Individual Therapy
VIVA Counselling & Psychotherapy
Many people come to therapy because they are exhausted from carrying things on their own.
You may be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected from yourself, or caught in patterns that no longer serve you. Perhaps you have spent years putting everyone else first, questioning yourself, or simply trying to get through each day.
At VIVA Counselling & Psychotherapy, we offer online individual therapy for adults seeking a space to understand themselves more deeply, navigate life's challenges, and create meaningful change.
Our therapists work from a person-centred, neuroaffirmative and LGBTQ+ affirmative perspective, creating a warm, non-judgemental space where you can explore whatever brings you to therapy.
When life feels difficult
People seek therapy for many reasons, including:
Anxiety and worry
Low self-esteem and self-doubt
Stress and burnout
ADHD and neurodivergence
Relationship difficulties
Life transitions and uncertainty
Feeling stuck or lost
Difficult experiences from the past
You do not need to be in crisis to benefit from therapy.
Sometimes people come because they want support through a difficult period. Others come because they want to understand themselves better and create lasting change.
How individual therapy can help
Therapy can support you to:
Understand yourself more deeply
Develop greater self-compassion
Manage anxiety and overwhelm
Build confidence and self-worth
Navigate relationships more effectively
Make sense of difficult experiences
Feel more connected to who you are
Therapy is not about being given advice or being told what to do. It is about creating space to explore your experiences, discover new perspectives, and find your own way forward.
ADHD, neurodivergence and therapy
All of our therapists have experience supporting neurodivergent clients, including people with ADHD and autism.
You may be struggling with:
Emotional overwhelm
Rejection sensitivity
Masking and exhaustion
Organisation and executive functioning challenges
Feeling misunderstood by others
Self-criticism and shame
We work from a neuroaffirmative perspective that recognises neurodivergence as a difference rather than a deficit, helping you understand yourself with greater compassion and clarity.
What to expect in therapy
Individual therapy offers a confidential and supportive space where you can speak openly about whatever is important to you.
You can expect:
A warm, non-judgemental environment
A therapist who listens carefully and thoughtfully
Space to explore your thoughts, feelings and experiences
Support to understand patterns and challenges
A pace that feels right for you
Therapy tailored to your individual needs
Our approach
At VIVA Therapy, we believe that people already hold the potential for growth and change within them.
Our role is not to provide answers, but to walk alongside you as you make sense of your experiences and discover what feels right for you.
Our therapists combine professional expertise with genuine human connection, creating a space where you can feel understood, accepted, and supported.
