Therapists in United Kingdom

Charlie Cornelius

An increasing number of people come to a place in life when they want to talk to someone about their challenges. I am practised at providing a space in which clients feel able to start to share. This sharing can be a relief for clients and the start of a rewarding yet challenging journey.
I am trained in both the person-centred and psychodynamic approaches. The person-centred approach can help with getting in touch with the hidden parts of ourselves to have a positive influence on our life. The psychodynamic part can provide insights.
As well as studying counselling and psychotherapy at the University of Edinburgh, I have studied organisational development and nonviolent communication (NVC).

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure why you react the way you do? I can help you understand your emotions, break old patterns, and feel more grounded, confident, and in control.
I’m a qualified Humanistic counsellor working in Tring, Leighton Buzzard, and online. I help adults untangle their emotions, understand their patterns, and move toward a life that feels more authentic, grounded, and fulfilling.
In practice, this might mean I reflect what you’ve told me so you can hear it in a new way, ask questions to clarify your thoughts, or offer a different perspective for you to consider. Sometimes we might work through compassion exercises, thought experiments, or mindfulness tools like breathing and grounding techniques. Whatever helps.

I am near the City of London financial sector and many of my clients present with work related stress, anxiety and depression.

If this sounds familiar, I can help. I offer a safe, confidential space to talk things through and understand yourself better. I came to this work because I believe people don’t need to stay stuck in the situations they find themselves in.

Colin Thomson
Hello, my name is Colin and I am a fully-qualified Person-Centred Counsellor. In addition to my professional counselling qualifications I also bring many years of life experience to my practice, which include my role as a listening volunteer and mentor with The Samaritans Organisation in Glasgow, supporting people who expressed anxiety, depression and suicidal thoughts. Our mental health can be impacted by many things and counselling is often sought when we are at our lowest ebb, and it can take great courage to admit that you are struggling to cope. Talking to a counsellor who won’t judge or force opinions upon you can help you find clarity and perspective and lead to positive change.

Tristan Warr
Tristan Warr
Hello! I’m Tristan Warr, a qualified male counsellor with a passion for walking beside others through life’s challenges and helping them discover new perspectives along the way.
I work in an integrative way, which means I use different types of therapy depending on what feels right for you. Kind of like picking the right tool for the job. I believe there’s no one-size-fits-all in counselling.
I offer in-person sessions, in my counselling room in Yeovil, or outdoor walking, and online therapy for individual adults. I offer a free online consultation, so you can get a feel for how this might work for you.

Hello, I am an integrative therapist, working with a variety of men’s issues; anything from anger management through depression and anxiety, to self-esteem and childhood issues. It can be hard for us chaps to reach out sometimes, and understanding that, I work with patience and compassion to draw the issues from you at your own working pace.
Therapy can be an exciting and rewarding process. It can also be hard, and challenging. I am here to help you to become the best version of yourself.
