Mind Your Future

Cognitive Behavioural Coach 

I’m Leanne Astbury, a Psychotherapist dedicated to guiding you beyond symptom management to uncover and address the real reasons behind your challenges.

Drawing from my personal experiences and years of helping others, I’ve come to understand that issues like anxiety, depression, perfectionism, overthinking, worry, and stress are not the real problems—they’re just symptoms. To achieve lasting results, we must focus on addressing the root causes, not just treating these symptoms.

As a therapist, my priority is to support individuals in recognising and tackling the root causes of their challenges, for life changing outcomes.

Your time to be heard

... a place to be heard

 I’m a warm and friendly counsellor in Northwich working with a range of issues including abuse, PTSD and suicidal thoughts. You don't need to face things alone, together we can find a way forward.

 

People seek counselling for many different reasons. Whatever the reason you have found my website, I hope that you find what you need.

Tranquil Oak

Hi, my name is Gordon. I'm a psychotherapist working in private practice based in the Northwest of England.

My clients often ask about different mental health problems and which resources may be useful for them to use. I created this site to provide them an easy place to come to find the information they are interested in.

​

I am classically trained in Humanistic therapies but have experience in a wide range of other techniques including CBT, Creative therapies and Compassion based therapies.

Hi, I’m Lucy. I’m a person-centred counsellor with eight years of experience working within Adult Mental Health Services prior to qualifying as a counsellor. I offer a warm, safe space to anyone who feels they need room to explore where they are in life and to work alongside you while you process any historical or current challenges or issues you may be experiencing.

I provide a non-judgemental environment, where support will be offered to you as we explore together anything which may feel too overwhelming to face on your own. As a person-centred counsellor I am fully committed to the belief we are all the experts in our own world, however, that doesn’t mean we have to navigate those worlds alone, and hopefully, I can ease that feeling for you, supporting you on your journey.

I work with anyone aged 18+, offering both face-to-face work and online or telephone remote sessions if this is more accessible for you.

Hi, I’m Tumay. I am an EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) practitioner.

What is EFT?

EFT is a blend of modern Psychology, Chinese medicine and Neuroplasticity (the capacity of the brain to change and rewire itself in response to the stimulation of learning and experience).

 

We use talk therapy with the help of the body’s meridian system to reprogram our brain. We tap on acupuncture points while addressing your issues. This enables us to heal from traumas and adopt positive beliefs and behaviour patterns.
