We understand that each individual’s story is unique, and we tailor our therapeutic interventions to meet your specific needs, goals, and values. Our work together is collaborative, client-centred, and designed to empower lasting resilience and wellbeing.
Therapies Offered
Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR)
EMDR is a structured, evidence-based therapy designed to help individuals process and recover from traumatic experiences and emotional distress. Through guided bilateral stimulation—such as eye movements—EMDR facilitates the brain’s natural ability to reprocess traumatic memories, reducing their emotional intensity and allowing for adaptive resolution.
At Mind Wellbeing Counselling, EMDR is offered as a primary treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), childhood trauma, and other psychological conditions rooted in past adversity. Clients often experience significant shifts in emotional regulation, self-perception, and psychological resilience through this method.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
CBT is one of the most widely researched and effective therapies for a range of mental health conditions, including depression, anxiety, and behavioural challenges. It focuses on identifying and restructuring unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours, promoting healthier coping strategies and emotional wellbeing.
In our work together, CBT techniques are thoughtfully adapted to address your specific experiences, supporting you to develop practical tools for managing stress, enhancing emotional regulation, and building lasting cognitive resilience.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is a modern, dynamic form of cognitive behavioural therapy, often referred to as part of the “third wave” of psychological interventions. ACT emphasises the cultivation of psychological flexibility—helping individuals accept what is outside their personal control while committing to action aligned with their deeply held values.
Using ACT, we work to help you disengage from unhelpful mental narratives, foster acceptance of difficult emotions, and strengthen your ability to pursue a meaningful life with openness, courage, and resilience.
Motivational Interviewing (MI)
Motivational Interviewing is a client-centred, directive method for enhancing intrinsic motivation to change by exploring and resolving ambivalence. Originally developed for work with individuals struggling with substance misuse, MI has since proven highly effective across a broad range of behavioural and psychological challenges.
At Mind Wellbeing Counselling, MI techniques are integrated thoughtfully into the therapeutic process, particularly when supporting clients facing addictive behaviours, health-related changes, or ambivalence around significant life transitions. This approach respects your autonomy, draws upon your existing strengths, and empowers sustainable, self-directed change.
Areas of Specialisation
Trauma
Trauma can profoundly affect an individual’s emotional, psychological, and even physical wellbeing. Whether arising from acute incidents, complex interpersonal experiences, or prolonged exposure to adversity, unresolved trauma often manifests in various aspects of life.
At Mind Wellbeing Counselling, we approach trauma therapy with deep respect, sensitivity, and clinical rigour. Using EMDR, ACT, and trauma-focused CBT, we support you in processing traumatic memories, rebuilding safety and trust, and fostering resilience in the aftermath of adversity. We recognise that healing from trauma is a highly personal journey, and we are honoured to walk alongside you through each stage of recovery.
Addictive Behaviours
Addiction impacts not only the individual but also their relationships, wellbeing, and sense of self. Whether involving alcohol, drugs, gambling, or other behaviours, addiction is often rooted in deeper psychological pain or unresolved trauma.
Drawing from my specialised training in addictive behaviours and extensive clinical experience, Mind Wellbeing Counselling offers comprehensive, non-judgmental support for individuals seeking freedom from addictive patterns. Our therapeutic approach integrates Motivational Interviewing, CBT, and ACT to foster insight, strengthen coping mechanisms, and support sustainable recovery and life transformation.
Anxiety and Depressive Disorders
Anxiety and depression are among the most common mental health concerns, yet each individual’s experience is deeply personal and nuanced. These conditions can affect mood, motivation, energy levels, relationships, and overall quality of life.
At Mind Wellbeing Counselling, we provide evidence-based, compassionate interventions tailored to your needs. Through CBT, ACT, and mindfulness-based strategies, we support you in recognising unhelpful thought patterns, building emotional resilience, and reconnecting with a sense of hope and purpose. Together, we work towards restoring balance, cultivating inner strength, and empowering you to live more fully and freely.
Relationship Challenges
Human connection is fundamental to our emotional wellbeing. Yet, relationships—whether romantic, familial, or interpersonal—can also be sources of profound stress, conflict, and pain.
We offer skilled therapeutic support to individuals facing a variety of relational difficulties, including communication breakdowns, trust issues, separation and divorce adjustment, family dynamics, and the impact of trauma on relationships. Our work together focuses on building emotional awareness, improving communication skills, resolving underlying patterns, and fostering healthier, more fulfilling connections.
Whether you are seeking support for healing within existing relationships or recovering from relational trauma, Mind Wellbeing Counselling provides a safe and supportive space for growth, reflection, and renewal.
