About Angela Neild
All sessions are currently online. Telephone sessions are available if preferred.

I’m Angela Neild, a BACP Registered Therapist with over 20 years’ experience. If you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck (including struggling with motivation), you don’t need to have everything figured out before you reach out. We can start where you are.

How I work

Safety/Crisis Support

Important: I’m not a crisis service. If you’re at immediate risk call 999 or go to A&E. You can also contact Samaritans on 116 123 (UK, 24/7).

I offer both brief, solution-focused therapy (where appropriate) and longer-term counselling and psychotherapy for more complex or longstanding difficulties. We’ll agree a pace that feels safe and realistic, and I’ll tailor sessions to your individual needs, because no two people and no two journeys are the same.

My values and fees

I care about therapy being accessible. Traditionally, private therapy has often felt out of reach unless you have a high income, and that doesn’t sit well with my values. My aim is to offer high-quality support at fair rates, with a small number of reduced-fee spaces for students and low/one income households (subject to availability).

Experience

I’ve worked across a range of settings alongside private practice. In 2023 I relocated from Manchester to the Ribble Valley and delivered perpetrator behavioural change programmes in Lancashire. Other roles include counselling within a specialist Tier 4 residential rehabilitation unit for substance misuse, and working with EAP services as well as drug and alcohol daycare services.
