Life brings moments when we need dedicated space and support to meet ourselves. Perhaps you're going through a difficult transition. Or maybe you're seeking change, sensing there is more to life than you're experiencing. You might want to know yourself more deeply - to find clarity, ease, and aliveness. My intention is to create a safe, real, and compassionate space where all of your experience can be seen and accepted.

Life can be a struggle challenging and confusing. Sometimes it can be difficult to talk openly to the people in your life. As an experienced psychotherapist I provide a safe, confidential space to explore whatever is on your mind. I can support you in finding your way through the difficulties you’re experiencing, or have experienced in the past, in a way that feels right for you, and at a pace that feels comfortable. We can work together to make sense of what you’re thinking, feeling and going through, allowing you to develop a sense of healing, establish goals and grow towards them, and gain a greater understanding of yourself.

Hello, I’m Heidi. I decided to retrain as a counsellor when I saw the positive impact therapy has on people's lives whilst working in HR and teaching. My style is relaxed and conversational, encouraging you to explore your thoughts and feelings at your own pace. I pride myself on my ability to build rapport and ensure people feel seen and heard. I am warm, empathic and non-judgemental and hope that the relationship we form will allow you to feel safe and supported. I understand how daunting finding the right therapist can be, but the fact that you’re here means you have taken the first important step.

It can be exhausting to navigate life’s challenges, particularly within this current climate of uncertainty. You may be impacted by particular concerns, such as current or past trauma, bereavement/loss, struggles within your relationships, anxiety or depression. Or you may desire to increase your own self-awareness. I strive to be alongside you in whatever you may be feeling, providing a genuine, empathetic, non-judgemental, safe space where you can explore your feelings and beliefs, how your present and past experiences may be impacting upon you, and developing the personal resilience, resources and growth that you may be seeking.

Hello, I am Charlotte and I'm a counsellor and psychotherapist. I am also a trauma and complex trauma professional. Clients of mine often say they 'feel different, feel they don't fit in' or have a sense that 'they are not able to function like "normal" people'. They find daily life hard, triggering and often overwhelming. Usually, we start by speaking about how you have been in the last few weeks & months. We look at what issues you have been struggling with, and how you managed to cope. We also reflect on your support system and things which bring you joy. Then, we would talk about how life was like for you as a child, and how

While there are many different approaches to psychotherapy and counselling, I work principally within the psychoanalytic tradition, a key part of which is to work in collaboration with clients to try to understand the unconscious origins of difficulties affecting our lives in the present. The aim is not to give advice, but rather to support people who have reached a point in their lives where they feel themselves to be facing difficult, sometimes confusing feelings and states of mind, to offer a reliable place to come and be listened to, without fear of being judged, criticised or told what to do.

I have immediate vacancies for new clients. I have a particular interest in and understanding of the creative industries and education sector, ASD and life transitions. I regularly assist people challenged by anxiety, depression, and victims of crime including traumatic events. My counselling approach is integrative: a person-centred (humanistic) core to my work, but also drawing upon psychodynamic and cognitive behavioural theories and methods. I use creative ideas within my practice so that our work may include activities beyond talking and listening, enabling a more flexible and holistic approach to counselling therapy.

Counsellor, MNCPS Acc.

I’m a psychotherapist and recovery coach offering a calm, grounded space for people who feel stuck, bound, or unsure how to change. Often this shows up as a quiet sense that something isn’t right, sometimes as more urgent patterns that feel difficult to shift. My work is especially focused on addiction and recovery, alongside the deeper patterns that sit beneath them. I don’t offer quick fixes or directive solutions. Change, in my experience, happens more softly and at a pace that respects the person in front of me. The work is exploratory rather than prescriptive, and rarely linear.

My previous career as a scriptwriter has led me to be particularly attended to clients' narratives. Each individual has their unique story to tell. Each contains elements of significant people,conflicts, struggles and resources. It may impact the way we see ourselves, others and the world. By engaging in the process of therapy, we may open up new possibilities and to rewrite our stories.

I'm here to help you get different results. Whether you're experiencing stress, depression, anxiety, anger or low self-esteem, we can work it out - sometimes within just 4 to 6 sessions. ​Maybe you've already identified some repeating patterns in your life that lead you where you don't want - or like - to be; maybe you feel like a puppet on strings, knowing unseen forces are pulling you but unable to identify quite what they are and thus break free? I'll work with you on your behavioural patterns, starting with identifying them (either you can explain them to me or we can identify them together) then looking at their sources and identifying ways of breaking free of them.

The modern pressures of life can take their toll on us – increasing responsibilities and being connected 24/7 can leave us feeling burnt out, anxious, and overwhelmed. Even when we do manage to disconnect, we find it difficult to disconnect from our racing thoughts. If you’re new to therapy it can be daunting, however taking this brave step can be rewarding. It can give you the space to explore what is really going on, process difficult emotions, develop healthy coping strategies and restore your mental well-being - so that you aren’t just surviving, but thriving in the world.

Perhaps you’re used to keeping the peace, putting other people first or doubting yourself, and it’s beginning to leave you anxious, low or frustrated. You may be struggling with confidence, difficult relationship patterns, boundaries or a sense of where your life is heading. I work particularly well with men, both gay and straight, although my practice is open to everyone. Together we can explore what has shaped these patterns, understand the part you may play in them, and work towards greater confidence, healthier relationships and more choice in how you live.

You may be seeking counselling or psychotherapy for any number of reasons. Perhaps something specific has happened to you that you would like to talk about. Perhaps you don't really know what is wrong, but you are aware of feeling low, anxious, overwhelmed or stressed and feel you would like some support in working through and exploring what might be informing those feelings. In both, and all cases, my approach as a Psychotherapist is to work in a way which provides a safe, empathetic and confidential space, where you and I can together, explore what has brought you to therapy, and help you get back on track.

I became a therapist after facing challenges in my own childhood, which showed me how transformative understanding and support can be. Over the years, I’ve worked with people experiencing grief, loss, adoption-related experiences, and ongoing stress. Painful or distressing memories and thoughts sometimes keep returning, no matter how hard we try to avoid or manage them. Putting others first, struggling to say no, or pushing yourself to keep going can feel familiar. These coping strategies helped at the time, but over the years they can become exhausting or feel like the new “normal.”
