Online Counselling and Therapy Across the UK
Online Counselling, Psychotherapy and Coaching
Online therapy is a really effective therapeutic option for those with particular accessibility needs, those that prefer the comfort of their own surroundings, cannot leave their house for personal or practical reasons and also for those wanting therapy with me but live too far away.
I use Zoom which is 100% secure and confidential.
You will need access to a computer or smart phone and a good internet connection in a private space where we will not be disturbed for your hour of therapy.
Don't worry if home isn't quiet or private enough.
I'm happy to Zoom from your car, your office, your mates house, a park bench or country lane or anywhere else that's private and quiet with a decently reliable internet or phone signal!
Counselling and Psychotherapy
CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy)
CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy)
Previous life experiences can damage your perception of yourself, which can affect your attitudes, emotions and your ability to deal with certain situations.
My approach focuses on you as a whole.
It encourages you to think about your own feelings and take responsibility for you thoughts and actions.
I help you process and heal from trauma, hurt, pain, loss and negative experiences.
The emphasis is on working through what's bothering you at your own pace.
We steadily build your self-awareness, add phases of self-development and also eventually look at what you'd like from your future.
Counselling and Psychotherapy include a range of talking therapies and interventions used to treat emotional problems and mental health issues.

CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy)
CBT aims to help you change the way you think (cognitive) and what you do (behaviour).
Rather than looking at past causes, CBT focuses on current problems and practical solutions to help you feel better now.
The way we think about situations affects the way we feel and behave. If we view a situation negatively, we may experience negative emotions and feelings which lead us to behave in an unhelpful way.
I will help you identify and challenge any negative thinking so you can deal with situations better and behave in a more positive way
CBT can be helpful for depression, anxiety, stress and managing long term conditions.
TA (Transactional Analysis)
CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy)
Creative Therapies & Techniques
TA can help you understand how you interact with others. We also look at how your beliefs and the way you interpret the world can create recurrent and problematic patterns of behaviour.
I will work with you to help those patterns change.
Throughout therapy, we work directly on problem-solving behaviours, whilst helping to develop day-to-day tools for finding constructive, creative solutions. The ultimate goal is to ensure clients regain absolute autonomy over their lives.
Transactional analysis is a comprehensive approach which incorporates aspects of humanistic, cognitive-behavioural and psychodynamic therapy.

Creative Therapies & Techniques
Creative therapy includes a wide range of techniques which can help you find a way of expressing yourself beyond words or traditional talking therapies.
Often creative works makes the most powerful impact because it works with feelings we just can't or don't have words for.
The right interventions can tap deeply into the subconscious and can bring about profound light bulb moments and incredible insight.
It can include visual arts therapy, writing, sand play, music therapy, narrative work, journalling, figurines, metaphor and imagery.
We may use different approaches together at different times to suit your needs.
