PSYCHOTHERAPY

Tilly Line (she/her)

MA, PhD, MBACP

I am an integrative psychotherapeutic counsellor based in Bristol, supporting individuals, couples, and people in diverse relationship structures. Whatever brings you to therapy, I offer a calm and non-judgemental space to make sense of your experiences and I am LGBTQ+ affirming.

I have supported clients with a range of experiences, including:

Anxiety, depression, stress, or feeling overwhelmed
Identity, sexuality, or relationship preferences
Low self-esteem or loss of confidence
Communication difficulties
Navigating conflict more constructively
Understanding and healing after betrayal
Workplace relationships and recovery from burnout
Differing expectations or life decisions, such as having children, moving in together, or committing to marriage or a civil partnership
Considering whether to continue, change, or end a relationship
Grief, including the loss of loved ones, changes in relationships, life transitions, and other experiences of loss

If you’d like to arrange a free 15 min initial conversation, or book a first session, drop me a line at counselling@tillyline.co.uk.

INTEGRATIVE THERAPY

I work with individuals to explore emotions, relationships, and recurring ways of thinking, feeling, or responding that may be affecting your life. With couples or more than one client, I focus on helping you understand the dynamics between you, improve communication, and work through difficulties together.

As an integrative counsellor, I draw on a range of psychotherapeutic theories and tools to help you explore your relationships, feelings, behaviours and choices, in a way that best supports your needs:

Systemic

Systemic therapy offers a supportive space for people to explore how their relationships work — looking at the patterns, dynamics, and how each person plays a part in both the strengths and the challenges within the ‘system’. Everyone is given equal space to share their perspective, with openness and without judgement.

Psychodynamic

Psychodynamic therapy offers a space to explore how past experiences and unconscious patterns may be shaping your present relationships and emotional life. By bringing these influences into awareness, it can help foster deeper understanding and meaningful change.

Narrative

Narrative therapy invites us to look at the stories we tell about ourselves — and to consider how those stories have been shaped by the people, cultures, and environments around us. It’s a thoughtful and respectful approach that helps us explore our identities and experiences, making space for new perspectives and possibilities.

ACT

Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) offers an evidence-based approach to enhancing psychological flexibility. A key principle of ACT is the importance of identifying and clarifying our personal values so that we can make more intentional choices, including in our personal and professional relationships.
