My desire is to offer the clients a supportive and safe environment that is confidential and free of judgment. I am working with both adults and adolescents enabling them to grow their self-esteem, self-confidence, and empowering them to believe in their own unique purpose.

When something in your life is not how you'd like it to be, or when you're looking for help and support for something that you're going through; perhaps a life event, a particular concern or maybe problems with relationships, at home, in school or at work. Maybe you are experiencing feelings of anxiety, frustration, fear, sadness or other emotions. Stress can be a part of this. Counselling can help you to better understand what might be going on for you, and to find ways to effectively manage feelings, thoughts or worries. My experience is that clients come to counselling because they want something in their life to be different.

With my core training grounded in a Humanistic approach I aim to create a warm, safe and non-judgmental environment for my clients. I believe that the power of the empathic therapeutic relationship can enable respectful exploration and curiosity of core issues, in a gentle yet challenging way, which can ultimately help bring about self-understanding, inner healing, change and growth for my clients. Working with the individual needs of each client within the therapeutic space I draw on knowledge and skills from a range of therapies.

I speak English, German, and Farci(Persian). During the therapeutic relationship with my client, the values, interests, and needs of my clients come into consideration empathetically. Non-judgemental therapy allows the ease of healing sound and safe.I use different methods to deal with trauma, as an old wound causes disturbances to the present time that may lead to the avoidance in the future instead of dealing with the issues. The three prongs; the past, present and future, is a problem that therapist must have eye on. The therapist deals with various issues where the client stagnated; a disturbance that affects clients' life.

You as my client matter to me. Your well being is very essential. Therefore, the use of skills and methods in therapy would assist you to enrich your goal.On your therapy journey, you discover your abilities, interests alongside your needs to target your aims and develop your unique individuality.

Do you have difficulties in maintaining attention, managing impulsiveness, and organizing tasks? Do you find it hard to sit still, acting without thinking, interrupting others? Or perhaps struggle with time management, following through on tasks, and maintaining focus? As a psychologist specializing in ADHD, I understand the unique challenges that you face and I'm here to help you navigate through them. I also specialize in men's well-being, which encompasses a wide range of topics, including but not limited to stress management, work-life balance, relationship dynamics, substance abuse, self-esteem, and emotional health.

I decided to train as a professional counsellor after my own experience with depression. It's such an incredible privilege to be able to use my own life experiences to help others. Whichever way we work together, the relationship between us will be what enables the changes you wish to make and I will consistently offer empathy and support, no matter how difficult some of the things we deal with may be, and to be honest and upfront with you. This will help to nurture an environment in which you feel truly heard, valued, and empowered to make positive change.

Hello, my name is Ciara McKeown, Art Therapist and owner of Unfurl Art Therapy. I am a fully qualified therapist with an MSc in Creative Arts Psychotherapy and BA (Hons) in Integrative Counselling and Art Therapy. Clients come to me who are grieving, feeling depressed, anxious, or don't know what they feel but know something isn't right. I also work with clients entangled in toxic relationships, particularly Narcissistic Abuse. Often these clients feel stuck. We work together to get them unstuck!

“The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction, not a destination.” Carl Rogers. The world we live in is constantly challenging, particularly if we are already feeling stressed or anxious. This stress can lead to lasting feelings of sadness, anxiety or depression. But this does not have to be the case. We all have within us the ability to live a more fulfilled and happier life. A good therapist helps realise this potential by facilitating self-discovery and acceptance and using this for emotional growth.

In my practice I work with a broad range of clients including young people (16-25), neurodiverse, LGBTQ+ and GSRD identifying clients. I believe that each and every one of my clients has a unique experience and so each therapy begins and ends differently. I often help clients to address issues around sexuality and gender as well as working with survivors of domestic and sexual violence.

In a time when we seem to have more material possessions, money and social connections than ever, there are a lot of people struggling with anxiety, depression, isolation and a sense of emptiness with the thoughts and feelings that they are the only ones feeling this way. We look around and see other people who seem to have it all together and then feel worse about ourselves without any idea about how we can change our situation. If you feel stuck and can relate to any of the above please let me encourage you to maybe put yourself first. It can be very helpful to chat with someone about what's going on and how to make changes needed

Clients come to counselling with a broad range of issues, and as unique individuals the approach best suited varies. Taking an integrative (Eclectic) approach allows for the best approach to be utilised. I am an Accredited IACP therapist with a BA (Hons) in Counselling & Psychotherapy, Certificate in Child & Adolescent Counselling & Psychotherapy. MBS Management & Organisational Studies. BA (Hons) International Business. I have many years experience and also continually undertaking professional development in key areas pertinent to Counselling.

Sometimes in life you need a place to explore the difficulties that arise. Either behaviours, feelings or emotions. At times you need to be listened to confidentially and without judgement. What troubles our minds can have such a negative impact on the quality of our lives. Psychological troubles come in many forms, relational both to oneself and to others, grief and loss, behavioural problems from anxiety or depression and rage or sometimes it's hard to tell exactly what it is, only a sense that things are not right. The first brave step to take is to share that difficulty.

If things aren't as good on the inside as they appear to be on the outside, if you look after everyone but yourself, if communication within your relationships has become strained, then counselling may be for you! If you're feeling anxious, stuck or lost in life then let me provide a safe non judgemental empathetic space where you can truly be yourself, and together we can work through those things that just AREN'T working in your life right now! I use a collaborative therapeutic approach which is influenced by Psychodynamics, CBT, Gestahlt, tailored to each individual client!
