Do you feel distressed, have difficulties with your mood, or your relationships? Would you like to make some changes to your life? Are you affected by things that have happened in the past? Do you find yourself repeating the same unhelpful patterns?

 

You could benefit from psychological therapy. 

 

Therapy involves having space to discuss your experiences with a trained therapist where you can develop an understanding of how and why your difficulties have developed and what keeps them going.  We can then use this understanding to help figure out ways of making helpful changes in your life.  Therapists are trained in a variety of different therapy styles and we can used these to create a bespoke type of therapy that can suit you.

​

Difficulties can include but are not limited to:

• Stress

• Low mood

• Impact of trauma

• Relationship breakdown

• Anxiety and phobias

• Low self esteem and confidence

• Grief

• Mood changes

 

The styles of therapy that are available include but are not limited to:

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy

• Compassion Focused Therapy

• Cognitive Analytic Therapy

• Schema Therapy

• Dialectical Behavioural Therapy

• Mindfulness

• Behavioural Activation

 

Sometimes people with mental health experiences can have a diagnosis, which is a label relating to what you are experiencing.  You do not have to have a diagnosis to be able to access or benefit from therapy, and having therapy will not lead to a diagnosis. Some of the common labels include:

​

Depression

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder OCD

Personality Disorder

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder PTSD

Bipolar Disorder

Psychosis
