Counselling & Psychotherapy Services
Talk in confidence, without being judged, with someone who is trained to help.
Online, or in person, sitting comfortably in a peaceful room, or walking together outdoors in nature.
Are you struggling with issues related to anxiety, trauma, grief, depression, or major life changes? I offer counselling and psychotherapy, supervision and consultation. We can work together to support you on your journey of healing and wellbeing.




I have been working as a Therapist in the N.H.S. for over 20 years. I am trained in E.M.D.R. therapy for treating trauma and use a compassion and mindfulness-based approach throughout.
I am an accredited member of the B.A.C.P. (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and registered with the H.C.P.C. (Health Care Professions Council) as a Music Therapist. I trained with B.A.M.B.A (British Association of Mindfulness-based Approaches) as a Mindfulness Teacher and Supervisor and I'm a Certified Sex Therapy Informed Professional with the Integrative Sex Therapy Institute. I'm also an advanced Yoga Teacher certified with the British Wheel of Yoga.

About Therapy
Cultivating Kindness and Caring for Your Needs
Perhaps you feel anxious or stressed - maybe you're unsure about the future of a relationship, or just feel that you aren't living the life you hoped for. Whatever your needs may be, I am here to offer support and a different perspective.
Counselling can address specific issues, like bereavement and loss, while therapy may be a deeper process of acceptance and change.
My approach is grounded in compassion and mindfulness, shown to transform our experience. I have the tools and professional experience to help you take the next steps.
Clinical supervision and professional consultation are also available.

Counselling & Psychotherapy Services
Listening with Attention

If you’re looking for quality Individual Therapy sessions with an accredited Psychotherapist who cares, then you’ve come to the right place. We work together, setting achievable goals.
This may be a solution-focused Counselling intervention. I am also a trained EMDR Therapist, an evidence-based approach which can be helpful to overcome trauma. I use MBCT (mindfulness-based cognitive therapy) to affect change in experiences of depression and anxiety.
Some people do not have words or prefer not to use words to communicate. I am a state registered Music Therapist and we can use this powerful non-verbal means of communication to achieve your aims. I have beautiful, accessible instruments to hand and songwriting is another expressive medium we can explore.
Book an appointment today, we can discuss your needs and see what I can do for you.
Mindfulness, Relaxation and Stress-relief
Moving with Compassion

In your therapy sessions, we’ll work to solve current problems through mindfulness-based practices. This may take place sitting comfortably indoors, or outdoors in the tranquillity of a natural environment. We may talk together as we walk around nearby.
We may also move into yoga-based interventions for a holistic approach that includes body therapy.
We know that we are made up of 'body, mind and spirit' and we can incorporate all of these aspects to develop your sense of recovery to wellbeing and wholeness.
Learning to feel grounded in our bodies helps us to feel more resilient and relaxed. This will allow you “re-frame” your reactions and provide you with valuable tools to cope with life’s stresses.
People find this approach beneficial and inspirational and this is certainly my experience.
I teach regular yoga classes and provide workshops at events and festivals. I offer music-based relaxation with sound baths and vocal toning, and fun well-being ukulele sessions.
I run Therapeutic Yoga for Trauma Recovery as a 6-week course.
The weekly sessions begin with a practice to help us feel grounded and continue with conscious breathing, vagus nerve stimulation (to nourish our nervous systems), warming up the body, mindfulness in movement and end with integrative rest.
For more information about the next course dates, and to book, please email heathermurray125@gmail.com or call/text 07811 628247
I also teach a yoga class weekly at the magical eco-build Stiwdio Felin Fach, all welcome, donation-based. You can see more information about my yoga teaching and practice by following this link: https://musicandthemuse.com/yoga/
