Feeling anxious, overwhelmed or stuck in your thoughts?
Maybe your mind won’t switch off, your feelings overwhelm you or your life just isn't going the way you'd like.
You don’t have to figure this all out on your own.
I offer a calm, supportive space to talk things through, feel more at ease, and start to feel calmer, happier, and more in control.

How I Can Help
Many people I work with tell me they’ve been struggling for a long time before getting in touch.
You’ve likely tried your best to cope on your own. You’ve pushed through, kept going - but now you’ve hit a wall, and something needs to change.
You might even be thinking, “Why can’t I just deal with this on my own?”
I understand how big this step can feel. It’s scary reaching out - but it’s also the first step towards things feeling different to how they do right now.
You might be experiencing:
- Racing thoughts or constant overthinking
- Feeling anxious, on edge, or unable to relax
- Low mood, burnout, or emotional exhaustion
- Being overly self-critical or not feeling “good enough”
- Difficulties in relationships or communication
- Grief, loss, or unresolved emotions
- Feeling stuck, lost, or overwhelmed by life changes
What it’s like to work together
This the last hard part you do alone. Once you reach out, we face things together.
In our sessions, you don’t have to pretend or force a smile. You can talk openly and honestly, without worrying about being “too much.”
We’ll gently explore what you’ve been carrying, making sense of your thoughts, feelings, and experiences at your pace. Together, we can begin to understand the patterns that may be keeping you stuck, while finding new ways to help you feel calmer, clearer, and more in control.
Over time, this can help you feel more steady, more confident in yourself, and more able to cope with whatever life brings.
You don’t have to figure this all out by yourself.

Hello!
I’m Grace Parker, a Registered MBACP Integrative Counsellor, and I offer a calm, supportive space where you can talk openly and feel heard. My approach is warm and down-to-earth, and my work is guided by what feels most important to you, at a pace that feels right.
I offer counselling in Guildford, Haslemere and London, as well as online therapy for clients worldwide.
In our sessions, we'll explore patterns in your thoughts, feelings, or relationships, reflect on past experiences, or gently focus on what’s happening for you in the present. Sometimes it can be helpful to slow things down and notice what you’re experiencing in the moment, including how these things show up in your body through posture, aches, and gestures. At other times, we might use more creative ways of working to help you express or understand things that feel difficult to put into words, examples including story-telling, art and toys for example.
Each session is flexible. There’s no fixed agenda or expectation for how things should go. Instead, we follow what feels most useful for you that day - whether that’s making sense of something, gaining a new perspective, or simply having space to talk and feel heard.
I’ll meet you with warmth, honesty and a steady presence, offering a space where you can feel supported, understood, and able to be yourself.
I came to this work after experiencing the impact of therapy in my own life. During a difficult time, it helped me find clarity, confidence and a deeper understanding of myself. That experience stayed with me and encouraged me to complete my training so I could help support others find a a similar magic to the one I found.
I aim to offer a steady, non-judgemental space where you can feel safe to be yourself and take things at your own pace. My role is to support you in building awareness, finding clarity, and moving towards a happier, calmer life that makes sense for you.
Outside of work, I love writing (check out my blog!) spending time in nature, and relaxing with my cat, Penny - who fully believes she’s the real star of the show.

"Friday - Perfection. Saturday - Just as fun. But Sunday? Sunday comes with a ticking clock..."
Ever feel like Monday is chasing you? Maybe you stay up late despite the early start, or when you try to sleep instead of dreams you get anxious thoughts and a pounding heart. Sunday night can be hard - but it doesn't have to be.
