I offer face to face psychotherapy from nearby practices in Lanchester and Rowlands Gill, supporting adults with anxiety, depression, work stress, and relationship difficulties.
Counselling near Stanley
Many clients from Stanley choose to attend counselling just outside the town, where sessions feel quieter and more contained.

For many people, that small separation helps therapy feel more effective.

How therapy works
Working at your pace
Therapy is collaborative and respectful of where you are.
We focus on making sense of emotional patterns, exploring how past experiences influence the present, and finding ways to respond differently when things feel overwhelming.
Some people attend for a short period.
Others stay longer.
Both are valid.
