Helping you feel like ‘you’ again

Are you struggling with anxiety, stress, or depression right now?

Maybe you are recovering from things that happened in the past?

Or perhaps you feel well but might be seeking a better understanding of yourself and your place in the world, to build resilience for the future?

I'm Niall, a British Association of Counselling & Psychotherapy registered counsellor. 

Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, depression, work related stress, and low mood starts to build.

You may be finding it harder to switch off, struggling with motivation, or feeling weighed down by expectations.

Counselling offers a safe and confidential space to pause, reflect, and understand what’s going on beneath the surface without judgement or pressure.

My approach to counselling and psychotherapy is rooted in the person-centred tradition. This means I believe you possess the innate ability and inner resources to solve your own challenges and achieve lasting personal growth. It is my role to work with you to create the right environment for you to work through the issues you are facing.

Working with through an easy to use online videocall system, I offer a warm, safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space where you are fully accepted and empowered as the expert of your own life. 

Working online also means that you can access counselling in a way convenient to you.

Get Well

Whether you’re experiencing anxiety, depression, persistent stress, sleep difficulties, low confidence, or a sense of being stuck, we can work together to understand what’s happening and why.

You may be navigating a major life change, feeling disconnected from yourself, or struggling to manage emotions that once felt manageable. We will focus on reducing distress, building coping strategies, and restoring a sense of control.

Together we can create some breathing room for you to feel more like you again and Get Well.

Stay Well

Perhaps you have already had therapy and made some meaningful progress, but want to maintain momentum and prevent old patterns from resurfacing.

You may have overcome anxiety, depression, burnout, or a difficult period in your life, and now you want to protect the gains you’ve made.

Together, we will look at what helps you thrive, what puts you at risk of slipping backwards, and how to build a lifestyle that supports emotional resilience, reinforces healthy habits, and gives you long‑term strategies to help you to Stay Well.

Be Well

Maybe you've never had therapy before but are looking for ways to build resilience and deepen self‑awareness in the face of life's challenges.

You might be seeking greater confidence, stronger boundaries, improved relationships, or a clearer sense of direction. You may simply want to understand yourself better.

We can explore your strengths, values, and aspirations, creating space for personal development that feels empowering rather than reactive, so that you can grow and Be Well.

Stress at work

Maybe you've never had therapy before but are seeking greater confidence, stronger boundaries, improved relationships, or a clearer sense of direction. 

Together we can create space to reflect and grow which can be helpful for those with demanding jobs like managers, leaders and executives, or people with busy lives.

All so that you can capitalise on your strengths, values, and aspirations so that you can grow and Be Well.

Successful therapy is built upon trusted relationships. That's why I offer a confidential and free initial assessment session where we can explore what you are looking for from therapy and how things might work. 

You are in control - and can ask me whatever questions you need to help you decide whether I am the right therapist for you.

After that, in our first session we will discuss how we will approach crucial issues such as confidentiality, and finalise our approach to working together. This helps maintain momentum and build a consistent rhythm that supports meaningful change.

You can book and amend sessions at any time through an easy to use Client Portal - accessible via www.iminduk.com
