You may be finding life difficult at the moment and feeling anxious or sad. Struggling to focus and worrying about falling behind, you're working hard but, feel like you're getting nowhere. Great at sorting out other people's dramas, you're the first one friends and family turn to in a crisis, but you never seem to find the time or the energy to focus on you. You may notice familiar patterns repeating, sabotaging your work, studies and personal relationships and preventing you from reaching your goals. Painful past experiences are encroaching on the present, and you're wondering if therapy might help you get back on track.
Specialising in anxiety, childhood trauma, complex PTSD and ADHD, I offer individual and group therapy in Bolton, Wigan and Online. I work mostly with professionals, creatives and academics of all ages. My special interests include dreamwork, journaling and exploring the connections between creativity and wellbeing. I am BACP registered.
Finding the right therapist can be daunting, which is why I offer a free, initial one hour consultation. This takes place online and is an opportunity for us meet and think about what you want and how we might work together. The best way to contact me is email. I aim to reply within 48 hours, this may take longer during holidays and busy times.
Call or Karen Nolan now for a free 15 minute consultation - 0161 850 4082

I use Transactional Analysis (TA). TA is an individual and group psychotherapy, suitable for brief or long-term work . Our sessions might explore how your actions and reactions in the present, might be influenced by past experiences and relationships. TA offers you a better understanding of yourself and others, greater choice and resources, so that you feel more confident, grounded and assertive.
