  • Adam

    Adam Johnson

    Counsellor

    82 Windsor Road, OL8 1RP

    My name is Adam Johnson. I offer counselling face to face and via telephone. We'll go to the doctor when we feel unwell physically: sore throat, flu, bad cough. So why don’t we see a health professional when we feel emotional pain: guilt, loss or loneliness, if we are feeling sad or having relationship issues or family issues? Too many of us deal with common psychological-health issues on our own, but we don’t have to. We can go and see someone, someone who will be able to understand our situation and help. Emotional health is as important as breaking your leg and you certainly wouldn't leave that untreated, would you? You would go and see the doctor, that trained professional who you know and trust will help you. I specialise with clients who are experiencing depression, anxiety/generalised anxiety disorder as well as OCD, panic disorder and stress. I also do lots of work with people going through a bereavement as well as people who suffer with low self esteem and low self confidence. I have lots of experience of working with clients who are suffering from neurological illness. I possess a  natural quality that makes people feel at ease, which is great for a potential client seeking counselling who may be feeling anxious about seeing a counsellor.  I am an excellent listener and a deeply empathetic and warm counsellor who is caring and non-judgemental. I am a fully qualified Integrative Counsellor. This means I use three approaches to counselling, these approaches are: Person Centred Therapy, Transactional Analysis and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy. I am also a registered member of the BACP and i am an approved therapist with Anxiety UK Please contact me to arrange a free no-obligation 30 minute assessment to see whether you would feel comfortable working with me. You can contact me through this website or direct on the provided telephone number. You can also visit my website where you can find out more about me and counselling. Thank you and good luck with your counselling journey. My therapy room has wheelchair access. Parking Available: Yes: There is plenty of free on street parking available at the location.

  • Ilana

    Ilana Samberg

    Counsellor

    Wellness Centre, M26 1NW

    Thank you for visiting my profile. I believe that counselling can help us to gain a better understanding of ourselves and our feelings, as it can help to work through some challenging issues and periods in our lives. Reaching out to friends and family can sometimes feel daunting and many people find there is a need to hold back from them how they are truly feeling. Speaking to someone impartial can feel easier and can allow you the opportunity to unpick some of these emotions at a deeper level. Counselling allows you to explore some of your innermost thoughts and feelings in a compassionate and empathic space, without judgement. I trained in person-centred counselling, which means I work in a client-led and non-directive way. A counsellor is not there to provide answers or to tell you what to do, but to support you in exploring your feelings in more depth, to help you to find some clarity. I have also done some solution-focused work, where together we can look at how to move towards where you want to be by setting small and achievable goals. I qualified as a counsellor in 2012 and I have since worked for Mind, for an employee assistance programme and within private practice. I've worked with issues including depression, anxiety, bereavement, relationship issues, trauma and stress. I have worked in both a long-term and short-term capacity, depending on my clients' needs.

    Margaret Cook

    Counsellor

    Rectory Lane, BL9 7SW

    I know how hard it can be to seek help for life's difficulties so I am glad that you have taken this first step of looking for a counsellor/therapist to help you. I am a qualified counsellor and hypnotherapist and I have 21 years’ experience of helping clients with anxiety, stress, bullying, phobias, panic attacks, bereavement, and relationship problems. I first became interested in hypnotherapy to overcome a flying phobia and after 3 sessions I was a relaxed and confident passenger. Subsequently I broadened my knowledge by reading more about hypnosis. Later I undertook training to become a hypnotherapist and eventually became an examiner helping other therapists to train, and this included travelling overseas. I am passionate about helping people take control of their lives so they can live as happily, calmly and productively as possible. I understand how negative behaviour and habits can limit your life, but there really is no need to suffer unnecessarily. As an Accredited member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) I work within their professional and ethical framework. I regularly update my training and professional development and receive on-going clinical supervision, as recommended by the professional body. During my counselling training I worked as a volunteer counsellor at the Royal Oldham Hospital for Oldham Bereavement Support which is a local charity that supports families experiencing bereavement. I am happy to offer a free initial phone consultation before you book an appointment, to help you to see if what I offer feels right for you. If you would like to contact me, I look forward to hearing from you.

Adam
Counselling offers you an opportunity to explore your past and present experiences through building a trusting counselling relationship. I work in an Integrative way using ideas from different schools of counselling that can incorporate different ways of working, according to the client's needs. The key aspect here is that with an Integrative approach counselling can be tailored to you the client depending on what suits you and what may work best for you. ​Counselling can be short term (time-limited therapy) which will involve a short number of sessions such as 6 - 8 sessions, and at other times, the therapy may involve working for longer in order for you to make more deep rooted changes in yourself or your life, this is usually termed as "open-ended" therapy which means counselling can carry on for as long as we both feel necessary.
Adam Johnson Counsellor
Ilana
Sessions are usually done weekly and last up to 50 minutes. During our first session, we'll talk through what's brought you to the sessions and we will look at the process and at issues such as confidentiality.
Ilana Samberg Counsellor
Margaret
My role is to help you explore your concerns and find ways forward that are right for you. I will facilitate and support you in a safe and confidential environment to explore the issues you choose to talk about, without being rushed or feeling judged. I will work with you to understand what you are experiencing and help you to find your own answers and ways to overcome your difficulties. You can have as many or as few sessions as you feel you need. Sessions usually last one hour and are offered weekly, but this can be varied depending on your need and my availability.
