Emma Poxon
Counsellor/Therapist, MA Person-Centred Experiential Counselling
Bipolar can feel completely overwhelming, like there's no way out. As your therapist I am here to be with you, reminding you that you are not alone. We can explore how bipolar feels for you, when it is at its worst, and help you to gain more of a sense of control over this. You are not a problem to be fixed, my aim as your therapist is to try to provide the right conditions to allow you to explore whatever you want to bring to therapy to support your growth. This isn't a therapeutic approach wherein I will set a treatment plan or tell you what to do. We will work together as a partnership rather than me taking away your autonomy. I absolutely love the work I do, it is the biggest privilege being let into people’s personal worlds and seeing the immense growth of my clients. I hope to hear from you soon!

Dr Paul Garden
Psychologist, Doctorate in Psychology, DPsych, MSc with Distinction, BSc First Class Honours.
Medical diagnostic terms such as 'Bipolar Disorder' are now used quite frequently in everyday conversation. I often work with people who have experiences of themselves as sometimes feeling very low and hopeless, and at other times feeling powerful and as if they can do anything. Managing these polar opposite moods can be exhausting and destructive.

Samantha Coleman
Therapist, MBACP Prof Dip
Bipolar disorder can have a profound effect on your emotions, relationships, self-esteem, identity, and sense of stability. The shifts between depression, elevated mood, impulsivity, anxiety, irritability, or emotional intensity can be exhausting, frightening, and difficult to manage. My approach is warm, supportive, and non-judgemental. It is less about labels and diagnoses, and more about understanding your inner world: your emotions, patterns, needs, relationships, fears, strengths, and life experiences. Together, we can make your patterns clearer, recognise early signs of change, and help life feel more manageable and stable. I know that receiving a diagnosis can sometimes be both validating and overwhelming. It can explain a lot, but it should never define you. What matters most is helping you understand yourself more deeply, feel more in control, and avoid identifying with labels in ways that leave you feeling trapped or hopeless.
