Counselling in L1
I have a deep appreciation and passion for working with adults and children who have experienced trauma. I have a diverse range of skills and experience, such as cross-cultural psychology, immigration, self-esteem and neurodiversity, e.g., autism and ADHD. I walk with my clients through the darkness of their experience, holding the space with compassion, helping them understand their experiences better, make sense of them, accept their whole existence, and fully love and embrace themselves. I believe healing is a process in which both the therapist and the clients contribute and grow together.

I'm James Marquis – Psychology Coach, Registered Hypnotherapist, Integral Eye Movement Therapist, NLP Practitioner, Trauma informed.
I completed Psychology Degree in 2007. I have worked in numerous mental health settings, including 11 years in the NHS & have been a private practitioner since 2013.
If you are struggling mentally or emotionally, have faced or are facing some difficult circumstances - all can be assisted. Life can throw some serious spanners in the works sometimes. We don't have to 'just cope', we can learn to overcome hurdles & obstacles, to come towards flourishing rather than be stuck languishing.

I work mainly from a Cognitive Behavioural Approach and also have trained and gained experience utilising hypnotherapy, person centred, transactional analysis, solution focused and NLP approaches. Initial experience working in the field of domestic abuse included working with complex co-existing issues. I have also gained experience with dependency issues and duel diagnosis. I volunteered with the Liverpool Hearing Voices Group for three years, this has allowed me to gain invaluable experience working with more challenging Mental Health and Emotional issues.

Are you struggling to balance a various life roles with your personal needs? I work with individuals and couples in the UK and internationally who feel disconnected from their purpose. Clients often come to me feeling stuck, overwhelmed by expectations, and wrestling with stress or emptiness. Together, we’ll explore the underlying causes of these feelings, move beyond the pressure to "just tough it out," and help you reclaim your authentic narrative. Insight tells us that motivation rarely arrives on its own; it is the act of stepping forward that creates the momentum for change.

Are you tired of constantly thinking about food, exercise or losing weight? You’re “good” for a few weeks, only to self-sabotage and beat yourself up after another binge. Perhaps food has always been the go to – whether you’re happy, stressed, or frustrated. Or perhaps exercise is the problem - you struggle to stick to a routine, or worry it's becoming obsessive. You may dislike your body, and feel a failure for letting yourself go. If these resonate, you’re not alone. It’s easy to get stuck in these negative cycles, but with the right support it's possible for things to change.

I also welcome clients exploring whether they may be neurodivergent. Together, we create a safe, accepting space where you can explore your experiences at your own pace, develop greater self-understanding, and move towards a life that feels more authentic and fulfilling.

Hello, I’m Adam, a pluralistic counsellor trained in person‑centred, psychodynamic and CBT approaches. While I draw from all three types of therapy, my work is rooted mainly in a person‑centred approach, that focuses on you and what you need.

Whether you’re looking for help with depression, anxiety, loss, or bereavement; or whether you’re struggling to change things that are causing problems in your life, such as setting boundaries, communicating yourself, addictions, or disordered eating patterns, I offer a range of counselling and psychotherapy services that can help you work through this distress. We would achieve this by first exploring what's going on for you and helping you express how you feel inside. And then we would work on the deeper underlying causes of your feelings so that you can achieve both relief and long-lasting change.

The nature of person-centred counselling means you are in control of what you want to talk about and how to use your sessions. I understand it's a big step to find help at difficult moments in life - it takes courage, trust and vulnerability to share your inner world with another person.
My aim is to provide a space where you can discuss what’s on your mind openly without judgment and with confidentiality, empathy and acceptance. I’ve experienced how personal insight, understanding and profound change can be gained from effective counselling, and I hope I can support you on your journey of self-exploration.
