Find your therapist

I’ve been counselling since 1989, and since then have been inspired by the resilience, bravery and sensitivity of the many adults, young people, families and couples I have worked with. I have extensive experience of working with sexual abuse and trauma, parenting and attachment difficulties, identity and relationship issues, depression and anxiety, bereavement and loss. I am committed to collaborating with you to find the resilient, hopeful part of yourself that becomes expert in managing your challenges and is motivated by the smallest signs of progress towards your preferred future.
I originally qualified as a Person-Centred counsellor, and have completed additional training in Transactional Analysis, Systemic Family Therapy, Attachment Based Therapy and Online Counselling. In 2007 I qualified as a Solution Focused Practitioner and this is how I prefer to work now. I have found the Solution Focused approach to be extremely effective in my personal life as well as in my work with clients.

My approach is emotion and body focused, working to help bring awareness to what is happening for you on a somatic (body) level. We will also be exploring your past and how that has shaped you today. My aim is create a safe non-judgemental space where you get to explore your own thoughts and dilemmas, bringing awareness to your feelings and the thoughts that drive them.

Registered with the National Council of Integrative Psychotherapists, my therapeutic approach is experiential and incorporates a range of styles and perspectives including Transpersonal Psychology, Family Systems Theory, Person Centered and AEDP (Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy).

If this sounds like the therapeutic approach for you, I would love to help!! If you are interested but it sounds scary that’s ok too. I am here to help build a sense of safety for you and we can work together at your pace.

Note: Available to book here Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday’s only.

Also, I am insured to work online internationally.

• Anxiety • Self Esteem • Depression • Relationship Difficulties
• Trauma • Burnout • Loneliness and more…

Do you feel you put the needs of others ahead of your own, feeling overwhelmed, guilty or unable to say no to others?
Maybe it has gotten to the point where you don’t even consider yourself, putting everyone else’s needs before your own. I can help you to grow in confidence, speak your mind and establish healthy boundaries.

Do you feel anxious and worry a lot?
Perhaps you feel suffocated, or berate yourself and wish life didn’t have to be so hard, or maybe worry about what everyone else thinks about you. I can help you understand where all these thoughts and feelings are coming from so you can begin to have more peace in your life.

Do you feel stuck in the same old patterns?
Together, we can figure out why you feel this way, uncover the roots of your struggle and learn how to do things differently.

Do you feel like you need a partner to feel validated and loved?
You might even dread being alone or fear that they might leave you, to the point where you feel like you’re losing yourself. With my support, with or without a partner, you can be content or confident in yourself.

Does any of the above sound like you? If so and my approach sounds like something you are interested in, I would love to help.

I am able to to provide home visits following a strict risk assessment and also hold sessions outdoors for those who are apprehensive about being in the traditional therapy room

I have been in mental health for over twenty years and my work as a psychotherapist is where I belong: it is a vocation.  I bring to the work not only the solid base of knowledge gained in trainings; but also the insights and inspiration drawn from the privilege of working with others’ stories; the wisdom that comes from living through my own real challenges in life and in ageing; and the warmth, empathy and perspective with which I build good strong therapeutic relationships.  Trust is, ultimately, what we need to be able to be who we really are; I offer the safest possible space to allow you to trust me.

I offer reduced fees for people in financial difficulties. A reduced price between £45-55 will be discussed during our trial session.

Hi there. If you’re looking for help and support online or via the phone you have definitely come to the right place.

I am an experienced NCS Accredited  Counsellor, NLP Coach and Clinical Hypnotherapist.  I offer totally secure sessions either using Skype, WhatsApp, Zoom, FaceTime or Telephone and I’m fully trained, DBS checked and insured.

I work in an integrative person-centred way so as well as Talking Therapy (Counselling) I also use NLP coaching, Mindfulness or CBT techniques where appropriate to offer you a very effective tailor-made package just for you and dependant upon what you’d like to work on.  This will leave you with enhanced self-awareness, personal growth and resilience as well as making the changes you are looking for. Moving forward, you learn skills and tools so that you cope better and manage life challenges with increasing ease, building your resilience all the time.

Many of my client’s have problems with anxiety either foremost or underpinning their worries. Depression is another key issue and both Anxiety and Depression can be mixed together. Other clients have unhelpful habits, life issues, phobias or fears, relationship or gender worries they want to deal with, or physical issues such as pain or illness.

Here’s to your much brighter future.  I look forward to working with you.

Carmen

I am a qualified Psychotherapist counsellor who practices with a Humanistic & Integrative approach. This means I will focus on the needs of you, using techniques from different approaches.

Each and everyone of us are unique and therefore I do not feel I am the expert of you and can tell you what to do, my belief is to support and guide you, with my experience to help you work through your concerns. So that you can start to feel more complete within yourself.

The first step in starting counselling can feel overwhelming, bringing past thoughts to the surface and stirring up feelings of being judged, neglect, not trusting the other. My attitude is to value you for doing the best you can. It can be tough for us at times. Let us accept us for who and how we are right now at this moment.

I have personal experiences around being judged, mental health as well as trauma, so please do not feel you are alone. Once we allow ourselves to sit with the uncomfortable feelings, we will begin to flourish.

Welcome to my counselling service…

“I use hypnosis, a safe and non-addictive complementary therapy, to help people to make positive, long-term changes.”
​
“When you learn strategies that help you to relax, focus and feel in control, life can change immeasurably.”

My story

Thats where I can support you! I am Daniel, a Clinical Solution Focused Hypnotherapist based in North Bristol.

“As a child I suffered with sight and hearing problems, often finding that some people struggled to understand and accept the difficulties I was facing. As is often the case, this affected me mentally leading to low self-confidence and anxiety issues. Without proper treatment, my mental health problems followed me through university and the first stages of my career. Since then, I’ve suffered numerous medical issues from osteoporosis to brain seizures and chronic pain – I even had to spend a six-month stint in a wheelchair and two months in hospital recuperating after an accident.

I’m not telling you this for sympathy, what I’m trying to say is, “I get it”. I understand how hard it is. The thing I’ve learned through all of this is the importance of not giving up, of finding the positives and focusing on the future. I believe whole-heartedly in the impact that solution focused hypnotherapy can have on the psychological effects of a chronic physical condition. If you feel you’re ready for something to change, then I believe I’m the person to help make that possible. I’d love to give you the tools and techniques to get you back in control and living your best life.”

I offer in person one2one private consultations at The Arches Therapy Rooms, 1st Floor Clinic, 198 Cheltenham Road, Montpellier, Bristol BS6 5QZ.  If you would prefer an online consultation instead from the comfort of your home? Thats total fine! Find out more about how my hypnotherapy services could help you move forward with positivity by giving me a call or email me.

Trained & Accredited with Cruse Bereavement Care as a Bereavement Counsellor

Experience working for Staffordshire NHS Trust as part of the Staff Support & Counselling Service, working with personal and work related issues

I have a BA (Hons) in Counselling & Psychotherapy. I have been practicing Person-Centred Experiential Therapy for over 3 years and I have most recently become qualified to practice clinical EFT tapping. I am currently working towards certification with ACEP (Association of Comprehensive Energy Psychology). As well as being a member with ACEP, I am also a member with the BACP so I adhere to both parties ethical framework.

As mentioned above, in my therapeutic practice I use both EFT and PCE psychotherapy. I find PCE very useful for empathic understanding as this then translates into effective EFT. By understanding the client just as if I had experienced their distress myself, I can help to formulate efficient specificity in set-up language and reminder phrases. This helps to quicken the process as the SUDS (subjective units of distress) go down much quicker, allowing for a cognitive shift meaning we can move on to the next part of my clients’ story.

I have used EFT for a number of different presenting issues such as; limiting beliefs, anxiety, depression, peak performance, childhood trauma, bereavement, PTSD, shame, guilt, addiction. The efficacy of EFT combined with PCE therapy astonishes me every time! The two therapeutic techniques work in harmony with one another and I have found that I am now able to use both with great success.

My style in session is not dissimilar to how I am in my every day life. You will be met with a warm energy every time we work together. I am caring, compassionate, a great listener and I also have a professional but fun side. More than this, I hope to be part of your journey to becoming your authentic self by being the light that guides you in your struggle.

You haven’t come this far, to come this far.

I run quite a bespoke service, because everyone has vastly different requirements that constantly change regardless of the current climate. However there must be some sort of therapeutic framework so that change, growth and all-round wellbeing has a place to emerge from. The therapeutic relationship will be one built on trust, this often taken time to be felt. But also required a commitment to each other, just like any other normal relationship. Therefor I try to explain the importance of “showing up” to therapy, both physically and metaphorically, so that your investment in self actually works.

A therapeutic environment can be quite a peculiar place to seek out and then find yourself in, however our world and all of our experiences we touch or run away from can be just that, weird! I invite you to pause and reflect upon the route of where the weirdness come from. Perhaps just picking up the phone, pressing send, or even uttering the words “I need help” feels impossible.

In therapy, bring all of your baggage, losses, failures, good bits and the unattractive parts including four letter words. This being said, if you are feeling reserved, unable to find words that hide behind feelings or actions, then we work slowly, unpacking one bag at a time, at a speed and style that is correct for you.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Best wishes,

Gordon.

I have limited evening and daytime sessions available please get in touch for more information.

There can be a lot of uncertainty going on for us in life as it is, but due to all the other events going around us at the moment this can be increased making it harder to cope with big and small things.

I love being able to support other people! We all struggle with things, we all face difficulties and challenges and no matter how big or small counselling can be a safe space to talk more about anything that is troubling you.

​​I will provide you with emotional support by offering you a warm, empathic, confidential and non-judgemental space. By offering you a different perspective it can allow you to see problems and issues in a way that you may not have noticed before. In this space you can start to gain awareness and acceptance from which healing and change can begin.

I am a humanistic therapeutic counsellor and I offer long and short-term therapy.

I have always been passionate about helping people and helping them reconnect with their true self. I decided to change my career and become a counsellor after my positive experience in therapy as a client. I believe that self-awareness is the foundation for personal growth and positive life changes.

Welcome to my profile. My number one aim, passion and priority is to make a positive difference to your life. For me, counselling is a process that supports, empowers and facilitates well-being. A space that you can trust with no judgement or criticism for you to feel free to express and explore what’s important to you. I offer an empathic nurturing relationship so that you are supported to achieve your goals, whether it would be personal development and self-actualisation or to overcome distressing/traumatic events, thoughts or feelings. Attentively, I actively listen to you so I understand deeply, you and your lived experiences. I highly value your internal natural tendency for growth and development which is important to help resolve many issues such as depression and anxiety. Ultimately, I work in a way that is tailored and bespoke to you. Therefore my practice highly respects and welcomes your autonomy.

I suffer from a neuromuscular condition called SMA type II. I believe that my disability has allowed me to connect deeply with clients who have experienced injustice, judgment, and oppression in their lives. Also, to empathise with clients who have experience of being subjected to negative attitudes or stereotyping from others or society.

The most important thing to me is that you are comfortable when you are talking about personal and sensitive topics so that you are able to share without any felt consequences or regrets. If you feel that you would like to contact me to arrange a session then please do not hesitate to get in touch and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
