Depression
Depression is more than just feeling sad or going through a rough patch. It is a serious mental health condition that affects how you think, feel, and handle daily activities. It can cause feelings of hopelessness, loss of interest in things once enjoyed, changes in sleep patterns, and difficulty concentrating.
Our services are designed to provide support and treatment for individuals experiencing depression. Whether you’re dealing with mild symptoms or more severe cases, we offer tailored approaches including CBT, Person – Centred, Psychodynamic and mindfulness therapies. Our goal is to help you regain control, find relief, and improve your overall well-being.
If you or someone you know is struggling with depression, don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re here to help guide you through this challenging time.
Anxiety
Anxiety is a natural response to stress, but when it becomes overwhelming or persistent, it can interfere with daily life. Common symptoms include excessive worry, restlessness, difficulty concentrating, and physical signs like rapid heartbeat or muscle tension. Anxiety can manifest in various forms, such as generalised anxiety disorder (GAD), social anxiety, panic attacks, or phobias.
At Axiom , we offer a safe and supportive environment to help you manage anxiety effectively. Our experienced therapists use evidence-based treatments, such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, hypnotherapy and relaxation techniques, tailored to your individual needs. These therapies aim to help you understand and challenge the patterns of thought that fuel anxiety, reduce symptoms, and develop healthy coping mechanisms.
No matter where you are on your journey with anxiety, we’re here to support you with compassionate care and practical solutions. Reach out today to take the first step towards feeling more in control of your mind and body.
Addiction
Addiction is a complex condition that affects both the mind and body. It often begins with the desire to cope with stress, trauma, or emotional pain, but over time, it can lead to compulsive behaviour and a sense of loss of control. Whether it’s substance abuse (drugs, alcohol) or behavioural addictions (gambling, internet, etc.), the impact on one’s life can be profound—affecting relationships, health, work, and overall well-being.
We understand that addiction is not a failure of willpower but a challenging condition that requires care and support. Our approach to addiction treatment is compassionate, confidential, and tailored to your unique situation. We offer a range of therapeutic options, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and group or individual counselling. Our goal is to help you break the cycle of addiction, address the underlying issues, and build lasting recovery.
Whether you’re seeking help for yourself or a loved one, we are here to guide you on the journey toward healing and freedom from addiction. Take the first step today—reach out to learn more about how we can support you.
Self-Esteem Issues
Self-esteem refers to the way we see and value ourselves. When we struggle with low self-esteem, it can affect every aspect of our lives, from relationships and career to overall mental well-being. Common signs include constant self-criticism, feelings of inadequacy, fear of failure, and difficulty accepting compliments or achievements. These patterns can often stem from past experiences, negative thinking, or societal pressures, leading to a diminished sense of self-worth.
At Axiom, we understand how deeply self-esteem issues can impact your daily life. Our therapeutic approach focuses on helping you develop a more positive and realistic view of yourself. Through evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), self-compassion exercises, and mindfulness techniques, we help you challenge negative self-beliefs, build confidence, and foster self-acceptance.
Everyone deserves to feel confident and secure in who they are. If low self-esteem is holding you back, we’re here to support you on your journey towards building a healthier, more empowered sense of self.
Attachment Issues and Styles
Attachment refers to the emotional bond we form with others, particularly in childhood. The way we attach to caregivers can shape our relationships throughout life. When attachment styles become insecure or unhealthy, they can lead to challenges in forming and maintaining meaningful connections. Common attachment styles include:
- Secure Attachment: Feeling safe and comfortable in relationships.
- Anxious Attachment: Fear of abandonment, needing constant reassurance.
- Avoidant Attachment: Avoiding closeness and emotional intimacy.
- Disorganised Attachment: A mix of anxious and avoidant behaviours, often due to trauma or inconsistent caregiving.
If you’re struggling with attachment issues, you may find it difficult to trust others, maintain boundaries, or feel secure in relationships. These patterns often stem from early life experiences but can also be influenced by adult relationships.
At Axiom, we specialise in helping individuals understand and heal from attachment-related issues. Through therapy, such as Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and trauma-informed approaches, we work together to explore the root causes of attachment difficulties. Our goal is to help you build healthier, more secure relationships with others and yourself.
Whether you experience anxiety in relationships or tend to withdraw emotionally, we provide compassionate support to help you break free from unhealthy patterns and foster deeper connections.
Interpersonal Relationships
Interpersonal relationships are the connections we form with others, whether with family, friends, colleagues, or romantic partners. These relationships are vital to our well-being but can sometimes be sources of stress, conflict, or emotional pain. Challenges such as communication breakdowns, unresolved conflicts, trust issues, or unhealthy dynamics can make it difficult to maintain healthy and fulfilling relationships.
At Axiom, we offer therapy designed to help you improve your interpersonal relationships. Our approach focuses on identifying patterns in your interactions, understanding your emotional needs, and developing healthier communication skills. We use a range of therapeutic techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Interpersonal Therapy (IPT), to help you build stronger, more supportive connections.
Whether you’re dealing with conflict in your personal life, difficulty connecting with others, or want to enhance your relationships, we’re here to guide you. Together, we can work to resolve relationship challenges and help you create more meaningful, positive connections.
Child and Young Person Issues
Children and young people face a wide range of emotional, behavioural, and developmental challenges as they grow. These can include anxiety, depression, bullying, low self-esteem, difficulties with school, peer pressure, family conflict, or adjusting to life changes such as divorce or loss. Sometimes these issues are expressed through mood swings, withdrawal, defiance, or academic struggles, which can be concerning for parents or caregivers.
At Axiom, we offer specialised therapy for children and young people, tailored to their unique needs and developmental stage. Our therapeutic approaches are designed to create a safe, nurturing environment where young people can explore their emotions, learn coping strategies, and develop resilience. We use methods such as play therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and psychodynamic to address a variety of issues, helping children and teens express themselves and overcome their difficulties in a way that feels natural to them.
Our goal is to support both the child and their family in understanding and addressing the challenges they face, while fostering emotional growth and well-being. If your child or teen is struggling, we’re here to provide compassionate guidance and effective treatment.
LGBTQ+ Issues
Individuals who identify as LGBTQ+ may face unique challenges related to their sexual orientation or gender identity. These can include discrimination, social rejection, family conflict, and internalised shame, which may lead to anxiety, depression, trauma, or low self-esteem. Navigating these issues while also embracing one’s identity can be overwhelming, especially without support from friends, family, or society.
At Axiom, we are committed to providing a safe, affirming space where LGBTQ+ individuals can explore their feelings, overcome personal challenges, and celebrate their identities. Our therapists are experienced in addressing issues such as coming out, gender dysphoria, relationship concerns, minority stress, and the emotional toll of discrimination. We use evidence-based therapeutic approaches, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care Person-Centred and Psychodynamic, to help you build resilience, self-acceptance, and emotional well-being.
We understand that everyone’s journey is unique, and we are here to support you with empathy, respect, and expertise. Whether you’re seeking help for mental health concerns, relationship issues, or simply want a therapist who understands the complexities of LGBTQ+ experiences, we’re here to walk with you every step of the way.
