ABOUT JULIA BRIGHT

postgrad in psychology and qualified counsellor.

I believe that understanding and accepting yourself is one of the keys to lasting happiness. This isn’t about boundless self-love or ignoring reality — it’s about self-care, self-respect, and learning to make peace with your imperfections, whether real or imagined.

With a background in language teaching, a postgraduate degree in psychology, and professional counselling qualifications, I offer a compassionate, tailored approach to support you.

I listen carefully and work with you to gain deeper insight into who you are, helping you shift perspective and develop practical tools to live a more fulfilled and meaningful life.

Areas I can help with include: Anxiety, Low self-esteem, Obesity and weight loss, Relationship difficulties, Cultural adaptation and identity and much more…

I’ll always take time to assess whether I’m the right person to support you. If I feel your situation would be better addressed by someone else, I’ll refer you to trusted colleagues who specialise in more complex or specific areas.

Your wellbeing is my priority, and I want to make sure you receive the most appropriate support. Sometimes that means working together, and sometimes it means connecting you with someone better suited to your needs. Either way, I’m here to help you take the next step with clarity and confidence.

I understand that reaching out for help can feel daunting — which is why I aim to create a safe, non-judgemental space from the very beginning. It’s important to me that you feel seen and heard, whether we work together or I guide you toward another path.

My approach is rooted in honesty, care and collaboration. I want you to feel empowered in your choices, and supported in whatever direction your journey takes.
