Hi I'm Carole, thanks for checking out my profile. I have always been interested in people, how we all experience our world, and how life events affect us. I understand that we can have difficulties with thoughts, feelings, circumstances and relationships leading to confusion, low self esteem, lack of confidence, stress and difficulty coping with life. The effects of the Covid 19 pandemic have resulted in more stressful situations, with less effective coping skills, due to isolation, bereavement, fear and lack of opportunity to look after our mental health as we previously did. I understand your experience is unique to you.

Welcome and thank you for visiting my page. I am an accredited integrative counsellor and psychotherapist. Integrative means that I can use different counselling techniques such as Person Centred, Psychodynamic and CBT, this allows me to provide therapy that is best suited to your individual needs. You may be searching here because you want something in your life to change, or because you need a safe place to explore the past and how it may be affecting you now. Whatever the reason I can provide a safe non-judgmental space and work collaboratively with you on this journey to make positive changes in your life.

Hi, my name is Peter Clarke. Sometimes we just need to talk to someone outside of our circle. Someone who will listen to us and not advise us. Someone who will offer empathy and acceptance, not judgment and condemnation. In short, sometimes we need to speak to someone who will listen to us, and help us become the person we wish to be. This is the person i am to my clients.

Way Forward offers Professional Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, and Specialist Counselling services to Adults, children, and adolescents. I have been supporting people who are struggling with their mental health and well-being for more than 20 years in a variety of settings including the NHS, Private, Voluntary, and Public Sectors. My overall approach to therapy tends to be straightforward and honest, I value transparency and direct communication in the therapeutic relationship.

Is stress or anxiety holding you back, making you irritable and stopping you from being the person you want to be? Are thoughts about the past or concerns about the future overwhelming you? Is life getting on top of you? I can work with you to help cope with the demands of work and home life, pocess the painful past so that you can focus on enjoying the present, build your self-esteem, be less short-tempered and equip you with tools that you can use now and in the future.

Life can throw many challenges and sometimes we can get a bit stuck and not sure what to do to change the situation. I understand that it can be difficult to ask for help but seeking some help is the first step to improving your situation.. Sometimes it is easier talking to someone out side your family circle or friendship group about an issue that is causing you or your family distress and instead to talk to a professional therapist I offer a free 15 minute consultation if you are unsure if talking therapy can help. Therapy can help build self esteem, reduce anxiety , improve relationships with family and peers .

Are thoughts of "I can't" holding you back? Talk to us in confidence about our range of supports and become someone who says: "I CAN manage stress / anxiety / worry / anger / low mood", OR "I CAN manage or stop rituals and compulsions incl counting / shopping / cleaning / hair-or skin pulling", OR "I CAN cope and be confident / sociable / productive / myself". Dare to believe at "The I CAN Centre". You CAN have the insights and tools to feel great, be inspired and live your best life!

After having taught for 7 years at the Faculty of Psychology of an Italian private University, I moved to Northern Ireland where I founded Athena Mental Health which I now direct as the CEO. I am a Fellow of the National Council of Integrative Psychotherapists (UK) where I served as Ethics Committee Member and currently offer Clinical Supervision. During the COVID19 pandemic I moved my business online accessing the global market where I still work treating adults, couples and families from any country in the world. I was trained to provide therapy in English to speakers of other languages.

Do you find yourself trapped in a relentless cycle of yo-yo dieting that never seems to deliver the lasting results you desire? Are you consumed by thoughts about food and weight, and no matter how hard you try to regain control over your eating, it often feels like you're fighting a losing battle? Perhaps you've come to the realization that traditional diets do more harm than good, and you're left feeling lost, not knowing where to turn for a solution. I'm here to guide you on a path towards a healthier relationship with food, one where you can eat freely without guilt or fear.

I am an experienced Specialist Doctor in Child & Adolescent Psychotherapy. I work in the NHS and private practice.

Are you looking for a safe, supportive, and confidential space where you can share what is on your mind? If you choose to have counselling with me I will be there to listen and be by your side as you navigate what it is that brought you to counselling. If you would like to improve, or better understand your situation, or to have time to completely focus on you, together we can explore this in a relaxed and open way. If you are experiencing difficult thoughts or feelings, hopefully you will feel you can share these with me and we can find a way forward together.

Are you struggling with low self-esteem, confidence issues, knowing your worth or perhaps unable to set boundaries? Do you feel like you always come last and need to prioritise yourself? Maybe you don't feel understood or heard? I can help with that – change is possible! Day to day functioning can be tough when you're not feeling in control of your thoughts and behaviours, help is available. With the right space, support and time you can learn tools to help with day to day functioning. Therapy can help you accept your past and get clarity on the future.

Hi, my name is Aisling. I am a registered Art Psychotherapist. In Art Psychotherapy we use a range of creative materials to communicate feelings, emotions and experiences. It’s not necessary to be “good” at art as we don’t focus on the final product. It’s much more important that you are open to the creative process; sometimes how we feel isn’t pretty, so the art we create isn’t pretty either. My aim is to provide a safe and confidential space for you to open up and explore your inner world; my role is to hold space for what may come up for you. I aim to meet my clients where they are, with understanding and connection.

As a Family and Couple Systemic Psychotherapist I work with individuals, couples, families, organisations & groups. I have particular specialism in working with couple and marriage dilemmas, separation and divorce/dissolution.

Relationships can be a great strength and resource in our lives. Other times, problems and challenges can get created in our relationships with others where we feel 'stuck' and begins to take negatively impact our lives.
