Trish Barton Psychotherapy

Psychotherapy and Counselling in Bristol

Welcome to my website...

My name is Trish Barton and I am a fully qualified and accredited UKCP registered psychotherapist and a member of BACP. I work in private practice in Bristol offering psychotherapy or counselling to individuals.

I run visualization workshops for groups and offer visualization sessions to individuals on a one-to-one basis. I also work for Bristol City Council Adult Learning Service on their Health and Well Being programme teaching Saturday workshops throughout the year. I am a supervisor for Bristol MIND.

So how can psychotherapy and counselling help?

Sometimes all we know is that we need some extra help and support. Psychotherapy and counselling can provide a safe place where you can explore any difficulties you may be experiencing. Talking things through can help you clarify how you feel, where you are and where you want to go. Spending time to stop and take stock can open up other possibilities to you as you gain a deeper understanding of yourself.

The difference between psychotherapy and counselling

People often ask what is the difference between psychotherapy and counselling. Counselling tends to be a shorter term therapy and more problem focussed. Psychotherapy generally takes longer and will include exploring the past, the personality and any patterns which are limiting your enjoyment of life.
