Counselling Network – Find the right counsellor for you

I've changed in so many ways, I feel so much lighter. It's not so much of a traffic jam in my head now. I have been in counselling since I was 18 (now age 38) and this is the only one that's ever worked, it's been life changing. I’ve never done the exposure hierarchy before and that really worked for me to tackle my anxiety rather than just coping strategies.

I found Uplift Therapy Solutions when I was at my lowest I’ve ever been, had an online consultation with Nad who understood what I was going through and arranged a face to face meeting within a week. Nad helped me every week and understood what I was going through even when I took step backs. After several months Nad helped me find me again and I will never forget what he has done for me. Highly recommended.

Jojo has help me get through so much unimaginable problems I have been ignoring. I am shy, quite and not very social, but talking to Jojo was easy, no pressure and felt comfortable. As a (undiagnosed) neurodivergent, she has really opened my eyes to help me understand why I have been struggling. Thank you so much Jojo I am so glad I came to you first. Helped me more than you know, giving me solutions and supporting me. Would always recommend you everytime.

Karen Jackson "Harry has an insightful, gentle presence with a broad range of transferable tools. I had the great fortune to meet Harry at a wellbeing fayre and instantly connected, which is very easy to do, he being such a pure and caring soul. His coaching was very relevant, insightful, and left me with many techniques that I can readily apply in my life. Highly recommend this learned, heart centered coach."

Sharon has helped me deal with decades of misdirected guilt and I am now enjoying a much better life with a new social circle as a result. There’s still work to do and I’m now armed with the tools to tackle it. Thank you!

I am very grateful to Sharon for the effort she made with me. I have seen OHU counsellors and NHS counsellors too but I would say from the CBT point of view Sharon was really good in her field, she was understanding, knowledgeable and professional. And by far the best therapist I have interacted with on a CBT front. My panic attacks and anxiety were illnesses related and very severe. I would definitely recommend engaging in a few sessions especially if you are experiencing complex issues.

When I met Sharon I thought she didn’t look or act what I thought a counsellor would be like…I immediately felt a trust. Each week I felt happier. Work paid for my session and on my 8th and final session I was walking on air and returned to work after 7 months of being signed off! I can’t thank Sharon enough.

I spent close to 11 months working with Lisa, and from the beginning she made the sessions feel like a safe and welcoming space. I was able to share thoughts and feelings that I hadn't been able to before and at no point did she make me feel judged or criticised. Overall, the sessions with Lisa led to me making some big changes in my life, she supported me in a way that I didn't feel pressure to do or change anything I wasn't ready for, which has made me feel like the changes can be lasting.

Thank you. I genuinely couldn’t have found a better individual to speak to if I was still searching now. Sharon recognised bits and pieces I hadn’t even thought of before we really got talking. I opened up my world, Sharon listened carefully and acted with consideration not just for me but for those of importance to me. You are an incredibly gifted professional and I would not hesitate in recommending you.

Thank you again, Michael, for the past year of therapy. It has been invaluable and has given me the foundation I need to continue growing, learning, and investing in myself. With your guidance, I have gained a much clearer insight into myself. For the first time in my life, I feel at peace.
