The initial phone call, usually 30 mins is free. note: some may wish to meet face to face to talk. The client may feel up-set and often emotional as they begin to talk about their issues and concerns. I make sure they feel as comfortable as is possible by listening and understanding their problems. In therapy I use a person centered approach that allows the client to lead while I interject when appropriate. I may ask a question about their past that is linked to their present day issue which helps the client connect the dots. The client feels empowered and says "I never saw it that way before" or "The penny has just dropped".

Sometimes life can just feel out of kilter and we don't know why, or the weight of every day life is heavy. When we feel like this it can be helpful to have someone to talk to who is not already involved and invested in your life. I work across a spectrum of mental health concerns, but have a particular interest in trauma, grief/loss, maternal mental health (in particular crisis pregnancy and miscarriage), addiction, depression, anxiety, low-self esteem and perfectionism.

Welcome to Haven Counselling, My name is Frank Ryder and I am deeply committed to providing you with a top quality service. I work with couples and individuals. My aim is to work with you to find effective answers that bring relief and healing. When working with couples I bring a wealth of experience going back many years. I can help you especially in areas such as communication, couple conflict, sexual problems, infidelity, domestic violence, pre-marriage doubts, all relationship issues and many others. For individuals I offer a range of therapies and experience dealing with issues such as Anxiety, Stress, Esteem, Self-confidence.

I offer a safe space to explore your life and develop it further, as an integrative counsellor I believe that every individual has a unique story to tell and often life experiences and situations maybe be similar; however for each person the emotional impact can be different and often the cause of considerable confusion, chaotic feelings and unhelpful thoughts. As such I draw on the many approaches I have learnt over the previous 8 years of training to meet the clients individual needs, I work from a trauma informed approach which includes person-centred therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), humanistic, and mindfulness.

Is life difficult right now ? Perhaps you’re feeling anxious or down ? Sometimes you may feel like you don’t really fit in ? Talking to friends and family can help. Although there may be times when they are not available, or the issue troubling you may be too personally difficult to discuss with them. Talking to someone who is independent, whom you can trust to have your best interests at heart, can be a relief ! In these situations it can help to talk to a trusted counsellor or psychotherapist.

The client is always at the centre of the counselling process and their holistic psychological welfare is of utmost importance. Our counselling space is a safe environment where the beliefs and values of the client are respected and their sense of independence and growth are nurtured.Initially, I see my role as one of facilitating the individual’s exploration of their thoughts, feelings, and beliefs. My integrative training then allows me to be fluid in my approach and draw on other schools of psychotherapy as our counselling journey progresses.

Working with clients from age twelve, I offer therapy on an individual basis. Accessing therapy for the first time, or with a new therapist, can be daunting. I invite clients and parents to request a short phone consultation to discuss the issues at hand and ask questions about me and how therapy works. The process of therapy is a journey which the client and therapist embark upon together, working towards the client's own goal and I believe the strength of the therapeutic relationship is at the core of the therapy.

I love to work with people who are struggling in relationship, whether it's personal, a workplace or family. Maybe you feel your needs are not being acknowledged or met in your relationship. Maybe you struggle to know what those needs are, or how to ask for them. I also love to help people who struggle to know and accept themselves. Perhaps you find it hard to like yourself, or to know what your desires or values are. Perhaps you are struggling with a manager or colleague at work, and don't know how to deal with it, maybe you don't feel appreciated or valued, and would like to be treated with respect.

It is impossible to tell you exactly what your therapy process will be like, as you are unique, with your own experience, strengths and difficulties. Good therapy will be tailored to you and your individual situation. That said, in all models of therapeutic work I will work with you to define your goals and to develop the steps you will take to achieve those goals in therapy. Your therapeutic process will not only focus on your current situation and experiences, but also on the internal patterns that may be contributing to how you are feeling.
