Psychotherapy & Counselling
Psychotherapy and counselling in Chesham & Amersham
I’m Julie McHugh, a UKCP-accredited psychotherapist offering counselling and psychotherapy for adults and couples in Chesham, Berkhamsted and online. I welcome clients from Amersham, Berkhamsted, Hemel Hempstead and the surrounding areas of Buckinghamshire and Hertfordshire
You may be facing a particular difficulty, struggling in a relationship, or feeling that something isn’t quite right without knowing why. I offer a compassionate, non-judgemental space where you can talk openly, feel heard and explore what is happening at your own pace.
Support with life’s difficulties
Life is not always easy. Sometimes it can feel incredibly difficult. Maybe you are suffering from anxiety, depression or you are feeling sad and don't really understand why. Maybe there are relationships issues that are problematic for you. Other common problems that bring people to therapy are family issues, post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), addictions and problems around separation and divorce. Whether you have a specific problem you want to work on or a more general unease with yourself or your life I offer a safe, empathic, non-judgemental space where you can be fully heard and acknowledged and we can work together on your problems.
I offer both short term counselling where we would focus on a specific problem or longer term, psychotherapy that explores the deeper, more unconscious patterns that may be making life difficult. I work with both individuals and couples.
Couples counselling
When communication becomes difficult or you feel disconnected from your partner, it can be hard to know how to move forward.
I am an experienced couples counsellor and offer a supportive space for both of you to talk, listen and explore what is happening in your relationship. We can work together to understand recurring difficulties, express your needs more clearly and consider the changes you can make to transform your relationship..
Sessions in Chesham and online
I offer face-to-face sessions in Chesham and Potten End, welcoming people from nearby Amersham, Berkhamsted, Hemel Hempstead and the surrounding Buckinghamshire and Hertfordshire areas.
Online sessions are also available if you prefer to meet remotely or find it difficult to attend in person. Working online by Zoom means therapy is accessible wherever you are in the UK or abroad.
