Hi, I'm Anjulie! I appreciate you coming here and taking the time to look at my profile. It is so important to me that the individual I am sat with, feels safe and comfortable and therefore I will do my absolute best to help you feel at ease. In order for us to work well together, a strong foundation of trust is so important. To begin with, we will spend some time getting to know each other and then together, we can think about what may help you move forward. My aim is to offer a warm, compassion, safe space for you to feel that you can talk to me.

I work in a collaborative way with clients who present with unaddressed trauma, relational problems, anxiety, depression, low mood and a feeling of hopelessness. I have a special interest in trauma, attachment issues and addiction. Many of my clients identify with feeling stuck in their current situation or those who want to have a better relationship with themselves.

I provide counselling from my private practice at my home in Melksham, Wiltshire. This is a private room providing a safe and confidential space for our work together. I can offer various daytime and evening appointments throughout the week. My training helps me to provide you with a reliable, regular, non-judgmental space where you can begin to talk about whatever is on your mind. I work in what is called an integrative way, using a wide range of therapeutic models, but primarily focusing on humanistic counselling.

I work with adults using a holistic approach who are feeling stuck. Many people since COVID are struggling with depression, stress, anxiety, and burnout. Some people are turning to alcohol, drugs or other addictive behaviours to cope. Its ok to find life hard. I specialise in working with people who are worrying they aren’t managing their mental health, who may have experienced trauma, and may be self-medicating. I offer an entirely non-judgemental, confidential, compassionate and safe space to talk about some of these things and help you to identify what changes you would like to make. I also specialise in working with ADHD.

Hello! I am Dr. Zheng Zhou, a warm, open-minded, and non-judgmental clinical psychologist, deeply passionate about exploring the realms of culture, philosophy, and spirituality. This profound passion has driven me to cherish the essence of tailoring therapy to authentically align with the unique needs of each individual I have the privilege of working with. Through collaborative efforts, I assist my clients on their path of self-discovery, deftly intertwining the threads of their ethnicity, gender, religion, sexuality, spirituality, and culture, creating a rich and diverse tapestry of their identity.

Life is difficult, confusing and scary sometimes, we can feel misunderstood and overwhelmed by issues that seem to multiply by the day. Perhaps you have a vision of where you want to go but no way to get there, perhaps even planning what you want for dinner is a struggle. You may be anxious, depressed, lost, grieving, searching for direction or struggling to cope with it all. I understand. Speaking about emotional pain can feel risky. Discovering the honesty and courage to put your experience into words can contribute to developing insight, self-confidence and self-respect.
