Interpersonal Counselling in Cardiff

Hi, I'm Tamsin, a qualified Integrative Counsellor & Psychotherapist, offering you a safe and comfortable space to explore the issues you are struggling with. My counselling approach is person-centred, so the focus will be on your story, and enabling you to gain new awareness and understanding of your experiences, the coping patterns you’ve developed, and the best way forward towards positive change. By integrating different counselling theories and therapeutic practices, we can use the most appropriate talking and creative interventions to help you get a new and clearer perspective.

I am a qualified Therapist with over 6 years of experience working within the substance misuse & mental health sector. The key to my work with clients is the belief that, through a psychotherapeutic relationship, we can gain insights into our patterns of behaviour. Working relationally, we can explore the possibility of change and begin to think of alternative positions that can move towards a more compassionate, and fulfilled version of ourselves. As I am currently in full training as a Transactional Analyst, I'm offering a reduced rate to clients seeking Psychotherapy.

New life seasons are full of uncertainty. A limbo-land. It can be really unsettling to have to rethink how you are in the world. What your values and priorities are now in this new context. Often there is a real longing for a sense of belonging; yet there is also a push against the pressure to perform and perfect to fit in. Together we can seek a place where you feel released into living out your values and more able to find purpose in the pain. Increase your access to your more creative self. Empower you to feel more freedom to relax and relish being alive.

Are you suffering from anxiety, depression, trauma or addiction? Or do you feel that something is missing, or just isn't quite right? Do you want a fast, effective & embodied solution without a lifetime of therapy whilst in the comfort of your home/office? Then get in touch...

Although older than many, I bring decades of life experience to my counselling. I have experienced most 'rites of passage' and find that my wide experience enables me to work sympathetically and non-judgementally with my clients: there's nothing you can tell me that will shock me! We will work together in a welcoming, confidential environment to enable you to better understand your needs and the options open to you. With my support, you will be able to share your difficulties, worries and fears, developing a greater understanding of yourself, your situation and those long-standing difficulties that you feel you struggle with.

I have a long-standing career in mental health spanning more than 30 years as a mental health nurse, chartered psychologist, academic, researcher and lecturer in mental health and psychology. I have worked with people experiencing a wide range of issues from mild to severe and enduring mental health difficulties and have used a variety of different helping approaches under supervision. I also work with the media to offer my expertise in different mental health areas. I believe in working within a relational way to help you process, recover, heal and grow.

Hi, if you feeling anxious, confused or worried? Struggling to cope or overwhelmed? I will give you a confidential safe space to talk and be heard. I am professional, non-judgmental and empathetic. I work with people with a range of issues including but not limited to, Depression and Anxiety, Suicidal thoughts, Relationships and their issues, sex and sexuality, greater life balance, work related stress and more. Counselling is a talking therapy which gives you a space to explore your thoughts and feelings without judgement. I aim to help you feel more in control and empower you to make the changes YOU want to your life!

Are you struggling with your life, your self-esteem or your relationships? Struggling to understand who you are, what you need, how to cope and what changes you could make to improve your life? Haunted by your past? Terrified of your future? Then the humanistic and integrative talking therapy I offer could help you. I hold a safe space of acceptance of everything you are and want to present, honouring your life experience and difficulties. I facilitate awareness & will, healing & resilience, and well-being to help you tailor your life around your unique identity and needs.

I am an integrative therapist specialising in using eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy to treat a wide range of psychological issues. I am highly trained in psychotherapy, neuroscience and trauma and believe that our current issues can often be traced back to early adverse experiences in childhood. Compared to standard talking therapy EMDR generally takes a shorter amount of time to get to the root cause of the issue. Rather than just dealing with symptom management (like CBT), EMDR therapy works directly with the cause of your distress.

You may be somebody with mild to moderate mental health issues such as anxiety, depression and/or stress. These may be long-standing or more recent, for example reactions to challenging circumstances in the present or more recent past. You will be motivated and willing to engage actively in your own recovery and self-awareness. While I do not have an ideal client - I have worked with a range of clients in a number of settings including the NHS and Employee Assistance Providers - I do find it very rewarding and interesting to work with the body and creative approaches, and particularly welcome clients open to working in this way.

In private practice, I work with individuals, groups and organisations. My therapeutic style is embedded in relationship and engagement. Therefore if you experience challenges with relationship or communication, this is my strength. Following 20 years of experience within NHS, private practice and educational organisations I utilize somatic psychology, human development and potential along with creative methodologies. Ultimately, uncovering potential, dealing with unhelpful behaviours.

I aim to provide an environment where you can flourish and grow towards your true self by helping you to move beyond past issues and traumas and develop new templates of relating to others. I work in a way that is warm and welcoming, we will work together to help you to better understand, accept and value yourself. I am experienced in Western psychological theories and Eastern spirituality and use both to help us understand your way of being. We will work at your speed and in the direction of your choosing. I can help with a range of issues including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, addictions or just feeling down.

Life can become overwhelming, confusing, and difficult to manage. Experiences such as loss, bereavement and major life changes like a medical crisis can make us lose our sense of self and purpose. Depression, anxiety and personality disorders can distort our sense of self, rob us off our full personal potential and quality of life leaving us feeling depleted. Therapy is a place to regain and restore your sense of self and purpose and to help you turn these experiences to an opportunity to grow.

Hi there. If you stopped here, that means that probably you are looking for some assistance, so I hope you will find this information useful when choosing the right support for your needs. Let me start asking you a question: What steps are you taking to ensure your emotional and psychological needs are satisfied? If you are struggling with saying no and ending up pleasing everybody but yourself, feel trapped and incapable to get rid of worries and anxiety or just overwhelmed with your current life situation then perhaps you are not meeting some of your needs. I can help you with that.

Expressing how we feel can be difficult. Sometimes impossible. Through art, we can begin to communicate and express ourselves. Creativity allows access and exploration at a different level. Words are not enough or perhaps you do not know how you feel? No creative experience is needed. I meet you where you are each session, using different interventions to support you on each part of your therapeutic journey. Talking is part of this process. Each session, we will explore what you are experiencing and the goals that you would like to reach with your sessions and you will be guided to work creatively and verbally.

Counselling provides a safe space to explore your thoughts, feelings & behaviours in order to challenge what is unhelpful to you & to then support you to learn new coping strategies so that you can move forward. The work we do together can enable you to enhance your wellbeing and think about your relationships & how you contribute to them. In this space you can begin to understand your past experiences & how they link to present day anxieties.

Are you struggling with issues related to your psychological or physical health such as low mood, anxiety, chronic pain, or depression? Many of us at some point in our lives find ourselves struggling to cope with many of life's challenges. There comes a time when help is needed from a certified professional to cope with these challenges. I am a licensed Practitioner Health Psychologist in the South Wales area, and I’m here to support you on your journey toward healing and self-discovery. I offer a warm, calm, and friendly environment that gives people space to discuss their difficulties with someone in which they can trust.

Hello, my name is Nina and I'm a CBT counsellor and counselling psychologist in training. I currently work in an NHS primary care service. You might be looking for counselling because you want to understand yourself better or it might be because you have specific issues you need to deal with. From a psychological approach, I'm interested in exploring how any issues have developed and what is happening to maintain them. How many sessions you want will depend on what you want to gain from therapy,

Are you feeling drained, disinterested, stressed, anxious, or depressed... you feel like you've lost part of 'you' along the way or maybe things have gone 'off balance'. You're not alone. Maybe you're feeling overwhelmed by guiding a young adult through this transition phase in society. Would you like to eliminate anxiety and confidently find clarity in confusion? Do you feel ready to emerge as the real 'you'? Are you looking for the right person with an established system to help you navigate this new reality? Then you're in the right place, contact me and find out how I can help you have the life and wellbeing you want.

It is very human to have psychological difficulties at various points in our lives. Difficult things can happen to us leaving us feeling scared and/ or low/ depressed. Society can also make us feel pressurised to look a certain way and we can feel pretty worthless if don't believe that we conform to these societal expectations. All of these can be both frightening and overwhelming, which makes it so important to have a calm, compassionate and skilful therapist to guide you towards recovery.
