Counselling in YO19

I have a breadth of experience in supporting individuals with a range of difficulties with mood, health conditions, brain injury or neurological disorder. I can help you if you are struggling to regulate your mood and provide you with some strategies to help you feel able to live life in line with your values. I provide a safe, compassionate space for you to explore and share your inner thoughts and feelings with the aim of easing any mental struggle or pain that prevents you from living a peaceful and fulfilling life.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious or unhappy? Have you noticed difficult or upsetting thoughts? With many years of experience helping people to overcome negative and unhelpful patterns, I can help you find new skills, knowledge and techniques to make lasting meaningful change. I work together with my clients to understand how their psychological issues developed, what is maintaining them and how they can be overcome. I aim to provide an empathic, safe and supportive environment for clients to explore emotional difficulties.

Are you feeling overwhelmed and struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, low self esteem, and finding it difficult to control your emotions? sometimes we need support to explore our thoughts and feelings to enable us to understand the root cause of our problems and then carefully look at strategies that can change our situation and improve our ability to cope more effectively. I am an Accredited EMDR practitioner and have over 18 years experience working with the British military and civilians presenting with PTSD.

I am a HCPC registered Dramatherapist with extensive experience both in Clinical and Private practice in Dramatherapy, Psychodynamic therapy, Interpersonal Psychotherapy, Counselling, and Coaching for since 2002. I've worked with variety of individuals and groups age 13-60 yrs old. My work experience includes working with people with Autism, Asperger's, PTSD, Social media Depression, ADHD, Depression, Relationship issues, Anxiety and Stress. I also work in supporting people for specific purposes such as; to improve self-esteem / self care, to develop social / coping skills, to explore sexuality, to regain strength and more.

Welcome to my profile and thank you for stopping by. I’m guessing you’re here because you think it might be time to tackle your problems. You’re tired of the status quo and would love to achieve positive change. Having worked therapeutically with people since 1999, I have lots of experience of treating a whole range of issues, and have supported many people to achieve the health and well-being they always dreamed of. Sometimes it’s hard to believe that change is possible, particularly if the problem’s been around for a long time. I’m here to tell you that, with our mutual hard work and dedication, it really is within your reach.

Whether you are experiencing anxiety, having difficulty adapting to the ever-changing demands of the world, or finding it hard to express yourself, you don't have to cope alone. Flexible Mind Psychology offers specialist therapy for those who are feeling disconnected or isolated, even when they are around lots of people, leaving them feeling unable to access help from others or unable to contemplate new ways of thinking. If you are someone who is often assumed to be coping perfectly well, who doesn’t like to make a fuss, and who appears to be okay on the outside but who is actually struggling on the inside, get in touch.

I appreciate that it can feel difficult in asking for help and to put trust in someone you have never met, especially with often upsetting and difficult issues. It can feel like we may have somehow failed or its a last resort in trying to resolve difficulties. I have helped many people like yourself, who also felt unsure initially on what to expect and feelings of trepidation or embarrassment in asking for help. I believe that the therapeutic relationship between counsellor and client is all important to be effective in addressing the issues and helping you to make the changes that you want and to get things back on track.

I am an independent psychotherapeutic practitioner. My approach is to work creatively with client autonomy and integrate a dynamic therapy striving to meet each clients individuality: when working with issues such as Anxiety/Stress; OCD; Relationship issues; Life difficulties/changes; Depression/Bereavement. If you’re reading this profile your are being kind to self in taking the first step, to help ameliorate your issues.

I am able to support clients through a range of emotional and mental health issues, I will always listen and try to fully understand your situation so we can work together to help you. I have an interest in mindfulness and my approach in supporting clients is mindful, enabling a calming approach to our work together.

Hello, and welcome to my page in this directory. I am a highly qualified and experienced clinical psychologist located near the centre of York. Prior to working full time in private practice I worked as a clinical psychologist in NHS mental health services for 14years. I offer individual therapy to adults (across the age range) with a wide range of difficulties including: anxiety, panic, depression, low mood, trauma, emotional neglect, stress, grief, self-esteem and relationship problems. Please see my website for more details of how I work.

I offer two Therapeutic counselling rooms in a calm non- judgmental space for you to bring your life experiences and feelings. We all experience difficulties in life sitting with us from the past or present and over time can impact on us in our daily life such as increased levels of Anxiety, stress and avoidance. Counselling can be a way for you to explore these issues and for us together find a way to help you through this and gain self- awareness to discover the changes you want to make in life. In the process to find out more about yourself through your journey.

I provide a safe and confidential environment to reflect and talk about the relationship with your self, others and the world. I am an experienced counsellor and psychotherapist. I see each person as an individual and will work collaboratively, supportively and respectfully alongside you with whatever it is that has brought you here at this time. I believe that although we cannot change the past, it is possible to see events and ourselves differently; no longer being controlled by the past but using it as a means of understanding why the present might look or feel as it does, gaining awareness and regaining power for the future

I work with adults and young people (16+). My clients come for a range of reasons. I have experience working in a range of settings with clients who have different goals/needs. However, most of my experience is with clients who have experienced trauma. Usually this work is around supporting clients to work through or process the things that cause them distress, and exploring what living more fully or meaningfully looks like, so that they are less impacted by things that have happened in the past. I welcome all enquiries, and I welcome students and trainee therapists.

If you are experiencing difficulties that are impacting on your life and have decided to take the step to access some help to make a change to your life, then I can help you. I specialise in working with individuals experiencing difficulties due to depression, anxiety and trauma, drawing upon my skills as an Accredited Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist, an EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing) Practitioner and Interpersonal Psychotherapist for Depression (IPT). I work with an individual to help them gain a better understanding of themselves, their difficulties and strategies improve how they feel.

I am Dr Sari Harenwall, a clinical psychologist based in York and online. I have a several years experience working for the NHS, not for profit organisations and privately. I am passionate about reducing human suffering through the provision of evidence-based therapy and coaching to help people build a more fulfilling life. I specialise in integrative physical and mental health including somatisation where emotional pain manifests itself physically. I have an interest in trauma and the impact on the body as well as anxieties, low mood, relationship problems and compassionate leadership.
