Mary Kelly – counsellor, psychotherapist & hypnotherapist

24th September 2023 No Comments

I provide non-judgemental, open and honest support. I help people explore their thoughts, feelings and behaviours. Together we can figure out healthier and happier ways of dealing with situations. I can help people understand issues in their lives or patterns of behaviour. My therapy sessions are a safe place where you can talk freely without fear of being judged or blamed. I have over 20 years of experience working in care and educational settings. I first began supporting people with their mental health when I worked at ChildLine as a voice and online counsellor offering a listening service to children and young people. Since 2020 I have been working in various schools in South Yorkshire and Derbyshire supporting children & young people, staff and families. I now also work in private practice with children, young people and adults.

Sally Bamford (previously Royds) – Derbyshire Psychotherapist

14th February 2023 No Comments

Hello, I’m Sally, welcome.

I have experience of helping people with many different personal problems-anxiety, depression, feelings of helplessness, abuse of different kinds, physical and emotional. My past clients have included people who couldn’t make sense of their lives, some who have found it hard to step outside of their front door feeling like they had lost control of their lives. I have helped adults of all ages who suffered from difficult or abusive families.

How I work

To begin with I will listen to you. As I get to know you and the difficulties you face, I will help you to feel that you have a safe place to say anything, without being judged in any way. As you learn to trust me, together we can find ways to deal with the causes of those difficulties and how to cope. I will help you to make the most of your own potential to deal with life, even if you don’t think you can. I will help you to believe and trust in yourself.

Appointments avaialable on Wednesdays. My background is in the field of psychology and mental health. My approach to counselling is integrative. I use a combination of methods and theories to help clients through their difficulties. This includes person-centred therapy, attachment, cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) and compassion focused therapy.

I aim to support clients develop an understanding of how their difficulties came about in order to collaboratively develop a suitable way forward from which people will gain long lasting benefit.

Appointments avaialble Mondays, Fridays and Saturdays. I am a psychodynamically trained counsellor registered with the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists. I offer professional, compassionate and tailored counselling sessions to individuals. I gained the majority of my experience as a counsellor through offering counselling at Ashgate Hospice to patients with a terminal diagnosis, their family members and the bereaved. As a result my specialities are grief and situational depression. I create a safe and confidential space to work empathically with clients to allow them to feel comfortable and able to open up without fear of judgement, set goals and achieve them. Therefore improving mental health, well-being and quality of life.
