I am a UKCP registered integrative psychotherapist and counsellor with 8 years experience working with clients across a broad range of issues including trauma, domestic abuse, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, bereavement (including loss of a beloved pet), and adverse childhood attachment experiences. My relational approach offers a confidential, warm, empathic and non-judgmental space for you to reflect on any areas of your life you may be struggling with. I have experience working for the NHS, the charity sector, secondary education, higher education and within a residential trauma clinic.

For me, therapy is about accepting my client as a unique human being, whose individual beliefs create distinctive characteristics that will inform what is needed for their therapy to be successful, and I draw upon a wide range of theories to fit the uniqueness of each individual client. Integrative psychotherapy embraces individuality and values the full range of levels of functioning including behavioural, cognitive, affective and physiological, as well as the spiritual dimension of life.

My special area of interest is how traumatic experiences can overwhelm us and get stuck in the body, leading to dysregulation of the nervous system. Through my Sensorimotor Psychotherapy for Trauma training, I will support you in tending to anxiety and depression to help regulate your nervous system to restore a capacity for active and appropriate defenses, and rediscover the capacity to relax, rest and fully engage in your life.

I will offer you an initial assessment session with the aim of understanding what has brought you to therapy and to explore what success may look like for you. I work on both a short and long-term basis, whichever suits your needs.


I adhere to the UKCP code of ethics and I maintain professional indemnity insurance.

I am a BACP registered counsellor and a neuroscientist. After working as a neuroscientist for over a decade researching on different states of consciousness, I trained as a Gestalt counsellor at the Gestalt Centre London and attended various workshops in Jungian dream analysis and body-oriented mindfulness-based energy therapy. In my counselling practice, I use an eclectic approach integrating all these modalities and my neuroscientific knowledge within a client-centred and relational therapeutic framework.

I believe that difficult experiences have the power to transform us if we can allow the feelings they bring up. Yet, we all may need support in this process. In my counselling practice, I aim to support my clients in their individual journey to their own unique authentic self.

I work with long and short term clients face to face at the Little Health Hub and online. I offer a free 30 minutes initial session for new clients for us to meet and discuss in which ways we can work together.

As your therapist I will provide a safe space in which you can explore any emotional, social or mental health issues. In therapy sessions with me you can express your feelings and gain deeper insight into yourself and your relationships with others. Our sessions are confidential, so you can talk about things you might not feel comfortable discussing with anyone else. The goal is to help you find better ways to cope and to bring about changes in the way you think and behave that will improve your mental and emotional well-being.

Therapy can be short or long term. The number of sessions will depend on the depth and complexity of the issues you want to resolve. It is unusual for therapy to last for less than six sessions, and some types of therapy may last for two years or more.

As an integrative therapist I use a range of approaches and methods and tailor the approach to each individual client. I work on the basis that that there is no 'one size fits all' approach. There is an emphasis on the therapeutic relationship between therapist and client.

Therapy can benefit anyone facing issues such as:

  • anxiety
  • feelings of depression, sadness, grief or emptiness
  • inability to cope
  • problems dealing with stress or recovering from stressful situations
  • lack of confidence/self-esteem or extreme shyness
  • coping with the effects of abuse
  • extreme mood swings
  • difficulty making or sustaining relationships, or repeatedly becoming involved in unsatisfying or destructive relationships
  • sexual problems
  • difficulties coming to terms with losses such as bereavement, divorce or loss of employment
  • eating disorders
  • self-harm
  • obsessive behaviour
  • panic attacks and phobia
  • addiction

Therapy can also help you to develop new perspectives and discover alternative options if you are stuck or at a crossroads in your life.

Contact me on 07579 027574 or mail@eleanorminneyresource.co.uk to enquire (it would be helpful if you can say something brief about what you are looking for from therapy).

I am a psychotherapist in the final stages of my training, therefore I offer lower-cost sessions.

I have experience supporting people with challenges including (not limited to):

  • anxiety
  • communication, expressing yourself
  • confidence, self-esteem and self-worth
  • depression
  • grief and loss
  • past trauma, traumatic experiences
  • relationship issues
  • showing up as you are – particularly if you don’t conform to ‘norms’, expectations or assumptions
  • stress
  • spiritual emergence
  • uncertainty

Mindfulness Based Core Process Psychotherapy (CPP for short) intends to help you to rediscover your inherent health and wisdom – your inner nature – that can get so obscured by the challenges and conditions of life. This perspective on experience comes from Buddhist Psychology and is informed by spiritual awareness practice. The approach of CPP is very much a ‘joint process’ – it relies on a commitment from both of us while we make sense of your experience, the particular challenges you are coping with, and what may be needed. I work in an organic and creative way, so each person’s therapeutic journey will be unique to them.

My name is Beata and I have been practicing Gestalt Psychotherapy in Oxford since 2019, offering 1:1 sessions for adults. I facilitate therapy in English and in Polish, both face to face and via online platforms, usually using Zoom. I work with both long and short-term therapy. Most of my working life was spent working in a people facing role in the Corporate Sector, however, after 15 years or so, I began to notice feeling unfulfilled. As I was searching for depth and meaning in my own life, I came across Gestalt Therapy as a client, what inspired me to starting Gestalt training.

Working as a psychotherapist, I keep a good balance between challenging and supporting clients. I give all my attention to the client, and I strive to accept them with everything that they bring. I see clients in a safe environment. I work with experimentation, paying attention to and inviting movement and sensations clients may feel in their bodies. It is a creative approach where you and I may experiment with creative forms of expressing feelings and attending to the felt sense. I am open to explore ways to work together that best suit you. This includes but is not limited to working with movement, art, voice, music, dreams, poetry etc. I have a particular interest in themes of love, connection, belonging and loneliness.

What I can help with:

  • Personal, Family and Work Issues
  • Anxiety, Stress, Depression
  • Loss, Separation, Emotional Blocks
  • Feeling Low, Self Esteem
  • Conflict, Anger
  • Cultural issues, Cross-cultural Relationships
  • New Beginnings, Life Changes, Parenting Challenges
  • Redundancy, Personal Development, Spirituality, Confidence, Sexuality, Sexual Abuse Health Anxiety, Panic Attacks, Trauma
  • Eating disorders

Deciding to start therapy can be a big decision. After an initial conversation, we decide together how often we see each other, the focus and length of our work. I work both with time-limited therapy and with more open long-term therapy. You can make an appointment by emailing or calling me.
