Alison Mackiewicz - Psychotherapist (Transactional Analysis) in clinical training at Transactional Analysis Cymru
Hello, I am Alison and I provide confidential therapy in a quiet rural setting in Ceredigion. I hold a diploma in counselling as well as training as a psychotherapist at TAC.
My approach puts your needs first. I will provide you with space and time to be heard and to feel supported in a co-created, safe, empathic and non-judgemental way. We will work together to explore your situation and the difficulties you are struggling with, and we will work at a pace which feels appropriate for you.
As part of your journey, we will figure out ways for you to live with greater ease and learn from your life challenges in a way that best suits you as an individual.
My ongoing specialist psychotherapy training is in Transactional Analysis. I choose this way of working because it helps to explain, in simple terms, why we think, feel and behave in the way we do. It is a talking therapy and is very versatile; in our sessions, we would explore your personality and how this has been shaped by experience, alongside how you communicate and what interaction might be needed for a better outcome.
Sessions can be in the form of counselling which is brief and solution focused, or psychotherapy, which adopts a long-term, in-depth therapy approach. These sessions would be in a one-to-one context, and can be in person or online. We would use our first sessions to examine what it is you are looking for and for you to decide if I am the right person for you to work with. Sessions work best when they are regular, so we will commit to meeting regularly, ideally weekly, and I offer both short and long-term therapy. As such, clients work with me for a few months, some for a number of years.
I have gained experience of working with a number of issues including anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, trauma, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), eating disorders, alcohol and drug problems, and relationship difficulties.
I hold a diploma in counselling from Transactional Analysis Cymru. I a registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and the UK and European Associations for Transactional Analysis (UKATA; EATA) and work to their ethical guidelines. I receive regular supervision and ongoing training with Transactional Analysis Cymru.
I practice in Ceredigion and can offer online and phone sessions as well.
Fees £45 per 1 hour session.

Rachel Knight – Psychotherapist (Transactional Analysis) in Clinical Training at Transactional Analysis Cymru
We can all experience times in our lives when we feel that the demands of life are too much for us to cope with. This can result in us feeling depressed, anxious or overwhelmed. These challenges often bring up feelings from our past which impact our relationships. Therapy allows you the space and time to explore and bring awareness to your patterns of behaving and relating to yourself and others. The supportive, trusting relationship between us is an important part of our work together as we reflect on thoughts, feelings and behaviours and seek awareness, relief and the opportunity to live a more satisfying and fulfilling life.
It takes courage to seek the help of a counsellor and as I found out through my own experience, can often be a difficult and challenging process. The awareness it has given me has helped me to better understand myself and others and as a result, enabled me to move closer to living an authentic, free and satisfying life. It is my personal interest in how we communicate and relate to each other, along with my own experience of the effectiveness of therapy, which has led to me wanting to support others who may be experiencing challenges in their lives.
I provide a warm, safe and compassionate space where you can talk freely and confidentially about the difficulties you are experiencing and the issues you would like to work through with the aim of working towards resolution, healing and growth.
Our first session together is an opportunity for us to explore the issues you would like to bring to therapy and see if counselling is the right option for you. At the end of the session, I hope we can agree a course of action together. During our work, I will be guided by you in deciding the pace and direction of the therapy. My therapeutic work is founded on the belief that you hold the answers to your questions within you and that decisions can be changed. By listening to you in an empathic and non-judgemental manner, I create an environment in which you will feel heard and validated which opens up the possibility of healing and growth. My training allows me to use a range of therapeutic options so that I can design a treatment plan which can help you make the changes that you want in your life.
I am based just outside of Haverfordwest and mainly work on a Monday and Friday.
Appointments available from January 2020.
Charges are £35 for 50 minutes.
You can contact me on 07776205722 or by emailing rachelknight120@btinternet.com

Josie Coggins - Diploma in Counselling using Transactional Analysis
Psychotherapist (Transactional Analysis) in Clinical Training at Transactional Analysis Cymru.
Many of us in this fast paced, isolating world suffer from anxiety, low mood, depression, anger issues and unsatisfactory relationships. I believe that our true selves are perfect and that as a result of childhood experience, cultural conditioning and other traumatic events, this true self gets buried under a range of survival strategies. I also don’t believe we are designed to deal with this on our own and each of us can benefit from appropriate support.
I feel I have been uncovering my true self for the past 15 years through therapy and therapeutic training and have experienced deeply the benefit of 1 to 1 support, particularly Transactional Analysis therapy (TA). I now feel I understand my unique behaviours, where they came from, when they appear and how best to support myself when they arise. This is an ongoing journey, and one I am passionate about sharing with others through my work.
My background is community arts, theatre and movement and I trained as a Play Therapist with Play Therapy UK, Forum Theatre practitioner and Emotional Education specialist working with children, young people and vulnerable adults both in groups and 1 to 1 with all age ranges.
I am now in Clinical Training as a TA psychotherapist and am expanding my work to offer therapeutic support to Adults.
I offer a non-judgemental, empathic approach believing that you have the key to your wellbeing, you are completely OK and I can offer a safe space to help you uncover and explore this on your journey to better health and happiness.
I work in the Cardigan area and my prices are £40 - £60 an hour with Adults as part of my supervised Clinical Training.
Please get in touch for an initial chat free of charge on emotionwise@hotmail.com and 07807 832807

Abi Giles - Psychotherapist (Transactional Analysis) in Clinical Training at Transactional Analysis Cymru.
If you have ended up on this page because you are struggling and in need of some support well done! - It takes immense courage to take this step. If it is your intention to begin counselling or psychotherapy then I am here to help you on that journey.
Sometimes life can become overwhelming and not make much sense; we can find ourselves with lots of questions that we are unable to answer on our own.
That is OK, and you are OK.
I can offer guidance in finding those answers, together we can begin a relationship, to safely explore what has been going on for you, in a nurturing, non-judgemental way.
You may find yourself re-experiencing patterns, feelings, thoughts and behaviours that are no longer serving you.
You might feel stuck in these and unable to see a way to change them.
I am here to introduce you to a way of thinking that will help you understand, and if change is something you want, support you in that.
I feel that counselling is an integral part of a healthy lifestyle and something to be proud of.
I am creative and energetic and try to create opportunity for freedom and permission. From working as an artist for the past 11 years, I can see the true value in exploration through creativity and invite this in my clinical work.
I have worked as a youth worker for 10 years before retraining as a therapist in which I can draw upon valuable experience. It was through my own therapeutic journey that I became aware of my passion for Transactional Analysis. Realising that change was possible enabled me to want to help others on their own therapeutic paths. I am inspired by growth and possibility.

Gina Simeonova - Psychotherapist (Transactional Analysis) in Clinical Training at Transactional Analysis Cymru.
Relationship trouble, existential crisis, or just a desire to know who you truly are. Reach out and talk it through!
Anxiety, depression, grief, anger, trauma, addiction – they can be part of our life. When we go through them alone or during challenging times, they may overwhelm us.
In counselling, we may explore together how past patterns are keeping you trapped in places of difficulty and unhelpfully impacting aspects of your life such as relationships, beliefs or behaviours. We may talk, listen, and pay attention to any physical sensations which are not quite understood – the so called intuitive ‘gut’ feelings. You may also choose to remain silent, or perhaps explore how forbidden anger might be pointing to a neglected need. You may ask lots of questions and may even find answers to some of them. Most importantly, I aim to build a trusting and respectful relationship with you. Within this space, mind and body can work together and guide you onto the path of self-discovery and fulfilment.
I first experienced psychotherapy during my own difficult journey of relationship struggles and the breakdown of my first marriage. Therapy was a lifeline for me then, and at present it has a profound impact on my awareness and on the way I see myself, others and world.
I initially trained as an economist and statistician, and my job background is in business management, wholesaling and recruitment. My journey to becoming a therapist began in 2007, when I decided to study psychology at the Open University. I have been volunteering as a bereavement counsellor with Cruse Bereavement Care since 2012, where I practice a person-centred approach. I have been passionate about the ‘I’m OK, You’re OK’ core value of Transactional Analysis since I first read about it in my late teens.
If you choose to work with me, we will begin with an assessment session in which we will decide how we’re going to work together, and I will then aim to offer you regular weekly sessions. If you need more details about our confidentiality agreement or written contract, or if you would like to arrange an assessment session, please give me a call.
I practice in Bristol and I also offer Zoom sessions.
My fees are: £35 for a 1-hour session.

Holly Young - Psychotherapist (Transactional Analysis) in Clinical Training at Transactional Analysis Cymru.
If you're experiencing challenges in your life that need help to understand or unpick you're not alone.
Therapy can untangle repeating patterns of negative behavior that no longer work for us and may be causing friction in our relationships.
I offer a therapeutic space in which I believe that you and I are fundamentally OK.
I see the repeating negative patterns as defences we developed as a child to help us to be accepted or protected in our families and by others. These behaviours add protective layers that, with support, we can test for their relevance in the here and now of your life. Together, we can decide if they still serve you.
My work is relational and co-creative. This means I believe it is through the relationship that change can happen. It also means that I believe that therapy is a joint endeavour.
Through my work as a birth doula I developed a great interest in how our bodies hold trauma and how it impacts us. This interest in body work and the somatic experience started my own journey in therapy and training in Transactional Analysis.
My experience and expertise are in:
If you would like to have an initial session I'd be very happy to hear from you.

I charge £35 for 1 hour

Lisa Woodin - qualified counsellor and trainee psychotherapist (Transactional Analysis) at TAC
“Difficult roads often lead to beautiful destinations” (anon)
People seek counselling for a wide range of reasons, but what’s certain is that we’ve all experienced travelling down a difficult road. Regardless of where you are on your journey, as a counsellor, my job is to provide a safe space for you to explore difficulties and progress confidently in the direction that you choose.
I am a qualified integrative therapist and a member of the BACP who has been working in frontline services for over fifteen years. I am also currently training as a Transactional Analysis psychotherapist and use lots of transactional analysis theory in my work. I have experience in working with numerous difficulties including anxiety, depression, sleep difficulties, difficulties with motivation, domestic abuse, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, stress and much more.
Over the last five years much of my work has been with adults with autism and ADHD. I have a deep understanding of the inherent difficulties that neuro-diverse people experience and am also able to support people to recognise the wonderful gifts that neurodiversity brings.
In therapy I will provide a space for you to share and explore your feelings where I will listen attentively and with compassion. You might want to explore your past or current situation or make goals for yourself to maintain your current and future emotional wellbeing. I take a flexible approach in my work and am comfortable with exploring emotions through art, music, and the outdoors as well as through talking. I have worked in the voluntary sector with homeless people, in domestic abuse services, and also the higher education sector with students with mental health conditions. I passionately believe in therapy and that therapeutic work can change lives.

Chdel Cooke - Psychotherapist (Transactional Analysis) in Clinical Training at Transactional Analysis Cymru.
Welcome! My therapy practice is called Free To Be Me.
When we get right down to it, I think that this is what we all yearn for: freedom to be 'comfortable in our skin', knowing and appreciating who we are, living our lives and having relationships that bring us satisfaction, peace and joy.
We want to know ourselves, to discover and befriend ourselves. Have the confidence and ability to take the lead role in our own story. To remain true to our values. To embrace change with optimism and hope. To be connected to those we love and respect and who in turn value us for who we really are, not just a social construct. Yet somehow, all too often, freedom to be oneself feels just out of reach. Why is that?
Perhaps you are wondering what kind of people come to therapy? The answer is easy; it's the wise ones, the brave ones.
A therapist is different from a friend for several reasons. While we are definitely on your team, we are also separate and bring a new perspective. We also bring our skill and training and use this to assist you in clarifying your issue and how to go forward.
Transactional Analysis (TA) is an elegant, tried and tested model of psychotherapy. I have benefited hugely from TA psychotherapy myself. I am regularly impressed to see TA bring about understanding and change in my client's perceptions of their situation, leading to growth and greater autonomy.
I offer a non-judgemental, welcoming, confidential, empathetic space and hope you will join me there.
I work with people who are experiencing difficulty in areas which include:
I love spoken word performances, storytelling, music and drama and have a degree in Creative Writing. Throughout my working life, I have used these interests to communicate and engage with people in ways that catch their interest.
My practice is on the Pembrokeshire/Carmarthenshire border in a beautiful rural village. However, while we remain in flux regarding Covid-19, all appointments are on Zoom. Once things open up long term, I hope to offer walking therapy and face-to-face therapy sessions.
I am a member of UKATA and ITAA, the professional bodies for Transactional Analysts.
Please email me at contact@f2bm.uk (f2bm is short for Free To Be Me) to set up an appointment to discuss your needs.
I aim to reply to your email within 48 hours, excluding weekends. In addition, I will send you a copy of my business contract for you to consider in advance.
I charge £35 per hour for working with individuals
I charge £55 per hour for working with couples
I prefer to work with weekly sessions.
I look forward to meeting you.
