Something's not right and you want answers, a strategy; to heal, to overcome, process or grow. Maybe it feels embarrassing and you don’t want to make a big deal out of it, or you feel stuck and unsure of what to do. It's ok. You have come to the right place. I'm a psychologist, in a part-time NHS complex mental health service. I'm also a dating and relationship specialist helping people work through all aspects of romance and intimacy, including friendships and family dynamics. Relationship, dating, psychosexual issues, life crisis, depression, anxiety, panic, stress, overwhelm, trauma, OCD, PTSD, low self esteem, not sure? It's ok.

It’s not unusual to have feelings that weigh us down and reach a stage of great distress and hopelessness. Whether you feel you are in crisis or just want to get to grips with thoughts and feelings that may be disturbing you, I can help. You might feel anxiety, depression, anger or shame. You might be having relationship problems or going through big changes in your life like the loss of a loved one or a job that have a big impact on you and you need help to cope with. Or there may be something inside you that you have lived with for some time and that gets in the way and prevents you from leading a fuller and happier life.

The constant nagging of “what if”, “why?” or “if only”; knots in your stomach, breath catching in the throat, unable to focus, unable to sleep, feeling like something bad is going to happen any time? Anxiety and depression limit and impact every aspect of your life, leaving you constantly scared and tired. Even when you know that there is nothing to fear, or that the trauma is in the past, this knowledge does not help. This is because our brains have evolved for survival, not for happiness. This means that our brain does not discriminate between real and imaginary dangers; habitually overreacting and overwhelming, stealing hope.

A therapeutic space can give us the understanding and confidence we need to make positive changes in our life. Expressing unspoken thoughts and feelings is an opportunity to heal, walk light and recover a feeling of direction. It gives us perspective and open our minds to explore healthier ways of relating to ourselves. My name is Alvaro, I'm a trauma informed Psychologist with more than 10 years of experience.

Hello, I'm Charlene. I am an experienced counsellor offering sessions in-person or online to adults. I don’t know about you, but I think it takes a lot of courage to admit to ourselves that we need a bit of support. As we go about our daily lives getting through the best we can, we may notice ourselves struggling to keep our head above water, or feelings of anxiety and depression emerge. You may be dealing with relationship difficulties or unhelpful life patterns. Perhaps you’re feeling lost and wondering ‘how did I get here?’ This can be an unsettling place to be. I hope to support you in whatever situation you find yourself in.

I understand that this may cause some anxiety, because how do you know I’m the right counsellor/therapist for you.
Hi, I’m a relationship and trauma informed therapist. Your life may feel like a ‘hot mess’ at the moment, you may have tried google, read self help books or watched mental health videos. You have realised that nothing is helping. This may feel ‘alien’ to you, perhaps you’re the person that people call ‘strong’, no-one can comprehend that you may be struggling. So imagine, that you are not overthinking, irritable and frustrated with yourself or others. In therapy, you will have time ‘for you’, to learn to manage your symptoms and to ultimately heal. As you continue to heal, you will start to implement changes to make your life better

Do you find yourself struggling to manage anxiety or depression related difficulties? Perhaps you are aware that you need to make changes but are unsure of where to start? We all get stressed from time to time - in fact research shows that in England, in any given week, 1 in 6 people report experiencing a common mental health problem such as anxiety or depression. Many people report that they worry constantly or much of the time, leading to sleepless nights and unhealthy coping habits. Sometimes feelings of anxiety and low mood may be related to traumatic, distressing experiences from the past.

Perhaps current circumstances have proved overwhelming and they need support guiding themselves back. Or old behavioral patterns have re-emerged and this is proving distressing. By holding space for you to reflect, we can work through your issues together.

I have experience working with depression, grief, anxiety, panic, ADHD, OCD, gender identity, immigration, and relationship conflicts, among other areas.
The therapy hour is a time for someone to simply be who they are, an experience that is surprisingly difficult to have in a world filled with harsh demands, expectations, and at times tragedies. Often the people I work with have found themselves stuck in difficult patterns of feeling, thought and behavior that they find to be out of their control, preventing this experience of simply being themselves. We use words like anxiety, depression, and disorder to describe these patterns. As a therapist my aim is to help introduce a greater sense of freedom and control over one’s own life within a space where moral judgments have no place.
