Richard Lovell

Hello, my name is Richard, thank you for looking at my profile. I am a qualified integrative counsellor trained in schools such as Person Centered, Psychodynamic, CBT, Solution Focused Therapy and Transactional Analysis to create a blended and bespoke model for my clients.

I understand that each individual’s journey is unique and therapy should reflect this. I have had specific training to work with male mental health and the unique challenges that face in modern society, such as work or social stress, issues around depression, anger and anxiety, relationship and dating issues, breakups and parenting challenges. I aim to create a warm, non judgmental environment where we can identify what troubles you and how to move forward in life.

Mrs. Lis Starkey-Smets

Hello, I’m an integrative psychotherapist and counsellor, working with individuals in Stratford upon Avon, Warwickshire, and online.
I have experience supporting people experiencing a wide range of emotional difficulties and adapt my approach to suit each individual and their circumstances/needs. I have a particular interest in working with parents, both during the postnatal period and beyond. Please do take a look at my website to learn a bit more about what it might be like to work with me, and feel free to get in touch via email or telephone if you have any questions.

Andy Solomon-Osborne

I have been working in the field of mental health for 22 years, providing treatment and support for a range of conditions.
I specialise in helping men navigate life’s challenges and I’m passionate about supporting you to access the care you need, giving you the time and space to explore your issues—both in short-term and long-term therapy.
As a current member of MENTELL men groups, I have run or participated in numerous men’s groups over the past two decades, so I truly understand the challenges you may be facing.
I offer a free 15-minute telephone consultation to answer any questions you may have and to ensure that I am the right fit for you.

Roger Harrison

I am a male counsellor and psychotherapist, working online and in-person for people living in Manchester (UK) and surrounding areas. I focus on helping people overcome drug addiction and alcohol addiction or related problems, compulsive sexual behaviours and use of pornography. Other issues I help men with include depression and anxiety, abuse and trauma, and sexuality.

Simon Cook

I will be real with you. No nonsense just a down to earth approach.

I will gently challenge to see what’s REALLY going on.

I don’t just ask ‘how does that feel?’ I help you explore issues with the purpose of achieving change and a better future.

Dr. Anna Chisholm

As a BPS Chartered Health Psychologist I support people with health-related behavioural change. This might be supporting people with making a healthy lifestyle change, or living with a long-term condition. I have worked with people living with a range of long-term health conditions including obesity, psoriasis, kidney disease and multiple sclerosis. Change topics have included but are not limited to, weight management, eating, physical activity, smoking, alcohol consumption, sleep, and stress management. I work with multiple health psychology theories and therapeutic approaches in an integrated way so that support is individualised and tailored to you and the issues you are facing.

Ben Rath

My training is in Transactional Analysis Counselling and Integrative Psychotherapy, and I have experience working with a wide range of individuals over the past five years. I aim to build a strong and supportive relationship with my clients, offering a safe space to explore whatever difficulties they may be experiencing, and utilising a flexible approach to be able to tailor the therapy to each individual’s needs. I believe strongly in the potentials of compassion, insight and self-awareness in helping people heal psychological wounds and make positive life changes.

Alice Jackson

In my approach, I place importance on exploring the root cause of the problem and provide an affirming therapeutic space to facilitate change. A therapeutic relationship that is accepting and non-judgmental makes space for growth and healing. Psychotherapy and counselling invites an exploration of challenging past experiences and focuses on processing the feelings we hold as a result of these experiences. At the heart of our work together we will seek to understand our emotions and work alongside them. As we work through the foundations of patterns, behaviours, and feelings in a safe and supported environment, we gain greater insight into ourselves, this is where we can make significant change.

Mr. Neil Jordan

I’m a Registered psychotherapist with the UKCP and have run my private practice full time for over 20 years. I am a Relational Psychotherapist so I work alongside my clients to explore issues that affect how they feel in their current lives and relationships as well as exploring the origins of these issues which sometimes stem from traumatic events in our developmental years. My goal is to help clients clarify what they want from life, explore what is holding them back and move through to deep and lasting change. I work with a wide range of presenting issues. Over the last 10 years I have worked with professional sportsmen and women and supported them through a range of issues which they encounter in their high profile, pressurised, daily lives.

As a man I appreciate how difficult it can be to speak about how we feel and I also know the benefits of taking this risk having had my own counselling and psychotherapy for many years.

Mark Allerton

Men sometimes carry their problems around, being strong on the outside, like a suit of armour. They leave the talking to others, often women. Your friends might be doing the same, but if you’re the one to admit it, you fear losing your credibility as a real man. There may also be an inner voice telling you to man up and not show vulnerability, but this can be part of the problem.

I think counselling can help men become better friends, partners, fathers and lovers. Learning to talk about yourself without fear of judgement can help your state of mind and relationships. When I work with men, they often find it’s a relief to finally let it all out. They feel lighter and open up to change, rather than closing down or “manning up” just to fit in.

I offer both remote and in-person appointments and have experience working with English-speaking clients who live outside the UK in all parts of the world.

Ms. Vauna Beauvais

Hi, I’m Vauna. You can see me for online sessions on Zoom, from 10 am to 10 pm (UK time) on weekdays. I specialise in psychotherapy for neurodivergent adults (autism, Aspergers, dyslexia, dyspraxia, dyscalculia, alexithymia, PDA). I also help people experiencing anxiety, low self-esteem, lack of motivation/performance, difficulties in relationships, workplace issues, and lack of direction. I can also provide coaching for executive functioning improvements (organisation, planning, achievements). You do not need to have a diagnosis of anything. If you feel that you’re different, that’s all that’s needed to know that you are in the right place, with a professional who can understand and work with you to get your life the way that you want it.

Mrs. Anna Gilmore

I work in a person centred way, respectfully acknowledging the pace and experience of each client and working in a way that suits their personal requirements.

I value each client for their individuality and welcome the opportunity to support anyone that is experiencing difficulties so that they no longer feel alone.
