Naomi O'Connor

Hello! I'm Naomi, a UK qualified psychotherapist. I offer online counselling to adults in the UK and EU countries. I understand that it's not the easiest step to embark on a counselling journey, so thank you very much for clicking on my page.

Counselling can help you make sense of your past, re-assess your present and think about the direction you would like your future to be. As a therapist, I am able to provide you with a safe and non-judgemental space, to help you build a kinder relationship with yourself and in turn, be able to make sense of your concerns, facilitate your own insight, and explore solutions in a way which has meaning for you.

I provide a service that is uniquely tailored to you and your difficulties, no matter how big they may seem. My aim is to support you to explore challenges, painful situations, negative thoughts/behaviours and more, which may be preventing you from living your life to the fullest.

My specialism is working with recovery from narcissistic abuse, trauma, relationship difficulties, anxiety & depression, overthinking & intrusive thoughts, low self-esteem, and emotional distress.

I also have extensive experience of working with bereavement and simply feeling stuck in life.

Each person is unique so I work in an integrative and relational way where I am able to take from a variety of various counselling approaches and techniques to best fit your needs. These include person centred, attachment, CBT, and the psychodynamic approach.

You will have the option of doing short or long term sessions depending on your financial situation, and depending on what you aim to get out of counselling.

I have worked with the Improving Access to Psychological Therapies program (IAPT) where I offered counselling to adult clients (18+) referred by their GP to the IAPT service funded by the NHS.

Please feel free to email me to arrange a free brief phone call to discuss whether we can work together and to give you the opportunity to ask any questions.

What I work with:

-Anxiety (including panic attacks)

-Depression

-Setting boundaries and reducing people pleasing behaviours

-General relationship difficulties

-Work-related stress

-Family issues

Navigating Trauma and the Past:

My practice is rooted in supporting individuals through both recent and past trauma. I am particularly well-versed in working with childhood trauma & ''the inner child'', helping you explore how early experiences may still be echoing in your life today, impacting your current emotional wellbeing, your attachment style, self-esteem and relationships.

Apart from childhood trauma and difficult upbringings, I also work with other trauma: violent, sexual, verbal and racial to mention some.

Abuse, Complex & Narcissistic Relationships (romantic, parental, sibling, friends & collegial relationships):

I work with those impacted by abuse, narcissistic dynamics, and toxic or difficult relationships. If you're currently in a difficult relationship, seeking to understand one from your past, or are in the process of leaving, there will be room to explore the complexities of your feelings, dynamics, & direction in these particular relationships. There will never be any pressure from me to leave a relationship.

I also work with clients who have difficult parent-child relationships, and have a deep understanding of the unique cultural nuances within different cultural backgrounds, including the specific pressures and emotional bonds that shape the relationship between these parents and their children.

Working with Mothers:

I give mothers space to explore the profound emotional & physical landscape of parenting—honouring both the immense joys and complex challenges this transition brings. I support women through:

- Postpartum depression

-Healing from traumatic births

- The persistent weight of "maternal guilt"

- Managing anxieties that arise when one’s own past trauma surfaces in your parenting

-Simply wanting to parent better
