Sleep or Insomnia Counselling in Swansea
Hi, I’m Conor, an Integrative Counsellor & Psychotherapist. More importantly, I’m a person - just like you. I’ve experienced life’s joys, challenges and messiness - maybe not so different from what you’re facing now. I don’t believe in a one size fits all approach to therapy because no two people are the same, so I integrate various therapeutic approaches to tailor our sessions to what we feel is helpful for you and your unique experiences. To me, therapy can be a space for anything between serious work and humour but it isn’t rocket science – we're two people meeting, listening, and responding.

Hello, my name is David and thank you for taking the time to read my profile. The fact that you’re considering seeing a counsellor means that you’re unhappy with a part of your life, whether it be an unfulfilling relationship, an uncertainty about career or lifestyle choices, or thoughts and behaviours that inhibit your ability to lead the life that you once dared to imagine. The pandemic has also forced people to look again at their life and reappraise what they really want from it.

You may be feeling anxious, low, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns you don’t fully understand. Perhaps you are struggling with the effects of trauma, recurring relationship difficulties, or the pressure to cope while carrying significant professional or personal responsibility. Outwardly you may function well, yet privately feel dissatisfied or emotionally stretched. You want a clearer understanding of what is happening and practical, effective ways to move forward. My patients are often thoughtful, capable individuals seeking meaningful psychological change, greater emotional freedom, and a more sustainable way of living.

Hi, thank you for taking the time to view my profile. If you are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, burnt out, or unsure who you are beneath all the expectations you’ve carried, you’re not alone. Many of the people I work with come to therapy because something in their lives no longer feels sustainable: relationships, identity, work, or a sense of having lost touch with themselves and what they want in life. I support clients who want to: make sense of relationships, understand and overcome anxiety, depression, stress and other difficulties with mental health, unlearn people pleasing and more.

I’m a neurodivergent therapist working with clients who want to understand themselves more deeply and live more authentically.

I can imagine deciding whether you want to have therapy or need therapy is a big question. Perhaps you have suffered a loss, a trauma or are going through a transition of some kind and you want the space and time to work through it. Perhaps this emotional distress whether it be anxiety, low mood, is impacting on your relationships, work and your home life. It could be that you’ve tried many things and for some reason those old ways of coping that have done you well in the past just aren’t working anymore and you feel like you’re struggling. I provide evidence based psychological treatment that might help.

Sleep or Insomnia Counsellors
How effective is treatment for insomnia?
The most effective treatments for insomnia are behavioral techniques that reduce anxiety, including anxiety about falling asleep, and allow the body’s natural cycles to be recalibrated. The most common treatment is cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), which researchers have found to be more useful than medication, with rates of success as high as 80 percent.
Are there specific medications for sleep problems?
There are many medications, both over-the-counter and prescription that treat sleep problems. Supplements such as melatonin are popular and may help, though there is little evidence that it is more effective than a placebo. Prescription medications such as zolpidem are sometimes prescribed.
Are there natural treatments for sleep problems?
There are many natural treatments for everyday sleep problems. Reducing blue-light emitting screens, setting a regular bedtime, regular exercise, reducing caffeine and nicotine consumption, and keeping the bedroom dark and cool at night are all lifestyle changes that can help those who struggle with sleep but may not reach the level of an insomnia diagnosis.
What’s the difference between having trouble falling asleep and insomnia?
Life events, stress, and anxiety can lead to sleepless nights for everyone from time to time. To be diagnosed with insomnia, a patient must experience trouble falling asleep, trouble remaining asleep, waking up too early, or non-restorative sleep at least three nights per week for at least one month. Sleep problems affect one-third to one-half of the population, while chronic insomnia affects about 10 to 15 percent of people.
