Find a Therapist

Gareth King

We do what we do in life because of how we feel. When we’re happy, we think happy thoughts and feel buoyant, and are resilient and flexible. When we feel bad inside, we may become angry and resentful, or collapse in on ourselves, or worry about everything. Changing how we feel is not an easy task, because it is a manifestation of so many fundamental inner processes: how we talk to ourselves in our head, how we process and make sense of what happens to us, and how we feel about ourselves. Change, thus, comes from within; from delving into who we fundamentally are, facing what’s inside, and learning to relate to ourselves in a new way, so that we actually enjoy being alive. I am here to help you with that journey.

Miss Hope Peckover

Coming to therapy can be a really tricky first step; perhaps you’ve now realised you are struggling, or you know you are capable of more and want to make the most out of life. There can be loads of reasons for coming to therapy. My aim in my therapy room is to help and guide you in the direction you want to go.

Gavin Demurger-Jones

I work with a vast array of people. I’ve helped people to deal with relationships breaking down, the abuse they’ve suffered in the past, existential issues about the future, dealing with anger, processing grief, understanding sexuality, understanding emotions, dealing with depression as well as understanding their anxiety. I’m trained as an integrative counsellor and this means that I can adjust my approach to suit each person that I work with. To find out more about me, the way I work and to read some testimonials please look at my website.

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.

Iulian Chear

My work delves into issues such as shame, pressure to conform and the inability to connect with yourself, your body, and your emotions. I usually work with men at the intersection between race, neurodiversity, social class and faith who may feel that they are different, unable to be themselves, or are dissatisfied with themselves or with their lives.

I am quite open and easy to talk to, and I think I do well with men who are nervous about coming to therapy, who find it hard to open up or who have unusual issues that cause them shame.

I am a UKCP-accredited psychotherapist with a first degree in psychology and a doctorate in existential psychotherapy.

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.

Suzy Thacker

I am a person-centered counselor with over 10 years experience in public and corporate sectors as well as my own counselling practice.
I work together with clients in exploring what is going on for them currently (or has done in the past) in order to help them gain clarity and feel better in themselves as a result.

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.

Kirsty Murray

We all struggle at times and you don’t have to do it alone. I aim to provide a welcoming, non-judgemental, confidential space to explore whatever is impacting you. I am an integrative psychotherapist which means I am able to be flexible in my approach and tailor it to the person I am working with and the issues that they are currently facing. I offer face to face or remote sessions in Nottingham City Centre.

Robert Hack

I offer a warm, safe and confidential space for you to share your story and explore what’s happening for you. Whether that’s something that’s happening now, or something that happened in the past, I’m here to listen and to help you make sense of your experiences.

I work with all types of difficulties, including depression, anxiety, bereavement, trauma, abuse, and relationship issues, but I have particular experience of working with young adults, people impacted by suicide, and people recovering from a difficult childhood.

I hold a master’s degree in counselling and psychotherapy and have previously researched men’s mental health. I offer in-person sessions here in Bebington and online via Doxy.

Abby Evans

Are you feeling lost or unsure how to move forward? If you’re stuck or struggling to make sense of things, you don’t have to do it alone. I offer confidential, gentle and flexible counselling, shaped by experience in healthcare and education. Centred around what feels right for you. Reach out to me when you’re ready and we can have an initial conversation.

Rachel Hewitt-Hall

Mr. Christopher Vincent

I offer a conversational style of therapy, both listening to the story brought to the session, and offering information connected to research and my experience to help you make connections to the issues that concern and affect you. My goal is to help you achieve your goals through gaining clarity about your situation, learning more about yourself and experiencing more fulfilment and happiness in your relationships, personal or otherwise.
