Book AppointmentYassir Mukhtar
TherapistStruggles with anxiety, low mood or traumatic experiences can have a significant impact on the daily functioning. My great passion is bringing improvements and facilitate changes to people who have been struggling with severe life stressors.I help my clients, who include children, adolescents and adults to identify and understand their difficulties, find healthy perceptions of themselves and to increase their self-esteem and self-confidence.I would describe my approach as goal oriented and client centred. I use Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapy which usually involves understanding and making changes to the thinking patterns and behaviours. The anxious, depressive and stressful thoughts are replaced to think and feel better by identifying, challenging, disputing and replacing the unhelpful thinking patterns.
I have a master’s degree in Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapy.I would describe myself as down-to-earth and open-minded. I understand that seeking help and working with painful difficulties can be very challenging and requires establishing a trusting and an emotional supportive relationship. I truly believe that everyone deserves to be understood, heard and supported while working towards becoming their best selves. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support you and facilitate change, as it is possible!I look forward to working with you!

Book AppointmentVjosa Rizaj
TherapistTalking to a therapist in confidence may help you to understand and acknowledge the feelings you are experiencing and enable you to begin to move forward in your life. Counselling and Psychotherapy can be helpful whether you’re struggling with something specific, feeling generally low, overwhelmed or stuck. It offers you a place to slow down, reflect, and explore new perspectives and possibilities. Perhaps, you want things to be different in some way or feel that some focused time to explore, and better understand your thoughts and feelings might be helpful. Then this is the right place for you.
Book AppointmentMandy McCloskey
TherapistSince stress affects most of us at some point in our lives, it’s useful to recognize when you are under stress, what could be causing it and what you can do about it.Stress is your body's way of responding to any kind of demand/threat/pressure, whether the experience is good or bad. Many things cause stress, and having the ability to identify your own stresses can be the first step in learning how to cope/deal with them. It is normal to experience stress and stress is quite beneficial for motivation during certain times when needed. It’s ok to have a bad day, and it’s ok to have a bad week (depending on the circumstances).
The problem occurs when prolonged stress is present and a person feels unable to cope because our bodies are not designed to deal with huge demands (physically and emotionally) on a daily basis.
I look forward to working with you.
