I recognise the importance of working within the BACP ethical framework, which informs me of best practice and professional integrity.

I understand that finding a suitable counsellor is very important so, to help you decide whether I am right for you I am offering an initial 30-minute session free of charge. Our sessions will be held in a safe, secure and confidential space to explore the difficulties you are experiencing. As we know, everyone is different so I will adapt and shape our sessions in a way that works for you. we may find that by working creatively you will be able to express locked emotions.which may help you to gain awareness and find a new perspective.

It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support and empower you in that journey.

Whether you are looking for support with anxiety, depression or feeling generally ‘stuck’ and don’t know how to move forward, I can help. You may be low or worried and need new ways to cope, a health professional experiencing burnout, living with a long-term health condition, struggling with appearance-related/body image concerns or want to make healthy lifestyle changes. In our sessions I will use a mixture of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing, depending on your needs. I strive to work in line with my values, which include compassion, kindness and curiosity.

We all get stuck, from time to time. Sometimes it feels like we cannot move forward. It can be frustrating, constraining and painful. Yet there is energy behind every blockage, and looking at it from above – as if from a bridge – can be the first step to unlocking our potential. This is what I aim to offer to my clients, whether they are facing depression, anxiety, loss, recovering from trauma or going through a difficult transition. My approach is creative, in that it adapts to individual needs, and culturally sensitive, as it draws on my experience of transit and change. I practise in English and Italian. Face to face and online.

Are you sad, experiencing an ongoing battle with low mood and depression? Do you need time and space to work through what's causing your anxiety , stress, upset in your life? Does the daily struggle leave you exhausted and feeling like you want to give up? Physical symptoms are a result of an overthinking mind, negative thought patterns and habits that are causing you emotional distress. You are not alone and effective therapy can be a life changing process enabling you to feel happier and more fulfilled. Taking back control needs new skills, coping mechanisms and a different perspective - making the call is the first step.

Life can be a struggle and sometimes we need extra help. You may have feeling of being stuck and lost, or you can’t achieve the things that you want. Often this can turn in to criticism and self blame. Counselling offers you a safe, confidential space to talk about anything you might be going through and to support whatever growth or change you would like in your life.

I offer a counselling and psychotherapy service for those who would like to address issues that have arisen during the Covid pandemic. These may involve an alteration in mood, confidence and ability to access the outdoors for physical and/ or emotional reasons. We can communicate by phone or video initialy and if subsequently agreed? at carefully spaced meetings outdoors. This could include exercise or accessing outdoor social environments as indicated and agreed with you.

Hi. I'm Bernadette, a qualified and experienced person-centred counsellor in Southampton and the New Forest area. Following over 20 years' experience working within the NHS, I now work for two well known charities supporting those with life limiting illness and bereavement, along with a local charity supporting both victims and survivors of domestic and sexual violence, whilst also running my own successful private practice. I offer an understanding and empathic safe space and environment to facilitate your personal growth and support you whilst navigating life's challenges without judgement.

It may be the time in your life when you are feeling lost and confused. When your life has control over you rather then you being in control over your life. Or you may be stuck at the 'crossroads' and not sure which direction to take. Perhaps you may be looking for deeper meaning and understanding of yourself and those around you. Counselling can help to explore things you are finding difficult, to gain more understanding, deeper meaning and the sense of liberation that may come with it.

Finding a new counsellor can be daunting, so have a read of my profile and how I work, to see if you feel we could work together. You are welcome to contact me for more information. I offer a professional, confidential and friendly therapeutic space for you to explore what is troubling you. Sessions will be f-2-f/online in a warm and safe environment where you can bring any subject you wish to discuss without fear of judgment. Counselling can lead to self discovery, personal growth, confidence and understanding, helping you to come to your own decisions, feel improved moods and discover a new, brighter, happier way of being.

Has a current or previous relationship left you feeling sad, disconnected, and lost? Perhaps a controlling or abusive relationship has shattered your life, and left you feeling scared or unable to have the relationships, and life, you truly would like. As a result of such experiences, has your self-esteem and sense of worth plummeted, leaving you feeling hopeless and sometimes even, to blame or undeserving? I’m Grace, and I am a fully qualified Integrative therapist specialising in Relationships, abuse and trauma.

I am a fully qualified person centred therapist with over 15 years experience. I specialise in working with clients suffering from anxiety, depression and stress and take great pleasure in seeing clients make progress. In each session, I apply the core conditions of the person centred approach; empathy, congruence and unconditional positive regard. Sessions with me are non-directive and non-judgmental, helping to create a supportive environment where you can share your journey freely. Together, we will work through the challenges you're facing and work towards a place where you can feel at ease with yourself.

Hi! My name is Claudia (she/her). I'm a counsellor, therapist, mother, wife, daughter, dog lover, friend among many other roles! The challenges of having all these roles made me reflect on the importance of taking care of our mental health which led to my training in Gestalt Therapy. My profession is my passion and I feel privileged to help transform lives for the better. Many times, the way we deal with our problems and needs ends up keeping us stuck, generating more and more suffering like anxiety, depression and stress.

She is currently working on an acute adult ward within the private sector and NHS. She has trained in psychotherapy with an integrative approach, meaning that she can tailor therapy to meet your needs and who you are. An integrative approach can be used to treat any number of psychological problems and disorders, including abuse, trauma, depression, anxiety and personality disorders.

You may experience problems in daily functioning, be it difficulties in private, intimate and/or work relationships, engaging in self-harming, symptoms of anxiety and/or depression, or have experienced physical or emotional trauma which continuously and seriously affect your life. Often experiences from the past and lack of tools can cause emotional turmoil and stress. Purely being human and experiencing fears of the future can push people to their limits. Psychotherapy offers a safe and confidential space in which in which you are accompanied while honestly talking and exploring issues that have not found a suitable space before.
