Elaine Pashouros
Are you struggling with life generally or experiencing relationship issues? Maybe something has happened that has unsettled you or perhaps you are feeling anxious or lonely. Counselling can help you to gain an understanding into what is beneath your distress or unhappiness and provide the opportunity to explore and reflect upon your feelings, thoughts and behaviours. In doing so, your self-awareness will grow meaning greater choice for you to move forward.
Elaine is a qualified integrative counsellor and draws upon a range of theoretical models to meet individual needs. Her focus is to create a warm, safe and confidential space where you can make sense of what is bringing you to counselling: a space where you feel heard, valued and able to share your concerns at your own pace. The mind and body are connected; therefore, she works holistically to integrate the whole self.
She offers a free 15-minute telephone call to gauge if how she works suits your needs and for you to gain a sense of whether she may be the right counsellor for you. If you decide to take the next step, she can arrange an initial session. This will be for 50 minutes, either in-person at ETNA Community Centre or online via Zoom. The sessional costs are £55, concessional rates are available, working on a short-term and open-ended basis, dependant on the needs.
Elaine is Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). MBACP Registered Member 389027.

Stuart Nevill
People seek out a therapist for different reasons. When we meet, we will think together about your reasons. You might be suffering from anxiety or depression. You may have experienced a loss or trauma. You may feel your life has lost direction or meaning. Whatever has led to you to this point is welcome.
Psychotherapy is a confidential and non-judgmental space to talk about your thoughts and feelings, your difficulties and what matters to you most. It is an opportunity to understand yourself and develop new perspectives, to explore, experiment, be creative and ask yourself the important questions in life – with my support.
A bit more about me: I qualified as a Psychotherapist in 2003; before my therapy training, I was a Buddhist monk for 6 years; as well as practicing as a psychotherapist, I’ve worked in various charities for 25 years (including locally), and I have also been involved in school governance locally for a decade.
Email, text or call me for an exploratory phone call. We can also meet for an online assessment session (at no cost if you decide not to proceed with the therapy (otherwise the fee will the same as for subsequent session)).
Our psychotherapy sessions will take place in-person at ETNA Community Centre, (although I also work online, and at some other local consulting rooms).
I am accredited with the United Kingdom Council of Psychotherapists (UKCP), and I am also a Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP). You can read more about me on these directories, or on my website:

Mathew Gould BSc MBACP
Matthew is experienced working with evidence based psychological treatments for anxiety, depression, generalised anxiety, shyness, phobia, health anxiety, PTSD/trauma and OCD.
His style is warm and free of judgement and clients often benefit simply from having a confidential and understanding space to talk. If you would rather not revisit painful memories, and would like more practical advice and techniques, there is plenty of useful work that can be done.
Clients may have things to share that cannot be explained to a friend or family member and need a third perspective, or they may want to heal through understanding the origins of the problem.
Matthew is trained in CBT, ACT, DBT, Psychodynamic (Including DIT), and Psychoanalytic methods.
