Counselling and Psychotherapy in Bristol

Do you wake up in the morning with a knot in your stomach? Did it used to subside as the morning worn on, but now it stays the whole day? Do you feel that, somehow, but you're not sure how, things just aren't quite right? Yet you don't really know what it is that would make them feel right? Or perhaps you do - and you aren't sure how to get there.

My name is Collean Evans-de Souza, and I run a practice called Vine House Counselling in Bristol. I have been working with individuals and groups in the area of personal development since 1989. I am committed to providing counselling and psychotherapy in a safe, confidential and non-judgemental environment.

I work collaboratively with both individuals and couples on an open-ended basis or for an agreed time period. My aim as a counsellor and psychotherapist is to help you enhance your life and live it more fully, through the solution-focused approaches of CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) and Systemic Therapy. In addition to in-depth training and experience, I believe that the quality of the therapeutic relationship plays a central role in the outcomes you achieve.

In addition to individual therapy and couples counselling, I offer family therapy and group therapy. I also offer life coaching, drawing on my own personal experience of progressing from community development to management and organisational development to working as a qualified counsellor and psychotherapist.

Examples of my areas of clinical experience and training include:

  • Stress
  • Relationships
  • Panic Attacks
  • Anxiety
  • Bereavement
  • Redundancy
  • Depression
  • Anger

    If you are struggling with issues, such as anxiety, depression or anger, that you feel are stopping you from achieving the life you want, then please phone me. We can discuss your needs and explore more fully how we can work together in a way that will enable you to feel, be and act according to your idea of the person you really are. With my training in areas in addition to CBT and systemic therapy, my way of working is tailored to each client, rather than the client being tailored to the therapy.
