Compassionate, trauma informed counselling for adults seeking clarity, healing and emotional balance
Teri Richards MBACP MNCPS accred
I offer a calm, supportive space where you can explore whats happening in your life, understand your emotions and move towards meaningful change - at a pace that feels right for you.
You may be here because....
Life feels heavy, something isnt working, you are tired of coping alone
I support adults in rebuilding their lives after:
- sexual abuse
- Domestic violence
- Problematic substance use
I also support clients with:
- Anxiety, worry or overthinking
- Low self esteem or self critisism
- trauma or difficult past experiences
- Greif and loss
- Feeling stuck or overwhelmed
- Major life transistions
How I work
My approach is integrative and trauma informed, which means i draw from several theraputic models and tailor our work to your unique needs.
In our sessions you can expect:
- A warm non-judgemental space
- Gentle exploration of your thoughts and feelings
- Support in understanding patterns and emotional repsonses
- A collaborative relationship where your voice matters
- Space to reconnect with your inner resources and strengths
Therapy isnt about "fixing" you - its about understanding you, supporting you, and helping you move toward a life that feels more grounded and authentic.
What to expect
Starting therapy can feel daunting . Heres what the process looks like:
- Free 15 minute consultation to see if we are a good fit
- Weekly or fortnightly sessions ,in person, online or via telephone.
- A pace that feels safe -no pressure, no judgement
- A confidential supportive enviroment where you can be yourself.
You are welcome exactly as you are.
