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 20-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.
Elaine is a registered and accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). MBACP registered member 389027 MBACP (accredited).

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.

Steve Reffould
Steve is an experienced psychotherapist who offers a warm, confidential and safe environment for you to explore what is troubling you. Although counselling is not about curing or fixing a person, it is a space that you can talk, be heard and equip yourself to move towards a more fulfilling life.
Counselling can offer help and support to people experiencing a variety of problems. You may feel helpless, lost, hopeless, alone and confused. Perhaps you have experienced the loss of a relationship or a loved one or a traumatic event(s). There are times we may feel unable to identify the reason we feel a certain way, some of these can be anxiety, stress or fluctuating mood or an inability to manage life when those around you appear to be coping.
He works within an integrative approach, which means that your work together will be a blend of varying theoretical thinking to meet your individual needs. As your therapist he will be a part of the process to guide, support and ensure that you are able to find the answers you are looking for.
Steve is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and as such adhere to their ethical framework.

Anton Smith
Just because you’re not able, in the present, to deal with things that are bothering you, it doesn’t mean you’re any less of a person.
Crises Are Good For Us. They present opportunities to understand ourselves, raise our self-esteem, emotional stability and generally grow through overcoming difficulties.
Depression, anxiety, addiction and relationship problems and much more are nearly always connected to something we’re avoiding – either consciously or subconsciously.
I know, I’ve been through it all. It was painful dealing with my particular set of difficulties but so rewarding to come through it all and anyone can do the same if they have the willingness and courage to have a go. I work within a Person-Centered/Transpersonal framework but in addition my considerable life experience has proven extremely helpful to clients over the years – after all I’m simply another human being who’s had the beneficial experience of coming through my own struggles.
