Olivia Easter

Counsellor

Many of the people I work with come to therapy feeling exhausted from holding it all together. They might be living with anxiety or depression, struggling with low self-worth, navigating infertility, relationships, loss, or a deep sense of confusion or isolation. Often, there’s a sense of being overwhelmed by life, or of feeling left behind, behind schedule, or out of sync with others. I have a particular passion for working with people in their twenties and thirties. This can be such a transitory and tender time full of possibility, pressure, comparison and change. You might be asking yourself big questions: Who am I becoming? Am I doing life “right”? Why does everyone else seem to have it figured out? Therapy with me can offer you a place to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with yourself amidst all of this. Together, we can explore what’s been weighing on you, what might feel stuck or confusing, and what you long for beneath the surface. Therapy can help you make sense of your feelings, develop greater self-awareness, and build a more trusting relationship with yourself. Over time, this can support you to live in a way that feels more aligned, authentic and meaningful. Prior to beginning my private practice, I gained extensive professional experience working in a variety of environments, including nonprofit organisations and Greater London mental health community services. I’ve also gained rich experience through volunteering for the crisis service line SHOUT, the UK’s first and only free, confidential, 24/7 text service for those suffering with poor mental health. This experience has given me the opportunity to work with a diverse range of individuals across a broad spectrum of concerns. I hold a postgraduate advanced diploma in Humanistic Psychotherapeutic Counselling from the Metanoia Institute in London. I hold the Certificate of Proficiency from BACP. I hold an undergraduate degree in Philosophy (International) from the University of Leeds. I am a registered member of BACP, I am a trainee member of UKCP and I am a member of the Metanoia Institute. I abide by all of their ethical codes. I receive regular clinical supervision to support my practice and to ensure I am working safely and ethically.

Child or adolescent therapist

I provide counselling and psychotherapy for children and young people in a safe and supportive environment where they can explore their thoughts, feelings, and life challenges. Whether it’s anxiety, stress, low mood, trauma, grief, low self-esteem, bullying, or issues with relationships and identity, therapy can help young people work through a wide range of emotional, behavioural, and psychological concerns. My approach is tailored for young people who need low-level intervention to better understand themselves, manage their emotions, and learn self-regulation. I work with those who want to explore their sense of self, helping young people express their emotions and thoughts in a safe, healthy environment. My therapeutic approach is integrative, meaning I adapt each session to suit the unique needs of the individual. I draw from various therapeutic modalities, including child-centred and psychodynamic approaches, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Attachment Theory, all with a strong focus on the young persons well being.

Tom Laverton

Integrative therapist (blended approaches)

Therapy for people who feel the pressure to hold everything together, but are starting to feel the strain of doing it alone. You might look like you’re coping on the outside, but inside feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in a way that’s hard to explain. I work particularly with people — often men — who carry responsibility and find it hard to share what’s going on. I offer a steady, confidential space to talk honestly, without pressure or judgement. In-person in Petersfield and online across the UK. I support adults experiencing anxiety, burnout, grief, and life transitions, as well as those seeking deeper self-understanding. Therapy offers space to make sense of patterns, emotions, and experiences shaping your present. My work is integrative, drawing on humanistic, psychodynamic and transpersonal approaches. In practice, this means a relational, grounded way of working that explores both what’s happening now and the deeper patterns beneath the surface.

At times, I incorporate creative and experiential approaches, such as body awareness and visual tools, depending on what feels supportive for the client. I work with a range of issues including anxiety, bereavement, loneliness, work and relationship difficulties, women’s health concerns, and life transitions. I am also passionate about supporting carers and those in caring roles, recognising the emotional load and complexity this can bring. I offer both online and face-to-face sessions. My practice is holistic and collaborative, supporting clients to reconnect with their sense of self, navigate change, and build greater emotional awareness and resilience. I work gently and respectfully, meeting each person where they are, and supporting meaningful, lasting change.

Emma Edwards

Counsellor

As a Counsellor I have worked with a variety of issues, especially those related to bereavement and loss. The experience of grief for many people can be hard to share with loved ones and be quite isolating. So often the focus of our work here, is to create an empathic space where your feelings can be shared, heard and validated. I have also completed additional training around pregnancy loss. As for many, pregnancy loss can be a upsetting and traumatic event, however often the experiance of this grief is more likely to be hidden, and isolating My professional background is working in social care and as a social worker, such, I have always had a passion for supporting people – especially those experiencing complex physical healthcare needs, and their carers and families, Also working in these environments has also given me a good understanding of the pressures that fast-paced highly-stressed workplaces can place on an individual’s wellbeing leading to stress and burnout.
