Services
Individual Counselling
One-to-one therapy sessions addressing anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Our integrative approach combines multiple therapeutic models to create tailored treatment plans. Clients benefit from a safe, confidential space to explore personal challenges with a BACP-registered professional. Sessions focus on building self-awareness and developing coping strategies through evidence-based techniques.
Mindfulness Courses
Structured MBSR and MBCT programmes developed at Oxford University. These evidence-based courses teach stress reduction techniques through meditation and present-moment awareness. Participants learn to manage anxiety and prevent depressive relapse while improving overall emotional wellbeing through weekly group sessions and home practice.
Bereavement Support
Specialist support for processing loss and navigating the grieving process. Drawing on NHS dementia service experience, sessions provide a safe space to explore complex emotions following significant loss. Therapeutic approach focuses on creating meaningful rituals while respecting individual grieving timelines and cultural considerations.
Couples Therapy
Partnership-focused sessions addressing communication breakdowns and relationship stressors. Our approach helps couples rebuild trust and improve emotional connection through structured dialogue techniques. Sessions address both immediate conflicts and underlying patterns affecting relationship satisfaction using integrative therapeutic frameworks.
Anxiety Clinic
Specialist anxiety management combining CBT techniques with mindfulness-based interventions. Treatment addresses panic attacks, social anxiety, and OCD through graduated exposure and cognitive restructuring. Clients develop practical tools for managing symptoms while exploring underlying causes in a supportive therapeutic environment.
