Have been with Heather Brown over a few years now through periods of anxiety; , grief and other life experiences, and feel blessed to have been matched with her. What's unique (and not so common with other therapists I was briefly connected with) is in addition to the video sessions, she is always available on chat and replies promptly. She's perfect at being there :) and giving the right, useful tools/advice.

I wanted to share my experience with Heather Brown, who has been an incredible source of support for me during a challenging period of relationship grief. From the very beginning, she made me feel heard and understood, offering so much kindness, empathy, and care in every session. Her ability to provide validation, especially when discussing difficult emotions and mixed messages from a past relationship, helped me feel less alone and more at peace with my feelings. What really stood out about Heather was how refreshing it was to speak with her. She changed the way I view therapy, making it a positive and empowering experience. Her understanding and thoughtful insights made me feel truly supported, and I always left our sessions with so much to reflect on. I also appreciated Heather’s dedication to creating a safe and comfortable space where I could explore my thoughts without judgement. I’m deeply grateful for the time, effort, and guidance she’s provided. If you’re considering therapy, I can wholeheartedly recommend Heather. She brings genuine care and empathy to her work, and I’m sure you’ll feel as supported and understood as I did.

Hi my name is Heather. I am a psychotherapeutic counsellor, hypnotherapist and Registered Nurse for Learning Disabled(RNLD). I have over 30 years experience caring for others with various mental health and behavioural challenges.
I became interested in counselling due to a difficult period in my own life and I wanted to understand my emotional reactions and responses. This gave me insight and understanding which allowed me to make positive changes in my life.
I am trained in an integrative style which allows me to utilise various approaches to assist your needs. I predominantly work in a client centre manner and may utilise behavioural approaches, solution focused and mindfulness. I can work with your past and your present, to help you understand your reactions to others and situations. My aim is to help you find the right path for you.
I look forward to being part of your journey.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Heather was very approachable and understanding which made it easy to open up about my concerns. I’m really grateful for the time she gave me and I’ll certainly request her time again if/when I’m feeling the need. Thank you so much.
Heather is great. I'm not that confident about therapy and she's done a great job listening and helping me tease out my thoughts.
