Internal Family Systems (IFS) Counselling in Rowlands Gill

Are you feeling low, anxious or helpless? Or maybe you just know something just doesn't feel right? Are past events and traumas still troubling you today? Are you confused by your behaviour and your reactions towards yourself and others? I am a Clinical Psychologist and I work with people just like you! I am experienced in supporting people to understand themselves better and to improve their relationships with others, supporting people to heal from the traumas that they have experienced, supporting those who don't feel like they fit anywhere, and those who question their whole lives because of the experiences that they have had.

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.

If you’re a perfectionist who struggles with anxiety and workplace stress, we’ll be a great fit! I help people get unstuck from difficult emotions that hold them back when times are tough. Together, we’ll work on coping skills to manage and tolerate distress while regulating emotions to help you move forward and improve your quality of life. I strive to help my clients achieve deeper personal and emotional growth and create an authentic life. I’ll empower and encourage you to develop tools to manage the stress and anxiety of your day-to-day life. My purpose is to help you help yourself and live whole-heartedly in the life you want.

Hello, thank you for viewing my profile. I am an EMDR Consultant/ Clinical Supervior and an accredited practitioner with the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP). With over a decade of experience my roles prior have included, counsellor, mental health trainer, suicide interventions trainer, hospital discharge worker and mental health coordinator, working predominately in third-sector settings.

Do you often get overwhelmed with difficult emotions, thoughts or memories and find it hard to cope? Do you ever feel like not fitting in? Do you often beat yourself up or feel like your own worst enemy? I know first hand what it means to deal with these issues and therapy has helped me tremendously with them. I have then trained in evidence-based approaches like CBT to support people like you heal from painful life experiences, learn how to cope with their emotions and thoughts and feel more content within themselves. I am a native Italian psychologist and can also help clients who deal with difficulties related to being an expat.

Hello! My name is Ruby. I am a Psychotherapist offering therapy, coaching and supervision to therapists. I have always been interested in learning about people and what brings them meaning in life. I have been lucky enough to learn from so many individuals life stories. I have worked with those who have struggled with self esteem, body image, a sense of self and what they have to offer. As well as individuals who have desired connection but have found themselves repeating painful relationship dynamics. I am passionate about working with individuals and couples and helping them break from painful cycles of repeating these dynamics.

Do you feel that despite efforts to improve your life, the way you are feeling continues to have a negative impact on your mood, motivation, relationships and how you cope with everyday life? Perhaps you are experiencing a sense of hopelessness that things may never improve as a result of having felt this way for a long time? These could be signs that your mental health needs are enduring and deep-rooted. I am Petra Carlsson-Mitchell, a Clinical Psychologist and through my practice INPSYCHOLOGY, I specialise in psychological treatments for mental health concerns at the moderate to complex end of the mental health continuum.

Many of us can be our own harshest critic...never feeling good enough, never feeling as if we are "enough", not wanted or unloveable...these thoughts understandably have a big impact on our wellbeing and day to day functioning. It's not just you that feels this way - many of us struggle with these thoughts and feelings at times, but particularly if we've experienced adversity or trauma, this may have become the "norm" in the way we think about ourselves. But this can change. And when we start to think about ourselves and relate differently to ourselves, the world feels like a much better place!

I believe that we all have an innate capacity to grow and change, and that sometimes we need to explore our personal stories to get this moving again. As children we make decisions about ourselves based on our environment; sometimes these beliefs and decisions are unkind and can leave us feeling stuck, depressed or not "good enough". Therapy helps to update these beliefs, letting go of what isn't (and may never have been) ours to carry. I have worked extensively with depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse. I currently also practice as a group therapist in an addiction service. I am BACP & UKCP registered.

Have you or a loved one been struggling to cope with anxiety, feeling overwhelmed or low? Maybe social situations are harder to face, or work and studies are harder to manage? Perhaps you've been experiencing unwanted and intrusive thoughts, or feeling driven to repeat certain actions. Doing the things you used to be able to maybe feels just too heavy. If you're a loved one, maybe you've noticed your young person has changed from how they used to be. If any of this sounds familiar, I can help by providing a safe and open space to support you in overcoming these challenges. Please feel free to visit www.chpsychotherapies.com

Hi, I'm Niomi. Recognising that you have a challenge, problem or issue that you wish to address can take courage. We can discuss how I can help you, or your child, to work towards achieving your goals for change. Seeing a therapist can be incredibly beneficial and effective, whether it is for a short period of focused work or a longer course of psychotherapy. I create a safe, comfortable non-judgmental space where we can work together on your needs. This can be face to face, or outdoor therapy through walk and talk, or online.

Hello, welcome to Therapy NorthWest. We support the wellbeing of adults & young people in clinics in Chorley & surrounding areas. We believe that life can be challenging with a number of different pressures & demands. We do not believe that these things make us ‘abnormal’ or ‘ill’, rather that there are times when we require support to work through difficulties, what has happened and how we have responded. Zandra has many years experience working with individuals, couples, families and systems to help foster greater well-being.

I am an experienced Clinical Psychologist. I offer assessment and therapy to adults aged 18 and over. I have additional training and qualifications in EMDR, DBT and CFT. I also use an Internal Family System (IFS approach). I have a particular interest and experiences in PTSD and complex trauma but can offer support for a very wide range of difficulties and distress. Please visit my website www.reflecttherapies.com to see more about my approach. I can offer in person and online sessions.

I am an experienced HCPC registered Clinical Psychologist. I offer a welcoming and collaborative space to explore your therapeutic goals. My specialism is in Cognitive Analytic Therapy and EMDR. I help clients experiencing difficulties in their relationships, coping with emotions, low mood and low self-worth. I also work with trauma (EMDR trained and IFS-informed). My clients often want to understand their past experiences, how these have impacted how they relate to themselves and others, and explore making changes to feel more empowered, safe, and able to cope with life's stressors.

I specialize in working with PTSD, complex PTSD and anxiety, and also individuals who had a difficult childhood or coming from dysfunctional families, now struggling with anxiety, relationship difficulties and eating problems. If you find yourself here, it's likely because life has been difficult. Perhaps you struggle to see a path toward improvement. You deserve to experience improvement and relief. Whether you've faced adversity since childhood or have been grappling with mental health issues for some time, whether you're new to therapy or seeking a more sustainable solution, I'm here to support you on your journey toward recovery

Hi I'm Angela. Coming to counselling can feel like such a big step. There may be an obvious reason as to why you're feeling low, such as bereavement or a traumatic event. Equally you could be feeling sad and you don't really understand why. Perhaps you're struggling with anxiety or depression, or you're having panic attacks? Many people are struggling with their mental health for the first time due to COVID 19. Whatever you're going through I'd like to help you feel better. I'm trained in both Person Centred Counselling and Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS). You can choose to work with either model or a combination of the two.

I specialise in supporting clients who have experienced trauma, both single incident traumas and attachment or developmental trauma, alongside other difficulties such as (but not limited to) bereavement, thoughts of ending your life, self-harming thoughts, depression, other mental health and physical diagnoses, anxiety and depression. Therapy is a vital part of emotional wellbeing, both at times of difficulty, and also as part of maintaining positive emotional health.
