Hello, I'm Osian. I've been working in Mental Health for 10 years as a counsellor, supervisor and trainer. I support individuals and couples in-person and online through the medium of English and Welsh. Sometimes we go through distressing, difficult confusing experiences. Day-to-day life can become a bit of a struggle, even relationships become strained. In therapy we can better understand you and your life experiences. By exploring and untangling these difficulties it's possible to make sense of them. This can bring about positive changes where broader perspectives and a deeper understanding that can bring about greater clarity.
I specialise in Trauma, Relationships, Grief and Loss. This includes dealing with difficult changes that come with distressing life events and how we can grow from adverse experiences. I regularly work with other issues including Anxiety, Depression, Confidence, Self Esteem, Identity issues, understanding behaviours, Neurodivergence, and Stress at work.
I'm trained as an integrative therapist and therefore use different methods based upon the people and issues I work with.  The process is underpinned by getting to know and understand you within safe, supportive and confidential boundaries. I'm more than happy with an introductory phone call to clarify your needs and/or details before we start.

When we experience loss it can impact the way we see ourseleves, relationships and the world around us. It's something that's done to us. It tends to be a negative view and can be difficult to make any sense of it. The therapy will help to better undertsand your context via a process that is done with you. Eventually, things will be done by you as a new direction emerges from difficulty.

Like most therapist I use a person-centred approach which will focus on you. This can be odd initially since we rarely prioritise ourselves like this. Psychodynamics is another which brings your history into view which provides clues around what's going on today. I also use Transactional Analysis and Existential therapy which helps to understand behaviours and how we see the world around us.
