ONLINE COUNSELLING FROM HEADINGTON, OXFORD

Supporting you on your healing path

Welcome to Nautilus Counselling

I’m Beth and I’m passionate about being a counsellor for sensitive souls who are ready to stop shrinking or people-pleasing, heal old patterns, and reconnect with their true self.

I offer soulful, trauma-informed therapy that helps you build self-trust, calm your nervous system, and live more authentically. Whether you’re exhausted from holding everything together, navigating grief or burnout, or just feeling lost in the swirl of life — you are welcome here.

Working With Me

My approach is gentle yet empowering, grounded in trauma-informed practice and deep respect for your inner wisdom. I believe therapy should be a soft place to land — especially if you’re someone who’s spent a long time surviving in spaces that didn’t feel safe. My work is shaped by many years in the counselling field, ongoing training, and my own lived experience of navigating trauma and the healing journey. I know what it’s like to try to hold everything together. I also know the strength it takes to soften, reach out, and choose a different way. Here are some of the ways i can support you:

Simply talking through what has happened and the feelings involved.

Working creatively including art, writing, visualisation, and metaphor.

I can help you work towards living in the present rather than in the past or future.

I can support you to process difficult emotions that are stored in the body.

Inner child work so that your inner child finally feels listened to and supported.

Identifying and changing your patterns in family and work life.

I am trained to use Eye Movement, Desensitisation and Regulation Therapy (EMDR). This is a method of bringing together past, present and future to help process memories. I would not use this type of therapy unless we had discussed it in advance. Please contact me if you have any questions about this therapy.

I work in a trauma informed way so I use a three phase approach in my counselling which means that we can first of all ensure that you are grounded, both in the counselling relationship and in your everyday life. We can then move on to process the difficult things that have happened. After this we can talk about the future that you would like to build for yourself.

The duration of the counselling depends on the individual and the circumstances. I do both long term and short term counselling. I am also very happy to help you if you are already part way through your healing journey (for example, if you have had counselling before) and would like to move on to the next stage.

I work in a collaborative way and I am always open to feedback regarding the suggestions that I make in your counselling (after all, they are always only suggestions!) I also take confidentially and your autonomy very seriously. I believe that I can only help people to move forward if they feel heard and as safe as possible.

Online Counselling from Headington

I offer online counselling from my practice in Headington, Oxford. Online sessions are available via Google Meet, WhatsApp Video and Facetime, allowing for greater flexibility, reaching clients from the surrounding areas of Marston, Cowley, Wood Farm, Sandhills, Risinghurst, Wheatley, Summertown and across the UK.

Online counselling can work very well for many people as it is more convenient than face to face (with no travel time or parking to worry about!) it can be very helpful for you to be in the comfort of your own home, particularly when talking about difficult subjects. This can even mean that the work evolves more quickly than in face to face sessions.
