Mental health therapist

If you're feeling overwhelmed, anxious, low, or simply not yourself, speaking to a mental health therapist can help. Whether you're facing a specific issue or a general sense that something isn’t right, therapy offers a space to talk, reflect, and move forward with support.

At PLE Health, our qualified mental health therapists work with people of all ages and backgrounds. We’re here to help you understand what you’re going through and find practical, personalised ways to cope and feel better.

What is a mental health therapist?

A mental health therapist is a trained professional who supports people experiencing emotional, psychological, or behavioural challenges. They help clients explore thoughts, feelings, and behaviours in a safe, confidential setting.

Our therapists work with individuals, couples, and families, offering evidence-based approaches for a wide range of concerns including:

  • Anxiety and panic attacks

  • Depression and low mood

  • Stress and burnout

  • Grief and loss

  • Trauma or PTSD

  • Relationship or family difficulties

  • Self-esteem or confidence issues

  • Life changes, identity, or uncertainty

Therapists don’t tell you what to do, they help you make sense of your thoughts and feelings so you can make choices that feel right for you.
