Counselling in SK7

Hello, I'm Katie. I offer psychotherapy and counselling to adults at my private garden office in Bramhall, Stockport and online. I provide a nurturing, open and honest space, where you can talk about your difficulties, without judgment. Having experienced therapy myself, I know it can take time to feel comfortable talking to a stranger, but there is no rush. We will work together at your pace and comfort level. For me, therapy is about getting in touch with who we are. By developing our self-awareness and gaining insight into our thoughts, feelings and behaviours, we can develop the freedom to change what isn't working for us.

Hello and welcome to my profile. I offer a non judgemental, sensitive service, regardless of the problem. It could be a rational fear or irrational phobia holding you back, some issues can feel embarrassing, you may be overwhelmed with shame or guilt. Or maybe you're fed up with an unexplained physical health problem. I am passionate about helping people heal, forgive themselves and appreciate that they did the best they could do with the resources that were available to them at that time. I understand that everyone experiences things differently, everything is relative. I will help you find yourself again.

Do you feel Anxious or Depressed? Are you Angry, Exhausted, Stuck or Overwhelmed? Seeking counselling is a big step, and finding the right counsellor for you is the key to success. I offer a FREE 30min consultation call, so you can see if my style will work for you, or visit my website to see if you feel my approach will work for you. Life is so busy with many competing pressures. We face seemingly impossible situations through loss or trauma. It's easy to become lost or overwhelmed and start to struggle. Often we cant talk to friends and family, and we can start to feel alone, anxious or stuck.

Hi I'm Susie. I believe that relationships are really important. We encounter lots of different relationships over the course of our lives: friends, siblings, parents, bosses, co-workers…and then there’s the relationship we have with ourselves. Our unique life experiences inform our thoughts, feelings and behaviours; and sometimes we can get stuck in outdated patterns. Common mental health conditions such as: depression, anxiety, OCD, phobias, and addiction, are often symptoms of the effects of adverse life experiences. Treating the underlying causes of whichever symptoms are affecting you can dramatically reduce their impact.

My name is Emily, I am a qualified and insured therapeutic counsellor. Friendly and approachable I am able to help you along the way with issuing you feel are impacting you. Counselling can help you cope with: A mental health condition, such as depression or anxiety. An upsetting physical health condition, such as infertility. A difficult life event, such as a bereavement, a relationship breakdown or work-related stress. Difficult emotions – for example, low self-esteem or anger. & other issues, such as sexual identity

I am a qualified and experienced psychotherapist, I am a registered member of BACP and UKCP accredited. I offer therapy online or by telephone, on a short-term or medium-term basis, in addition to long-term open-ended therapy. I work with people from age eighteen, through to older adults, and from a range of backgrounds. My focus is to help you to overcome the problems that the impact of life experiences can cause. Whether this is related to a current experience or one that is from earlier in your life, or perhaps from childhood. My aim is to help you resolve the issues and to move towards achieving your personal goals.

Isn’t it strange how we talk the least about the things we think about the most?! Talking about your feelings, your emotions, your behaviours and your thoughts can feel overwhelming and conflicted, not knowing where to begin, this can seem scary and uncomfortable. My role is to support you to acknowledge, explore, accept, and understand them in order to achieve growth & positive change. My philosophy is that you hold your own answers internally but you are unable to access them, working collaboratively we will unlock them using your strengths and gaining empowerment.

I am a Senior Health Psychologist (part time) in the NHS who supports people with chronic illness, including Long Covid, diabetes and heart disease. I also support people with lifestyle issues such as weight, diet including eating habits, poor sleep, & exercise. I work with health professionals who are experiencing difficult issues either at work or in their home life due to a chronic illness or Long Covid. I would like to help you live the life you want and provide you with the support you need to create a rich and meaningful life despite the difficulties you are experiencing at this point in time.

As an integrative counsellor, I draw on a number of modalities of counselling & CBT to support my clients. Acceptance without judgement and offering a safe and confidential space for my clients is at the core of my practice. I have helped clients from all backgrounds to manage; low mood, anxiety, depression and low self esteem. I work with both individual and couples therapy clients ( Accredited- Tavistock Relationships). I support clients facing relationship difficulties and those looking for help with loss / bereavement. I bring culturally sensitive awareness to all my work including the impact of identity, race & faith.

I have a keen interest in working with issues relating to self-esteem and shame. Overthinking, constantly comparing yourself to others, people-pleasing, and holding high expectations for yourself that are impossible to achieve (perfectionism), to name a few, can all be symptoms of low self-esteem. These beliefs and behaviours can cause difficulties in your relationship with others and most importantly, yourself. It can feel impossible to break the cycle or know how to move forward. I can support you to make sense of your experiences so that you might develop self-worth and find a way through that works for you.

Through my counselling training, work and life experiences, I have realised that every person and every problem is unique. Counselling protects your autonomy and allows you to feel that you are being listened to and valued; that your issues are real and important but significantly they can be worked through and there is a way to move on. It gives you a space which is confidential, secure and supportive whatever the issue whether it's a problem with a relationship or the devastation of grief. I see my clients as valuable human beings who are temporarily lost and confused and my job is to help them find clarity and hope.

Hi, I'm Sarah. We all have times when we find it hard to cope. Counselling can help you understand why you think, feel and act like you do. It can help you develop positive strategies to get what you want out of life. How we think, feel and behave is part of being human. Problems can arise when we get 'stuck' in negative thought patterns; when our feelings become overwhelming; when our behaviour is self-destructive and doesn't result in us getting what we need; when we worry about the future, dwell on the past and find it hard to live in the present. I believe the most important relationship we have is the relationship with ourself.

I feel passionately about working with clients who are struggling with their emotional wellbeing. These difficulties can cause difficulties in relationships, at work and on a person's experiences of connecting with themselves and the world around them. I work sensitively and supportively with clients who have experienced a number of difficult life experiences including grief, trauma, relationship difficulties to name but a few. I can help you to feel like you develop a better more compassionate understanding of yourself and help you to feel like you are moving forward in life rather than feeling stuck and directionless.

I am a fully qualified BACP Accredited counsellor who has 15years experience in counselling children and young people who are experiencing stress, anxiety, sadness, low mood, anger and other difficult emotions. I provide a safe space in which the young person can explore their feelings surrounding an issue and become better able to understand and express those feelings. For younger children this could also include creative drawing, completing bereavement booklets, making memory boxes, as well as talking through feelings and exploring ways to cope when difficult feelings arise.

As an integrative practitioner I call upon a range of concepts and therapeutic tools to help clients deal with dysfunctional ways of feeling, behaving and living. My principle belief is that despite the problems we encounter, we all have the capacity for change. sometimes this is hard to visualise, difficult to accept. problems can appear overwhelming and insurmountable. By working in collaboration with clients, as partner's with a common purpose, unhealthy rules for living and core beliefs can be challenged, this can lead clients to happier more fulfilling ways of being that reach into our untapped potential.
