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.

I am a Systemic Psychotherapist working with individuals, couples and families. Many of my clients are males between the ages of 25-55 from all walks of life. I am near the City of London financial sector and many of my clients present with work related stress, anxiety and depression. I have also worked with OCD, bi-polar disorder; panic attacks; and eating disorders as well as PTSD and complex trauma and how this can manifest in people’s lives, particularly in relying on substances like alcohol & drugs. I have quite a lot of experience of dealing with suicidal ideation and know that life can quickly feel quite overwhelming.

Would you like someone to really listen to you – who will give you time and space to express how you are, or to explore what might be wrong, without making judgements about you? I’ve been working in this field for over twenty years and can offer a range of approaches for tackling issues such as depression, anxiety, addictions and relationship problems. You are welcome to text, email or call me for a free initial chat. See my website for more details about me, how I work and how to make contact.

I work as part of a team of online specialist clinical psychologists. We use technology to maximise each session you have and keep you well. We divide ourselves up into areas of expertise – so if you’ve experienced something traumatic, for example, the best professional care you can receive is from a clinical psychologist who has chosen to specialise in trauma. My expertise is OCD, BDD and obsessional and anxiety difficulties, such as perfectionism.

Mr. Daniel Harris
Hello, my name is Daniel, I specialise in helping clients to navigate their way through life’s difficult moments. It is my role to create a healing, trusting and non-judgemental therapeutic relationship to facilitate your growth. As a member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP) I work to a high professional standard which alongside my life experiences ensures that I bring a level of openness and understanding to each client.

My aim is to empower you to use the therapeutic benefits of the great outdoors and to introduce you to practical strategies that help build a healthier mindset through Coaching Psychology. Sessions usually take place on the beautiful Cannock Chase, 2684 hectares of coniferous and broadleaf woodlands, in Staffordshire, England. I typically use principles from compassion focussed therapy, acceptance commitment therapy, solution focussed therapy and mindfulness. I offer a free telephone appointment to find out if this is the right approach for you.

I work using the Person-Centred (or Humanistic) approach, which is often referred to as the “how does that make you feel?” style of therapy. However, a more accurate description would be I focus on building a supportive relationship where we can view the world from your perspective, and we work together to make changes that you want. I believe that you are the expert in your own life and have the ability to solve your own problems but recognise that sometimes an “outsiders” support and perspective can be helpful. I aim to create a non-judgmental safe space to explore your world using empathy, honesty and unconditional positive regard helping us to work through the thoughts, feelings and issues that are impacting you.

Mr. Shane Sneyd
I offer counselling and psychotherapy to individuals (young people/adults) who may have identified specific personal difficulties and/or want to understand more about themselves in order to allow choice, change, and movement in life.
I work with a number of issues, ranging from anxiety, depression, OCD, relationship problems, and personality disorders. My aim is to work with the person rather than the diagnosis.

Mark Sunderland

As your counsellor, I can help you by listening to whatever is troubling you the aim being to help you explore and understand the events or situation that have prompted you to seek help. I can help you explore any kind of problem, whether it is trying to make sense of a past life experience that is causing you some emotional pain, or a current problem that you are finding hard to cope with on your own, or perhaps a fear of something in the future which is holding you back. I strongly believe that having a safe space to talk, without judgment, can help you get clarity and empower you to move forward and make clear decisions about what you can do to improve your life.
