My name is Shareen Birges & I am a social worker who specialises in online counselling. I have been practicing for over 15 years & as a result, have a broad range of experience. I have worked with adolescents & their families, adults & couples. I specialise in the care of people with cancer and chronic illness, mental health, dual diagnosis/comorbidity, trauma background (including sexual abuse/assault & childhood abuse and trauma) & people with offending behaviour & people living with BPD. Due to my extensive experience working with adolescents and young people, I have developed an ability to work closely with families & other professionals, whilst keeping the boundary of privacy & confidentiality. I believe I am approachable & create a good balance between challenging clients & allowing their therapy to flow at a pace that feel comfortable to them.

Talktojojo1st ( Josephine Aligwekwe aka Jojo)
Registered Psychotherapist, Pg Adv Dip Psych, Cert. Trauma-Informed & Christian Counsellor , Cert. NLP Coach, Bsc Maths/Comp. Sc
I am a compassionate, patient, and caring person who has always had a deep interest in people and their life stories. Early in my career, this naturally led me to work as a trainer, where I enjoyed supporting and guiding others in their personal and professional development.
Over time, my passion for working closely with people led me to transition into counselling and psychotherapy. I find great meaning in creating a space where individuals can openly talk about their relationships, life experiences, and the challenges they may be facing.
With a natural ability to listen deeply and empathetically, I work with clients to identify the patterns or obstacles that may be holding them back from becoming their best selves. Together, we explore ways to overcome these challenges and support meaningful personal growth and healing.

Lavinia May
Counsellor/Therapist, MNCPS (Acc.)
Hi, I’m Lavinia,
If you and your partner keep having the same argument, feel stuck in old patterns, or notice anxiety creeping into your relationship, you're not alone. I work with both couples and individuals, with a particular focus on relationship work. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical: we'll make sense of what's happening between you and build small, realistic changes that help your relationship feel easier and more connected.
I draw on evidence-based tools (CBT/ACT, attachment informed work, emotion-focused & systemic ideas for couples) without the jargon. Sessions feel like real conversations with structure: we set goals together, track what’s helping, and adapt as we go.
I work with couples and individuals navigating: recurring conflict, communication breakdowns, trust repairs, intimacy struggles, anxiety affecting the relationship, family and in-law boundaries, life transitions, stress and burnout, and reconnecting after rupture.
Practicalities: 50-minute sessions • Online or in person in my Sandbach office • Individual & Couples. 🎁 20% Off All Therapy Sessions - Until May 2026
Next step: I offer a brief 10–15 minute introductory call (not a therapy session) where you can ask questions and we can see if we’re a good fit. If you prefer, you’re welcome to skip the call and book a first therapy session straight away.
Available in-person in Sandbach, Cheshire, or online from anywhere.

Claire de la Varre
Therapist, PhD, HGDipP
If you are feeling overwhelmed because of illness, relationships, or other challenges in your life, therapy can help break things down into manageable pieces. When you work with me we will not only talk things through, but I will help you listen to the messages that your body is sending, and we can tackle your issues in an intentional and appropriate way. If you want to change harmful behaviours like smoking, drinking, or binge eating, I have well-tested programs that help with those issues. If you are prone to anxiety or depression, I can help you tap into your own inbuilt resources to get your emotional needs met and things will look very different. If you have unwanted habits like nail biting or doom scrolling, or just want to develop new healthy behaviours like exercising and eating right, I can help!
I treat you as the individual that you are, with your own thoughts, feelings, emotions, physical symptoms, hopes and dreams. I also look at the relationships, families and communities you belong to, and how these contribute to your daily wellbeing or affect your struggles.
I offer the Human Givens approach (the nine emotional needs), hypnotherapy (I have 18 years' experience), and Advanced Integrative Therapy (AIT) which is an energy psychology. My goal is to help you build emotional resilience, self-confidence, and encourage clear thinking. I provide materials, like mp3 recordings and handouts, to support you and reinforce the therapeutic work between sessions.
