Counselling in ME16

Why I offer Ecotherapy….Ever wondered why we are bombarded with images of nature? Ecotherapy doesn’t only offer ways to understand our issues, from anxiety, depression through to trauma and loneliness, but provides powerful ways of effecting real change . The kind of change that helps us feel comfortable in our own body.

Are you feeling tired and struggling with every day life? Do you find that even the simplest of tasks are making you anxious? Have you thought about counselling but don't know where to start or what it is all about? Maybe you have experienced bereavement and are struggling with your emotions and find that people just tell you to pull yourself together. Sometimes just talking to a professional who will listen to you without judgment and help you work through these difficult times can really help. You can be assured of confidentiality, empathy, honesty and understanding without judgment

We believe that everyone who needs to see a counsellor should be able to do so. Cost should not be the reason that you are not able to access support. Day Time Sessions (7am- 5pm) £28. Evening Sessions (5pm-8pm) £30. Whatever your reasons for seeking support, be assured you will be treated with respect and confidentiality, and given the safe space to be yourself.

Welcome. Sometimes life presents challenges and the turbulence of these can be overwhelming and may impact negatively on our mental health and emotional well-being. Psychotherapy and counselling offer a safe space to explore your experiences of these difficulties. Seeking help from a professional may be the next step and psychotherapy or counselling gives you the opportunity to look at your life, your problems and concerns. I am a qualified psychotherapist and counsellor with over 30 years experience. In my private practice I work with adults experiencing all aspects of mental ill health concerns, relationship and life issues.

Welcome, I am Karon-Lee. All of us may experience times when we feel overwhelmed or unable to cope and we can also experience feelings of anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, depression, grief, loss and loneliness which can feel upsetting and painful for us. I will work with you to provide that trusting supportive relationship that allows you to raise sensitive issues in a caring and safe space without judgement so that you can start to make the changes you want in moving forward in your life. By talking and sharing your feelings, you will feel listened to and accepted for who you are. I offer a free 15 minute telephone consultation.

Hello, I'm Abie. I am a clinical psychologist, experienced in working with young people and adults from a wide variety of backgrounds. I offer short- and long-term psychological therapy both online and in person. Often, people come to see me when they are experiencing some kind of difficulty or turning point in their life. This might be to do with having intense emotions, unusual thoughts, challenges forming or maintaining relationships, or unhelpful patterns of behaviour. By working with me, you will have the time and space to focus on whatever is important to you, in a non-judgemental and supportive environment.

I treat a broad range of mental health conditions and worked as a senior psychotherapist in the NHS for many years. I have worked extensively with sexual and domestic abuse, anxiety and borderline personality issues as well as depression and Post-traumatic Stress conditions. I am experienced interculturally in helping people with racial and discrimination issues. I work in both English and Spanish. Hablo Espanol y Ingles y ofrezco terapia en los dos idomas.

If you are seeking counselling for the first time, or want to reconnect with therapy, it can feel a bit daunting trying to choose a therapist. Finding someone you feel comfortable with is the key, so I offer a free initial consultation. Come along or call me for a 20 minute, no obligation, conversation to help you make up your mind. If we decide to work together, my aim will be to provide a safe and professional space where we can build a strong therapeutic relationship which will enable you to talk freely about whatever it is that brings you to therapy.

Hi, my name is Ieva and counselling has been my personal journey at the beginning and when I realised how much it helped me I wanted to help others the same way. Counselling is a safe space to talk through your thoughts and feelings in a confidential environment with a trained professional. I will listen and pay attention to everything you say to me and during this process we both would look at the things that might be going on. Sometimes it is very difficult to understand ourselves when we don't have anyone to talk to. Talking is a way to process thoughts and release emotions.

Are you feeling anxious/depressed, alone? Do you feel that you may have been the victim of narcissistic abuse or domestic violence? Maybe you are still in this relationship and finding it difficult to leave? Searching for a counsellor can be a tough process. I know you may find it extremely difficult to make that first contact, especially when you feel at your most vulnerable. I will help to put you at ease by providing a safe and confidential environment, where you will be listened to. This will be a space for you to explore your feelings without being judged or given advice. I will support you and help you to find some clarity.

Are you tired of feeling so bad? Are the efforts you are making to free yourself from this only serving to make you feel worse? If you are feeling sad, depressed, anxious, stressed, unfulfilled or if you are struggling with low self-esteem, or with a situation or relationship in your life, you don’t have to tackle this alone. It’s not always easy to see what might be keeping you stuck or to see a positive way forward. We all benefit from reaching out to others to help get some perspective on what is going on for us. Counselling can provide you with a safe, understanding, confidential space to help you do this. ​

Do you find yourself with feelings of overwhelm in your body which you don’t understand? Is it stopping your ability to thrive and flourish? As you go through life, you may find you lose true self as you experience obstacles, unexpected changes, losses or setbacks. You might forget self-care, as you focus on those around you instead of your own needs. As a result, your feelings can become suppressed, but the symptoms can show up as headaches, tightness in the body, anxiety, loss of control, anger, shame, low self-worth, self-blame, relationship issues or attachment re-enactments.
