Profile

Hello, and welcome.  I provide caring, professional and confidential counselling for people experiencing depression, anxiety, anger, stress, relationship issues and loss, as well as many other issues.  I use a blend of methods and can tailor my approach to each individual.  I provide counselling, CBT, psychotherapy and personal-coaching in Nottingham in a safe, supportive and non-judgemental environment. 

I see many clients suffering with depression, anxiety, panic, relationship difficulties and communication problems but there are many other issues that people bring to counselling to help them resolve, for example:

  • Depression, feelings of despair and hopelessness.
  • Anxiety, agitation or panic.
  • Unresolved hurt, anger, shame or fear.
  • Old hurts or "baggage" from the past.
  • Childhood issues.
  • Relationship or communication issues.
  • Low self-esteem, lack of confidence or insecurities.
  • Anger, aggression, personal or work-related stress.
  • Bullying or abuse, physical, emotional or sexual, past or present.
  • Post traumatic stress, PTSD or distressing memories.
  • Repeating patterns of limiting or compulsive behaviours or thoughts.
  • Issues around bereavement, loss, illness, redundancy and other major life changes.

I believe that everyone is unique and that we all have the ability and potential to think, learn, grow and change their life for the better. My aim is to support you so that you can make positive changes to improve your life and relationships.

I offer morning (from 8am), afternoon and early evening appointments, depending on day and availability at the time.  I charge £45 per hour for individual counselling and psychotherapy and can provide short, medium or long term support, depending on what you need. 

Please take a look through my website www.spaceforhealing.co.uk to find out more and give me a call on 07913 153406 if you would like more information or to book an appointment.

What past clients have said about their experience of counselling:

"Let go of any preconceived ideas you may have about counselling.  Ann's interactive style of emotional and theoretical reflection backed up with models and frameworks helped me change my thought processes and has made all the difference to how I feel."

"Ann was always extremely professional and knowledgeable throughout our sessions. She had the right combination of caring and kindness as well as professionalism. She took time to explain things clearly so that I could relate counselling theories to my own situation. The sessions have been invaluable to me and I haven't looked back."

"You can identify who you really are and focus on being the person you always wanted to be, rather than being hindered by the past."

"I learned so much about myself during my sessions with Ann.  I uncovered a lot about my past and things that have influenced who I am now.  It has been invaluable allowing me to move forward in my life, helping me to understand so much and let go of the past and grow as a person.  I now also have a toolkit of techniques and methods that will help me whatever I face in the future." 

"It really helps to know you're not alone and that there really are ways to help you understand and cope with whatever issues you face. There are practical tools to help you heal and move forward with your life, so it's worth giving it a go."
