Private Student Counselling in York

 

A warm welcome. I am a therapist in York offering private counselling,

both face to face in York and online across the UK, for young

adults and university students experiencing anxiety, stress, low mood,

low self-esteem and feeling overwhelmed by student life or life in

general.

​

You may be finding university or early adult life more difficult than

expected. Perhaps you are overthinking everything, feeling stuck or

lost, struggling with relationships or feeling unsure about your direction

in life.

​

Alongside my private practice, I work as a university counsellor and

have extensive experience supporting students through academic

pressure, anxiety, burnout, identity questions and the transitions that

come with this stage of life.

​

I offer weekly or fortnightly counselling for a range of difficulties

including anxiety, low mood, low self-esteem, overwhelm, relationship

difficulties and loss. I work with many autistic students and LGBTQ+ students

​

Counselling is a space where you can talk about whatever feels important

to you, including things that feel hard to say elsewhere.

​

It is not always easy to talk to family or friends. You may worry about being a burden or feel that you will be judged.

In counselling, you do not need to have the right words or a clear reason for coming. We can begin wherever you are.

Counselling can help you to:

​

  • identify and understand difficult feelings

  • feel less overwhelmed and more grounded

  • understand yourself and your relationships more clearly

  • find new ways of coping with problems

  • improve confidence and self-esteem

​

All of which can support your wellbeing and quality of life.

​

Sessions are available in person in York or online depending on what feels most comfortable for you.
