Counselling in YO11

Do you find yourself caught in repetitive patterns that hinder your relationships and personal growth? Are you struggling to assert your autonomy and meet your own needs? You're not alone, and there's a path forward for you. Relational psychotherapy can be a great place to explore your struggles and needs. Together, we'll work towards uncovering the version of yourself that nurtures your growth.

Sometimes we all need a little help, juggling the pressures responsibilities of work, families and relationships. Are you looking for someone to help you understand your anxiety or depression. I work as a Person Centred Counsellor/Cognitive Behavioural Therapist. I work with depression, bereavement, general anxiety disorder (GAD) relationship issues, children (bullying/self-harm) and anxiety. Counselling can help alleviate some of the most distressing symptoms that people feel and allow you to see things from a different perspective. Therapy can help start this process of developing insight and self-awareness about your situation.

I am a Senior Accredited Counsellor. By talking & exploring your thoughts & feelings, you will discover underlying issues and discover strategies and new ways to cope & manage better. Therapy will help you gain a true sense of self & discover your potential. Any negative experiences or self-doubts you have, we will work through together so you overcome & find a more positive direction. Therapy will empower you to take control of your life. Therapy pets are available to sit with you throughout your sessions. I’m trained in Rewind Therapy for trauma. I hold a Certificate & Diploma in Supervision should any therapists require support.

People visit a cousellor in order to feel better about themselves and their lives. I believe it is essential to be able to relate to my client before I can contribute in any way to their well-being. By taking a Humanistic approach and developing an understanding relationship with you I allow you to vent your feelings in order for healing to begin. I can help you in areas such as anxiety, stress, depression, low self-esteem as well as being a valuable resource for self- awareness and development. In a safe and warm environment I work with you to facilitate the changes you seek.

Hello, I'm Andrew a warm, compassionate Relational Integrative Psychotherapist based in North Yorkshire. Are you feeling listless, or perhaps live with anxiety or worry? Do you struggle to focus or have a feeling of being ‘elsewhere’? Do you suspect you might be addicted to work, food, social media, alcohol, legal or illegal drugs? I have lived experience of overcoming large life challenges and I can relate to what you bring to our sessions. I'll be right by your side as we move forward towards your greater sense of all you can be.

I am a therapist/ psychotherapeutic counsellor at the end of advanced training, based in Scarborough. I have extensive experience of working with a range of mental health concerns including anxiety, depression, phobias, eating disorders, neurodivergence, grief/ bereavement, addiction and self-harm. I currently work with adult clients (18+) on a one-to-one basis, either in person from an office in Southcliff or via Skype.

Are you feeling anxious; uncertain or un-knowing of what comes next ? Perhaps you feel empty, alone or afraid. Have you been bereaved of a loved one; or feel a loss within yourself for choices never made. These experiences are all part of being human & each one can be difficult to face alone. Exploring these together, within the safe boundaries of a therapeutic relationship provides opportunity to better understand what may happening your life right now. I offer a safe, supportive, and understanding space in which you can openly explore whatever is causing you unease and difficulty in your life at this time.

The aim of sessions is to work towards an understanding of the challenges you face and the changes you wish to make. During sessions, you will be the focus of our attentions and I will value you without judgement, as a unique person, an equal. Having been in counselling myself, I have an understanding of the process. It can be a daunting prospect, and I will support you in that journey. I have listed many specialities and whilst I do have experience of working with them, I believe there is more to you than a "diagnosis" or an "issue" so the focus is on you the whole person, and whatever you choose to bring. NOTE - OVER 18'S ONLY

Counselling is an opportunity to be heard, to share with a trained person some of the difficulties that you encounter and to be supported to make positive changes to your life. I work in a respectful, empathic, understanding and compassionate way, providing a confidential, non-judgmental space to explore your thoughts, emotions and experiences. By reflecting on these experiences you can learn new ways of doing things and progress past what you feel is holding you back or causing you difficulty. I currently work from a comfortable and private space that is used solely for client sessions, online via video call or outdoors.

I'm an integrative relational psychotherapist and I use my experience of talking and relating to you in sessions to understand your way of being in the world, how you make sense of it and how you relate to others. Your journey is unique. Every time I've been listened to and understood I've come away feeling cared for and valued with a new sense of worth. I've learned that change is inevitable and that how I care for myself in the present affects my future.

Put yourself first and do what makes you happy! I will help you become your own therapist, providing you with healthy tools and support tailored for you.
