Self Esteem Counselling in Cardiff

I have helped clients with mild mental health issues such as general stress to higher needs such as schizophrenia and personality disorders. I would say my expertise lies mostly with anxiety, depression and self-esteem issues. I work with the clients goals in mind, at their own pace and ability. No two clients are the same and adjust my skills accordingly. Whether you’re looking for small changes in perspective, understanding or attitude, or you want a deeper more meaningful change in thinking, behaviour and habits I am willing to walk that journey with you.

Are you feeling lonely, isolated, depressed, anxious or have thoughts of suicide? Have you experienced an event such as bereavement, loss of a job or the end of a relationship? Is your self esteem or confidence low? Do you feel trapped in a situation and see no way out? Are you a parent/carer and feel alone or that no one understands? I offer counselling to help you explore your feelings safely and without judgement. I specialise in anxiety and depression, self esteem , loss and change and parenting/caring, I also have professional and personal knowledge and understanding of Autism and PDA.

Hello I am a qualified counsellor specialising in pluralistic practice. The pluralistic theory is an integrated approach meaning I am comfortable working in different types of therapy, such as person centred, CBT, and solution focused. The pluralistic approach believes that as human’s we are all unique, and therefore therapy should be tailored towards a client’s specific goals and needs, taking their individual experiences and preferences into account. I am passionate about this approach and believe therapy should be a collaborative effort where the client and counsellor work together towards achieving a shared aim.

I can only imagine how hard it feels to reach out for help for yourself or your child; to want things to feel better and not know how to make it happen. This is what I can help you with. Maybe you or your child feel anxious all the time and just want to feel safe? Or perhaps you can't seem to get rid of that little voice inside that tells you you'll never be good enough? Maybe your child is struggling with understanding themselves and the world around them and you just want them to feel happy and safe? I understand that situations like these can feel overwhelming and I am passionate about helping people overcome them and feel better

At certain life stages we may experience anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, feelings of a loss or meaningless, loss of direction or purpose, or difficulty with building meaningful relationships. I will work with you to identify what these symptoms mean and how they may be pointing you to discover a deeper sense of self. My approach is integrative and allows for self-discovery. My methodology offers focus, allowing you to explore and connect to a truer sense of who you are. I encourage you to develop a sense of curiosity to understand yourself more profoundly. We will work together, to support your needs.

It can be a very daunting experience trying to find a counsellor. You may have several questions and possibly not be sure if counselling is for you. Talking to a professional can help. My name is Inge, I am a qualified counsellor and I offer an empathetic space for you to explore what is causing you distress, so you can move through your counselling journey at a pace that is comfortable for you. I adopt a person led approach whereby I work with you by continually discussing how the direction your counselling journey is progressing and if it is having the desired effect you had hoped for.

Are you struggling with a sudden or prolonged period of distress? I provide a calm, safe, non-judgmental, trauma-sensitive space that recognises your humanity and individuality. I work with people experiencing anxiety, panic, stress, depression, agoraphobia, life changes, shock, overwhelm, low self-esteem, insomnia. Together we can explore the effects on you, possible causes and management. I am experienced in working alongside conventional mental health diagnoses, & equally comfortable working purely with you and your individual experience. I offer online counselling for all and also now work in-person with women - LGTBQ safe.

I am a fully qualified counsellor / therapist with 18 years NHS experience (GP counsellor), and a further 5+ years of private practice. My practice is based in a very welcoming space in the heart of Cowbridge. As an integrative counsellor, I work with my clients to tailor appropriate interventions and help them to set and reach their therapeutic goals. Whatever difficulties you may bring to counselling, and whatever issues with mood, self esteem or anxiety that these difficulties have caused you, there will be a way forward.

Hello, I’m Hayley and I am a qualified therapeutic counsellor. I have experience providing long term and short term counselling in a mental health service and in private practice, working with clients presenting with a wide range of concerns and experiencing a variety of issues which include depression, anxiety, ADHD, autism, social anxiety, post traumatic stress, general anxiety disorder, relationship problems, loss and bereavement, loneliness and isolation, life changing events, family issues, work stress, addiction, confidence and self-esteem issues.

My counselling practice is guided by over 20 years of supporting people in difficult and often stressful situations, gained by working operationally in the NHS, Armed Forces, Emergency Services and the RNLI, as well as teaching in schools and a university. This experience informs my practice, enabling me to provide a safe and non-judgemental environment to work through the concern, challenge or problem being faced. I offer CBT, Relationship (Couples) Counselling and ADHD Support to individuals and couples, delivered with a warm, calm and compassionate focus. I can provide counselling face-to-face, online or whilst walking outdoors.

In a relaxed environment and using a warm, collaborative approach, I help clients who seek relief from issues such as anxiety, generalized anxiety disorder, social phobia, depression, specific phobias, low self-esteem, grief and loss (including pet loss), and chronic conditions. Be encouraged that my counselling environment is a place where you will be heard, understood, encouraged, and accepted just as you are. Anxiety and life events can bring about major stresses. I offer you a safe place to offload and the support you need to take charge of your life again.

Even the strongest people can struggle from time to time. Are you feeling like your relationships aren't as good as they could be? Would you like to feel better about yourself? Are there any behaviours or substances that feel like they're getting out of hand for you? I can help.

Sessions available both in person and online. Specialising in anxiety and trauma and related issues, and with over 20 years experience as a Senior psychotherapist, using CBT, integrative therapy, EMDR and Clinical Supervision I work with TRAUMA, anxiety disorders and a wide range of related and other issues.

Alongside counselling adults my passion is to work with parents and children to help families flourish. I am compassionate and hope filled in the work that I will do with you. I am hopeful that we can help you start new ways to live the life you desire.

Hello, I hope you are all well and keeping safe in this difficult time. I can understand the uncertainty, struggle, stress, and worries this COVID-19 pandemic has brought about. We are all in the familiar boat and highly likely experiencing similar emotions. I would like to do my bit and my best to help you get through this difficult time. Hence, I am offering low-cost counseling for those experiencing financial difficulties or receiving universal credit. I can help with achieving mental well-being through mindfulness techniques and techniques that can help instantly switch off from those worrying vicious cycles of thoughts.

Psychological support is about investing in you. Life can be chaotic, intense, confusing, and we can be left feeling disconnected from ourselves, our lives, and the people around us. Sometimes we just need some space to stop and think. Psychological support is also about developing a deeper understanding of yourself - who you are, what you need, what matters to you. For others, it's about building on existing skills - how to get more out of relationships, improving communication, being more assertive, boosting your sleep and performance, learning to be the best version of yourself.

I am a BABCP accredited CBT therapist specialising in helping people with OCD. I have experience in working with the various forms of OCD including what is sometimes called "Pure O". In addition to CBT for OCD I also offer therapy for other anxiety related problems, including social anxiety and panic attacks, or other issues like low self-esteem.

There are many reasons why we may want to seek help. Most of us at some point in our lives experience challenges, or just feel that we are not enjoying life as we know we could. I know it can feel overwhelming to reach out, yet this is often the hardest part & proof you are ready for positive change. Whether it is self-esteem, anger, anxiety, grief or chronic illness (to name just a few area's I can offer support with); there are many therapeutic options we can use to together to help you heal. You are unique and ever evolving and so should your therapy; my pluralistic training allows me to do this.

I support adults from a variety of cultures and backgrounds. I work affirmatively with the LGBTQIplus community and I am an LGBTQplus ally. Sessions are offered face to face as well as via Zoom, telephone and outdoors. I work with (but not limited to) trauma, bereavement, depression, anxiety, sexual and domestic violence, self-harm, relationship issues, stress and identity, including low self-esteem. I will be by your side to understand where you want to go, who you want to be and how to get there; focusing on what matters to you, offering new perspectives, gentle challenges and an opportunity to feel lighter.
