Counselling in Wales

Hi, I'm Neil. I appreciate that life can sometimes feel difficult, stressful and overwhelming. Many of us struggle with relationships, responsibilities and the pressures of balancing our work and home lives. Sometimes you may feel anxious or depressed without understanding the reason why, or have experienced an event that you're struggling to work through. Maybe you just feel flat or unmotivated, or perhaps you're finding life hard to face after losing someone close to you. If any of this resonates with how you feel, I can help you.

Hi my name is Alan and a qualified counsellor who has helped over 150 clients over 9 years. I believe counselling is a safe area for you to explore what is concerning you and working in a solution focus way help you to make choices that will improve the experience that is called life. I offer a safe space for counselling and also life and work coaching. Please see my web site for more details. I offer face to face, video or telephone sessions. Mask wearing is optional and social distancing is observed.

Do you need a safe confidential place to speak openly, with someone neutral and non-judgemental? You may be looking to make some changes, or have a dilemma to talk through. Maybe you've lost a loved one or pet, feel isolated or stressed, or have a problem that's preventing you from moving forward. I work to understand things from your viewpoint, and to build a trusting therapeutic relationship where you feel comfortable enough to be yourself. I listen, understand, accept, and believe, and appreciate that talking about feelings is difficult. Being interactive means that you'll get much more than 'hmms' and 'uh-huhs' from me.

Are trauma experiences getting in the way of living a life in line with your goals, beliefs, values, and desires? Does anxiety stop you from doing the things you want to do? Do flashbacks get in the way of functioning at home, work, or school? Have you been diagnosed with a health condition and you’re finding it difficult to adapt? Therapy helps you understand the cause of your symptoms and how to break the cycle. You will learn skills to help you manage these symptoms so that you can achieve other things in your life that are important to you. These might be working, having a family, or simply living trauma-response free.

Hi, I’m Angharad, a fully qualified and registered counsellor with many years experience. If you’re struggling right now then do get in touch or visit conwycounselling.co.uk to find out how I can help. Life can be hard going and, at times, most of us experience some form of distress or difficulty. Perhaps you are feeling anxious, depressed or confused about relationships or work. Perhaps you are facing painful experiences through illness, bereavement or family breakdown. Perhaps you are feeling stuck or have lost direction or a sense of who you are.

The reasons that people may seek therapy are very individual and personal - it may be due to emotional problems, anxiety, depression, substance use, early life experiences, trauma, or because of a feeling that life has somehow lost its balance. Yet many issues and problems are embedded within our wider social and cultural context. Adverse childhood experiences and other difficult or traumatic experiences later in life can have a profound effect on how we view ourselves, our relationship with others and the wider world, usually leading to a mixture of vulnerability as well as resilience. Therapies such as EMDR or CBT can help.

I am a fully qualified and experienced Counsellor offering a confidential and affordable counselling service to individuals, who does not offer advice or tell you what to do but enables a time and space for you to gather your thoughts and gain a greater insight/awareness of yourself leading to change or acceptance of your situation.

As a qualified therapist, I hold a BSc (Hons) degree in Systemic Counselling from The Family Institute (University of South Wales). I am a systemically trained counsellor,’ Systemic' therapy really means 'relational' as it emphasises the fact that people live in a world with others, not just inside their heads or bodies. I work with relationships, looking at patterns, communication, and desired changes. My main approach is person-centred therapy, although I will often use other therapeutic approaches and techniques that I believe will work well with my client.

I specialise in working with adults and young people living with the effects of the trauma of childhood sexual abuse, rape, and sexual assault. You may be experiencing symptoms of PTSD or Complex PTSD which can include overwhelming anxiety, depression, flashbacks, nightmares, panic attacks, self-harm, addictions and suicidal thoughts. I also work with all other types of trauma. One of the treatments that I offer is Emotion-Focused Therapy which helps to make sense of the effect that trauma is having on your life and includes strategies for minimising anxiety and overwhelm and working with the 'inner child' if required.

Hello! I am Amo. I am a Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist and a Counsellor. CBT is an evidenced based psychotherapeutic model, that aims to empower people to overcome their mental health challenges and reach their goals. In the session, we would focus on understanding your problem and identifying the most effective tools and strategies to help you manage the problem. I will provide a safe, warm, and non-judgemental environment for us to work together and explore your mental health related challenges. During each session, we will discuss effective and bespoke tools and strategies that you could apply to overcome these challenges.

My vision as an integrated counsellor is to serve the individual needs of each client and in turn create a world where trauma and anxiety are healed in a more compassionate way that leaves you, the client, feeling in control of your own healing. It is my belief that trauma and anxiety cannot be healed by talking alone and a more diverse, holistic approach brings with it a more compassionate way of healing which brings a real difference to the lives of clients.

You may be anxious, depressed or perhaps experience issues in some of your relationships; you may feel you are not getting the most out of your life. I work with the unconscious through dreams and imagery to help you connect more fully with yourself, giving you access to your own deeper needs and desires clearing the way for you to change as you chose. You may need the convenience of working online or via the telephone (F2F not available). Often my way of working appeals to those who are interested in the arts and/or the spiritual realm and those who appreciate deeper ways of working, in safe and supportive relationship.

I am an integrative counsellor with 16 years experience. I combine extensive knowledge from different theories and approaches to tailor the client experience to their needs. I work with the client to identify the issues they would like to work on and the timescale in which they would like to do this, whether it be short term or longer work. I work with all ages and an extensive list of issues, some common issues I work with are Autism and ADHD symptoms, anxiety, depression, self harm, suicide, stress, family issues, LGBTQ+ issues and Children and young people. Please contact me for a consultation to see if suitable.

I can help with: trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, stress, burn-out, and to solve problems and work to uncover new ways of being, embrace positive change or solve confusing emotional issues. There are many different reasons for coming to therapy and all are valid. Seeing a therapist is dedicated time, once a week for an hour which gives you the space to devote to what you need to work on, which can be really helpful in alleviating stress and worry and will go towards keeping your mental well-being tip top.

I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story! I want to help you achieve whatever solutions and life changes you are looking for, while experiencing yourself in new ways. Life is too short to surrender to fears, be controlled by past trauma, hold grudges, surrender to discrimination, or be anxious all the time. I want you to be free of emotional pain, break out of negative behavioural patterns, be able to deal with whatever life brings, and find meaning in all life areas. My approach is person-centred, inclusive and integrative. I aim to provide a safe and non-judgemental environment for you.

Have you had experiences in your past that are bubbling to the surface and affecting your day-to-day life? Are traumatic memories and experiences making relationships with yourself and others difficult or complicated? Do you feel a loss of control or have consuming negative thoughts about yourself and what others may feel about you? Whatever brings you here, my counselling space is for you to explore and express how you feel without judgement and in confidence. Reaching out and talking through your experience can help you to process thoughts & emotions, begin to make goals and move towards developing a life where you will thrive.

I'm passionate about counselling because it has been both life-saving and life-changing for me. Since early childhood I had been anxious and depressed and received very little help until I reached 40, was bringing up 4 children and became very concerned about the effect my moods could be having on them. In counselling I began to experience hope, and was gradually shown how to observe my thought patterns, to look at how my childhood had affected me, and how to recover and change. I'm a different person now, as my husband and friends would tell you. Now I love to help others recover from depression and anxiety in particular.

I am a qualified psychotherapist and have been working as a psychotherapist and counsellor in private practice since 1996. I offer a supportive, safe and confidential space where we can look together at what is troubling you. Throughout the years I have worked with many people of different ages, faiths and nationalities and with many different issues. I have found that ultimately it is the security and safety of the therapist/client relationship that is key to enabling healing and growth. My core stance as a therapist is transpersonal which means that I look at the whole person; body, mind feelings and spirit.
