Counselling in M25

Life can be extremely difficult and many people experience painful loss, grief, rejection and disappointment throughout their lives. At these times, I have personally benefited from support from others, both in my personal life and with support in therapy sessions. As such, I take great pride in being able to support others to navigate through difficult times in their life and see them reconnect with the life they value. If this sounds familiar, then you may benefit from speaking to someone independent, offering a non-judgemental, compassionate and professional psychological therapy service. Please contact me to see how I may help.

I am a Chartered Clinical psychologist (HCPC registered), providing assessment and therapy in Manchester. I have over 20 years of experience working with a range of psychological presentations e.g. anxiety, depression, OCD, personality disorder, trauma, PTSD etc. I have worked with adults, young people and families. If you are looking for that individualised, tailored approach look no further, give me a call to see if I can help you. The initial consultation is free of charge as I believe it is important to find the right therapist for you.

“I feel like quite a different person! Dov has taught me to learn from myself what's important in life, who's important in life, and that I'm actually one of the most important people in life. I would say that the work has been tremendous! His time, the way in which he helps you to open up and really evaluate what's going on and also his so many years of his own experience passes over to you. So it oozes confidence for you to then feel that "I can also be like that myself", which has been really, really helpful for me. Amanda Marks, London

Counselling can help us to gain a better understanding of ourselves and our feelings, as it can help to work through some challenging issues and periods in our lives. Counselling allows you to explore some of your innermost thoughts and feelings in a compassionate and empathic space, without judgement.

Are you struggling with fear, intrusive distressing thoughts, avoidance and generally not living the life that you want? Or are you low, hopeless, self critical and isolating yourself? I can help with these and other mental health difficulties through challenging your thoughts and making some changes to your current behaviours. CBT can also help with improving self-esteem and with overcoming phobias and past trauma. EMDR therapy is a powerful intervention for PTSD and trauma, new studies have also shown its effectiveness with anxiety disorders &grief

I became a therapist because I like people - I like to understand their stories and how that has brought them to where they are. When you are feeling stuck because of anxiety or depression it is usually pretty difficult to believe anyone would want to listen. Well I do. I want to help you discover and explore the events, thoughts, feelings, and patterns of behaviour that have made you feel trapped so that you can make changes. Imagine being able to see your friends, attend events, even just sleep, without anxious or self critical thoughts wearing you down. That is what therapy with me can offer.

My name is Mark Owen and I am a BACP and COSRT registered Counsellor with a degree in Marriage and Family therapy and a Postgraduate Diploma in Integrative Psychotherapy. Since 2012 I have worked in a wide variety of therapeutic settings both private care and within the NHS including, general mental health services, Eating Disorders Clinic, Bereavement Counselling and a Sexual Health Clinic. There are many models of therapy and everyone responds differently to the various methods. Using an Integrative Model of therapy, which means I use a range of different models, allows me to design a more tailor made plan for you.

Choosing a therapist can be a tricky task, there are just so many! As a guide, a big factor for therapeutic success is 'connection' - also known as 'the therapeutic alliance'. There is little you can see from a profile but perhaps take a moment to pause and check inwardly whether there is potential for a good therapeutic relationship. This practice is known as 'focusing'. I frequently use this method to help my clients access edge of awareness experiences that often were part of their life for many years. If you'd like to explore parts of yourself that you find burdening or at least unhelpful my approach may be of help.

A warm welcome to my profile. I have been in the field of emotional health for over 20 years & have contributed, either through counselling or research, to many people making a positive change in their life. You may be feeling stressed or 'not good enough' in life. Or wanting to make a big life decision or small manageable changes. I use various solution-focussed interventions. Some of my areas of interest are CBT for Postnatal & Menopausal difficulties, Personal Development & Growth, Imposter syndrome, Self-esteem & Confidence issues. Through my coaching & counselling skills, I can assist you in this journey of achieving your goal.

I help women who struggle with anxiety, become more confident and empowered. What is stopping you from living the life you want? Anxiety is a feeling of physical discomfort and mental anguish, ranging from mild to severe, and can affect your life significantly. Imagine you are about to take a very important exam or talking to a room full of people, and you have the normal sensations of your heart beating fast, a dry mouth and knots in your stomach, to mention a few. Now imagine these sensations happening when you are doing everyday things and knowing this fear is out of proportion to the situation that you are facing.

Counselling/ Psychotherapy: Effective counselling reduces confusion, allowing you to make effective decisions leading to positive changes in your attitude, behaviours & overall well-being. The ultimate aim of counselling is to enable you to make your own choices, reach your own decisions & go forward with a greater sense of clarity & self-management. Hypnotherapy & mindfulness can be introduced as a type of complementary therapy in which hypnosis is used to create a state of focused attention and increased suggestibility during which positive suggestions are made to rid you of emotional blockage. Mindfulness keeps us focused

I am a qualified psychotherapist, life coach, trainer and supervisor, with over 20 years experience in private practice. I work with adults who may be encountering life's stressors to a greater-than-usual degree or may be struggling to find their way forward in a diverse range of circumstances. These may be from personal or professional sources but usually involve our own, perhaps not very helpful, habitual ways of dealing with such difficulties - we all can revert to old habits in times of trouble. I am available to do both short- and long-term work according to need.

NOT CURRENTLY TAKING NEW REFERRALS I provide psychotherapy to people who are wanting to better understand themselves, their feelings and their relationships with others. Suffering is a part of being human, as is the need to be with another who can offer comfort at times of distress, confusion and grief. I have an in-depth understanding of how early developmental relationships and later traumatic life events can effect the neurobiology of the brain and the body; and how the role of connection, conversation and relationships are integral to our natural human healing processes.

Do you feel anxious? Numb? Powerless? Angry? Sad? Confused? Ashamed? Unworthy? Are you struggling in your relationship? Would you like to talk to someone who can support you and listen to you with care and respect? I create a safe and confidential space for you to speak freely and resolve any issues. I work either with Person Centred Therapy which is a talking therapy and also with EFT (Effective Freedom Technique) Tapping, which is tapping on pressure points to help allay fears and anxiety.
