Danusia Mulligan Dip Couns MBACP MNCS (Accred)
About me
I've successfully helped many clients overcome challenges such as anxiety, panic, stress, depression, family and relationship problems, identity issues or loss. Counselling can be helpful, supportive and empowering. It offers a safe, supportive and confidential space for you to talk without fear of being judged or criticised. Therapy can help identify unhelpful behaviour patterns, values and mindsets. It can help you find realistic solutions to your current troubles. Talking about your problems can also help lessen feelings of hopelessness and isolation too.
I am an experienced person centred therapist and I can offer you an empathetic and confidential short term or long term face to face therapeutic relationship in which you feel valued, supported, and listened to. By working alongside one another at a pace that is best for you, we can explore what's holding you back and why; whether your difficulties stem from historic trauma, present day experiences or a one off life event.
Next step....
It can be hard deciding who you want to work with or whether therapy is even the right next step for you, and for that reason, I offer a free 20 minutes consultation. Please call or email; I will aim to respond to you within 48 hours.

BACP is one of the UK’s largest professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy.
