Integrative Psychotherapist: Emily Godwin

Emily Godwin

Deciding to seek therapy can feel like a daunting experience for many people. You may have experienced something painful in life and feel clear about your current concerns, or you may feel lost, stuck or misunderstood but don’t understand why.Emily Godwin

You may not know how you feel or what your difficulties are but have a general sense that something doesn’t feel right. I can meet you where you are and help you to make sense of your experience. Together we will try to understand what feels distressing and explore what is meaningful to you so that you can engage with life more fully.

Training and experience

I am a registered Psychotherapist based in Bristol, offering therapy in person and online. I hold full clinical membership with the UKCP and have over 10 years’ experience working with a range of emotional and psychological difficulties within the NHS, universities, and community health settings.

I am also in the final stage of a Doctorate in Counselling Psychology and Psychotherapy (DCPsych). I have completed all clinical and taught elements of the programme and will be eligible to register as a Chartered Psychologist following my research viva in 2026.

Approach to therapy

I work from a relational, integrative perspective, which means I am trained in a range of different modalities including: psychodynamic, cognitive behavioural, existential, humanistic and trauma-informed approaches. Therapy may involve exploring thoughts, feelings or patterns that have developed in your relationships and the ways these may be affecting how you currently relate to yourself and others. It can be helpful to explore different areas of your experience, including emotions or parts of yourself that may have been difficult to acknowledge, so that they become more understandable and less likely to emerge in ways that feel unexpected or difficult to manage. Therapy will look different for each person, as our work will depend on your own circumstances and individual needs.

Counselling Psychologist: Dr Beth Winter

Dr Beth Winter May 2026

I’m Dr Beth Winter, a Counselling Psychologist registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC). I work in accordance with its professional and ethical standards.Dr Beth Winter May 2026

Approach to therapy

My clients come from a wide range of backgrounds and seek therapy for many different reasons. Whether that’s working through a traumatic experience, navigating life transitions or needing dedicated time in their week to connect with themselves.

Whatever it is that brings you here, you are most welcome.

My approach to psychotherapy is integrative, prioritising the therapeutic relationship as the foundation for effective therapy. I aim to build a strong and supportive connection with you, tailoring my approach to suit your unique needs.

I will bring curiosity, compassion and challenge to our sessions, without judgment.

I am interested in your life story, and use narrative and embodied methods to co-create a space which feels safe and ready for you to explore.

Training and experience

I have trained in humanistic, psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioural (CBT), EMDR and systemic models of therapy.

Alongside my private practice, I have worked in the NHS, in mental health charities, such as Tavistock Relationships, and as a lecturer and research fellow at UWE Bristol.

My philosophy

Struggles are situated socially, not just individually. It’s important to acknowledge power and the wider systems we inhabit.

Being human means we all encounter periods of distress, uncertainty and pain. These may manifest for us as anxiety, sadness, anger, confusion, disconnection or feeling stuck.

Finding the right support can be transformative; it helps us move forward in life.

Integrative Counsellor: Miranda Lovelock

Miranda Lovelock

I am an integrative counsellor with a Master’s in Counselling and Psychotherapy and registered with the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP) and The National Counselling & PsychotherapyMiranda Lovelock Society (Accred) .

Integrative counselling means I combine different therapeutic theories and tailor them to your unique needs. Sometimes, I draw on creative processes and interventions focusing on your feelings and the world around you.

I understand that life can be overwhelming.

Maybe you feel confused and isolated, weighed down by working life, complex thoughts or emotions, demotivated or experiencing low self-esteem from relationship and work pressures. You might find yourself repeating old patterns of behaviour or lost about the direction in your life.

The connection between you, as the client, and your therapist serves as a window into your broader relationships and can offer insights into your life’s connections. Still, it’s crucial to recognise that you are not alone. I appreciate the significance of childhood experiences and their potential to remain hidden, only to resurface later in life.

My approach is firmly rooted in humanistic, psychodynamic and Gestalt principles. I aim to provide a compassionate and trauma-informed environment, inviting you to delve into your feelings, emotions, and underlying issues without fear of criticism or judgment.

Throughout the therapy, we can gain new insight into the dynamic interplay between your past and present, facilitating a deeper understanding of your current experiences and behaviours underpinned by empathy and offering you space to share your feelings and thoughts safely.

This process strongly emphasises fostering a trusting and supportive therapeutic relationship, always moving at a comfortable pace for you, which has been proven to be integral to making positive change.

Relational Integrative Therapist: Irina Iosub MBACP DipHIC LL.M (she/her)

Irina Iosub January 2023

You may appear to cope well on the outside while feeling increasingly overwhelmed, disconnected or emotionally exhausted underneath. Perhaps you’re used to carrying a lot on your own, struggling in relationships, or quietly wondering whether life is supposed to feel this heavy.
Irina Iosub January 2023

I work with people navigating anxiety, burnout, relationship difficulties, low self-worth, overthinking, emotional overwhelm, life transitions, infidelity and painful relationship endings. Some clients come feeling disconnected from themselves, unsure how to slow down without guilt, or sensing that something important has been lost along the way.

My approach is relational, compassionate and tailored to you. Together, we might explore the deeper patterns shaping your emotions, relationships and sense of self, while also making space for what’s happening in the present moment – in your thoughts, feelings and body.

Beyond quick psychological explanations or self-help formulas promising healing, therapy with me offers something different: an attuned human relationship where you can begin to understand yourself more deeply, loosen old patterns, and feel more connected to yourself, your relationships and your life.

Before training as a therapist, I worked in the legal profession and later within NHS settings. These experiences gave me insight into the pressures of high-responsibility environments, performance-driven cultures, and the emotional cost of constantly holding things together.

I hold a Diploma in Integrative and Humanistic Counselling and Psychotherapy, have completed Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) training through Oxford, and am a registered member of the BACP, working within their ethical framework.

I offer counselling in Bristol and online, both short-term and open-ended.

Fees

Individual counselling sessions: £60
Online and in-person sessions available

Introductory session

I offer a free online 30-minute introductory session where we can talk about what brings you to therapy and get a sense of whether working together feels right for you. After the introductory session, you can take some time to reflect and then if we feel like a good fit, we can begin with 6 sessions and review things together from there.

You’re welcome to get in touch by email to arrange an initial conversation or ask any questions at: irina@irinacounselling.co.uk or visit my website www.irinacounselling.co.uk
