Counselling in Nottingham

At the heart of my practice is the emphasis on building a warm, safe and empathic therapeutic relationship based on acceptance and trust within a non judgemental and nurturing environment. I offer a safe space for you to explore your emotions to what is happening, or what has happened in your life and how this is affecting you in the present. I believe you are the expert of you and have all the capabilities to find your own way through your problems with my support, to build confidence within and facilitate personal growth.

Hello, I'm Sam. I am a Humanistic and Integrative counsellor and psychotherapist and I work with adults, children, and young people. My philosophy is that our experiences and relationships shape us into who we are. I believe the therapeutic relationship can help people make sense of who they truly are so that they can live a more fulfilling life. I offer an empathic, compassionate, non-judgemental relational experience to help facilitate self-awareness, change, and growth.

Choosing the right counsellor or psychotherapist can be difficult. You may not even know where to start or how you feel. These difficulties and challenges can become overwhelming. Perhaps you feel stuck, helpless, anxious, confused or unfulfilled? Are the challenges you’re faced with impacting your self-esteem, relationships and general health?

Therapy is a huge investment, which can be life changing when we work with someone who is the right fit, and who understands your needs for self growth and development. I have a lot of experience working with men's mental health, with self esteem, anxiety, neurodiversity, gay, bisexual, lesbian and queer mental health. I work actively and creatively, and have an interest in creative arts and wellbeing. I’m an Integrative Psychotherapist registered/accredited by the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP). I have two qualifications in counselling (Cert. and Clin.Dip) and two qualifications in Psychotherapy (Clin Dip, MSc).

Life, what's it all about? It can bring unexpected joy and/or unwanted challenges. However, we know that those challenges which create psychological and physical strains can preoccupy us the most. As a counsellor, I have a longstanding interest in supporting children, young people and adults who are going through difficult times. I will listen and engage with empathy, thereby making easier for you to feel safe as you share your thoughts and experiences.

Are there changes you want to make in your life, but feel there are barriers preventing you? Maybe you feel anxious, depressed, or disconnected from others. You might feel stuck in ways that you don’t understand. ​Are you finding it difficult to cope with significant life changes? Perhaps you have become a parent, you are making a career change, a relationship is ending or changing, or you’ve suffered a bereavement? ​My relational therapy is aimed at helping you to navigate these changes in your life to live in a more empowered and fulfilled way. ​

We are all unique and present different ranges of issues requiring highly tailored therapy. As a UKCP accredited, Clinical Integrative Psychotherapist, qualified (with Distinction), at MSc level. I work in a relational/humanistic way, offering myself, my knowledge, and life experience to an extensive range of clients, to encourage growth and healing.

People often reach out to therapy when they are ready for change. Some people do not even know what those changes might be yet. Your journey with therapy is very personal and you might be interested in understanding yourself better, or simply want a safe and confidential space to talk, get things off your mind. Whatever your thoughts are right now, I imagine you are hoping for something to be different in your life.

Hello, I'm Christopher, a qualified and experienced Psychotherapist and Counsellor working with, Adults, Children & Young People and Couples in Mansfield and Nottinghamshire. As a Humanistic Psychotherapist and Counsellor, I believe that everyone has the capacity to achieve their fullest potential. Anyone who is struggling with a personal concern can seek counselling. No issue is too big or too small to ask for support. I believe therapy should be accessible to everyone, when they need it. Therefore, I work with clients of all ages, from 4 years old and upwards. I also offer discounted rates in certain circumstances.

As an integrative therapist, I am relational in my approach, this style places great emphasis on the relationship between the client and the therapist. I believe the most important part of any therapy is to build a trusting relationship, where you can feel safe and secure so you feel able to share your story and experiences in a confidential, non-judgmental space where you can explore positive and challenging aspects of your life and any change you wish to explore or make. I have personal experience in sexual, physical, emotional and mental abuse; divorce; living with a narcissist; step-parenting; addiction and PTSD.

My aim as a therapist is to focus on finding a flexible way for everyone to access therapy. Having previously worked shifts I am aware of the difficulties of having a busy life that does not fit into the average 9-5 template and how this can make accessing weekly appointments difficult. I struggled to find my therapist when I was working shifts and I would like to offer my clients a different way of working, booking sessions week by week. This takes away the commitment of attending at the same time and date.

Hello, my name is Caroline. I'm a qualified psychotherapist and counsellor working in private practice in the Beeston and Long Eaton area, providing weekly face to face personal therapy. Are you struggling with day to day life, or have you lost a sense of who you are? Engaging in therapy can help you to understand yourself better and help you learn how to manage your emotions. I understand that reaching out for help may feel daunting, I too felt the same when I made a commitment to therapy years ago. Please be assured I will guide you through the process ensuring a supportive, calm and unique environment.

Whatever it is that brings you to therapy, I will sit with you in a safe space, listen to you and together we will get to know your inner world, however messy, complex and conflicted it may seem to begin with. As a result as eg. childhood trauma, toxic family dynamics, discrimination or the experience of being neurodivergent (self or externally diagnosed) in a neurotypical world you might feel not good enough or even ashamed. The world might feel like it is too much or you might not feel much at all. Together we will work to re-built a way to relearn to relate with yourself based on agency, authenticity and wholeness.

You might feel unable to share some of the thoughts and feelings that you’re having with others due to feeling that you may be criticised, ridiculed or misunderstood. Depression can make us feel disconnected from others and alone in life.
