress disorder, psychosis, obsessive compulsive disorder and childhood difficulties.

I am a Doctor of Clinical Psychology with over 10 years experience in the NHS. I work with people struggling with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, emotional dysregulation and interpersonal difficulties. I specialise in working with people who have attachment or relational trauma, sometimes subtle in nature or more overtly abusive. I help people to understand, cope with and heal from their difficulties, allowing them to live more enjoyable and fulfilling lives.

Are you looking for someone to listen, to share the difficulties you are experiencing at the moment? Do you feel anxious, lonely, depressed, overwhelmed by emotions? Perhaps you can't put your finger on exactly what you feel. Talking to a counsellor and being listened to can help. I am a qualified counsellor and a registered member of BACP, working in central Petersfield with adults of all ages. I can provide general support or we can focus on specific issues such as anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, bereavement, loss, or relationship issues.

I run a successful private practice in Petersfield in Hampshire. I work relationally and empathically with people from all walks of life, young people, mid-life, the elderly and couples. Clients come in with lots of different issues that can be very troubling. Depression can leave clients barely functioning, anxiety can leave a client cripplingly isolated. Couples are left in despair when their relationships break down. Young people are feeling desperate in a world that demands so much of them. The elderly can be full of fear at what tomorrow might have in store for them.

I offer a safe, welcoming space to help you explore how you would like to live your life. I work with adults living with a range of difficulties including anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, eating disorders, brain injury, interpersonal and relational difficulties, as well as psychosis. I am also passionate about supporting people through challenging life transitions for example becoming a new parent or starting retirement. I am an integrative clinical psychologist, with my practice drawing on a range of the latest evidence-based therapeutic approaches allowing therapy to be personalised and tailored to your individual needs.

We work with people with a range of difficulties including anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, low self esteem, chronic health difficulties, eating disorders, emotional instability and self destructive coping patterns. In your initial consultation we will explore what brings you to therapy and make a plan for how we will work together. We offer evidenced based structured therapy to help you move forwards in your life. Most of is have doctorates in Clinical or Counselling Psychology and we have all undertaken many years of training and have a wealth of experience working in the NHS and the private sector.

Feeling stuck, stressed or unhappy? Troubled by life challenges? Is your relationship facing difficulties? Even the strongest among us can feel lost or overwhelmed at times. As a Psychologist, I offer expert therapy services tailored to your specific needs helping you gain insight into current challenges and manage whatever life throws at you. I am a Chartered Psychologist HCPC, BPS and BACP registered with more 10 years of experience in the NHS, third sector and private practice.

Welcome. Life can be tough. Sometimes we simply need to talk with someone who can listen without judgement; who does not 'give advice' but holds the space for personal reflection, growth and development. As a registered and accredited member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP), I am an independent, experienced and professional counsellor / psychotherapist, an approved Adoption counsellor and qualified in EMDR therapy. I work with young people and adults, including couples and families, across such issues as anxiety, bereavement, depression, relationships and trauma.

We all experience problems in our lives and sometimes they can feel too big to carry alone. Juggling work, home, family, friends, health and personal aspirations can be difficult at the best of times. You may be feeling lost, anxious or overwhelmed and are looking for someone to understand and ease the load. Whatever concerns you; talking things through with someone and expressing yourself can help you to understand your feelings and thoughts. This promotes healing and helps you to move forward. Making life's challenges more manageable and freeing up your energy to focus on what you want.

There may be occasions in our lives when we struggle to make sense of what is happening to us and the world we experience. I provide an opportunity to explore your thoughts, feelings and experiences within a relationship that is free of the fears we may hold about disclosing to people we know. I offer a relationship of trust, honesty and openness that allows you to explore your story, thoughts, hopes and fears, in a safe, supportive, confidential place, free of external influences and judgement, providing an opportunity for personal insight and change.

Walk-Talk Therapy: Do you want to re-connect with nature? To feel more grounded, mindful & to just slow down? We will walk in the beautiful woods and fields near my counselling room in the South Downs. Walking & being in nature releases endorphins which in turn reduces depression and anxiety. Life is often so busy that nature becomes removed - this will give you time to reconnect. For some people face to face traditional counselling is too anxiety provoking, so walking in parallel can feel more comfortable. Adults & Young people 16yrs+. Indoor counselling £60 x 1hr session, Walk-Talk £78 x 1.5hrs, £104 x 2hrs.

I have become aware after 25 years, that with the right approach it is possible to bring healing, freedom and peace of mind to anyone -  whatever the problem. The uniqueness of each and every one of us should always be reflected in the chosen therapy. That's why, here at Solutions, I draw on a wide range of therapies to enable me to tailor my approach to your individual needs. My desire is to enable you to find greater freedom in your life, and an understanding of who you are and the best you can be.

My name is Ingrid Coombs. I am I C Counselling specialising in the field of trauma which, I believe is an event or events combined with all the feelings and emotions associated with it, which now negatively impact your life. Trauma affects people in many different ways. Only you will know how your experience is affecting you and whether or not you are struggling to cope as a result. I also work in the field of addiction, helping those already in recovery examine their journey which took them there. This can encompass past behaviours, relationships, adverse childhood experiences, leading to depression and anxiety and low self worth.

Feeling half a step behind most other people, feeling as if you cannot express how you feel to close friends and family because you do not want to worry them with your problems. This is where I may be able to help you. Most people feel discomfort or out of there comfort zone at times. Depression, anxiety, stress, dependencies, and many other things can drive this sense of aloneness even when in a group of other people. A sense that no one will understand me creeps in, at this point reaching out in the hope of finding support and connection is where I may be able to help.

Sometimes it's hard to know where to start. We know something doesn't feel right. These feelings can consume and overwhelm us and stop us from moving forward. Whatever you are feeling, having a safe and confidential space to explore, within a non-judgemental relationship, can be the start to living a better life and looking at the future in a different way. You are unique and what you bring to therapy will be individual to you.

Hello, and welcome to my page. I live in the South Downs national park, having left London ten years ago. Before that I studied music in New York. I offer psychotherapy on-line and I'm very passionate about seeing people recover their lives and have new beginnings. Life is too short to waste, and through counselling you can begin to feel whole again. I have worked in the NHS, universities, and have been in private practice for over 10 years. I am also the director of a successful mindfulness organization working with diversity. If you would like to know more about me, please see www.absentfather.org.

Welcome. You may be here because of a period of crisis or for support to manage a longer term issue. Finding a balance between work, relationships and family can be difficult especially in these challenging times. Through our work together I can help you gain an increased sense of well-being, control and resilience. There are many reasons why we reach out for help in times of confusion and pain and you do not have to be alone.

I believe I know what matters in building a safe and trusting environment to enable personal change and growth. I have chosen to base my counselling ethos on a Humanistic modality which includes the belief each of us has the ability, drive and autonomy within ourselves to resolve emotional issues, conflicts and life changing events. I also recognise we all need a bit of help and support in times of distress.

Many people come to therapy needing support but not being sure how therapy can help. Life may have become difficult to cope with or feel unhappily limited. You may be seeking to understand why things are the way they are; you may be uncertain about what changes are needed, or your capacity to make them; perhaps you just need to talk to someone not directly involved in your situation. My approach is designed to meet all of these concerns, beginning with supportive listening, facilitating insight into your situation, and ultimately supporting you to grow and nurture your inner resources to meet the challenges you face.

Counselling can be really helpful when you just need someone to talk to and it can offer so much more. When you are feeling like something is just not right or life seems so challenging, talking to a Counsellor can make the difference. Many people just want to feel better and get a sense of relief from the turmoil of life. It may be that a life event has really impacted on you, such as a bereavement, trauma or loss of a job. You may feel like the world just does not understand you or perhaps you are struggling to come to terms with your sexuality. There are many many different reasons why people choose counselling. We're all unique.
