Welcome
My name is Aude Ayliffe
I am a BACP registered Psychotherapist, Transformational Coach and NCH Hypnotherapist with over twelve years of experience working with adults and teenagers online and at my private practice in Guildford, Surrey.
A confidential, non-judgmental and safe place for you.
Aude's unique approach successfully combines Psychotherapy & Transformational Coaching.
With a down-to-earth, no-nonsense approach, Aude is dedicated to empowering each person by helping them better understand their mind and how it responds to life’s challenges. Aude's practical, yet compassionate approach focuses on giving her clients the tools they need to heal, cope, and move forward with long-lasting strategies that work for them.
Aude’s style is honest, direct, and empathetic, with a touch of humour to make the journey feel lighter. She’s committed to providing a safe, confidential space for her clients, adhering to the ethical standards of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy and the National Council of Hypnotherapy to ensure their well-being every step of the way.
In our work together - in person or online - I offer a safe environment to explore, process, understand and manage your
feelings, thoughts and behaviours, enabling you to heal and make empowered choices through Therapy and Coaching.
My professional expertise is helping clients overcome, manage or heal specifically from emotional and narcissistic abuse, relationships, neurodivergence, anxiety and depression.
I offer the opportunity for you to understand how your past experiences shaped who you are now, how your unique mind works and guide you towards your desired goal, healing or/and changes with the therapeutic support you need, as well as practical tools and techniques tailored to you.
My private practice is based in Guildford town centre, 3 min walk from the train station and easy access from the A3.
Personal Therapy
Benefit from the Dual Approach of Psychotherapy and Coaching for empowering mind shift, clarity and long-lasting positive changes.
By addressing both psychological and practical challenges, my unique approach can foster more lasting and meaningful changes to meet the full spectrum of your personal needs, moving seamlessly between therapeutic techniques and coaching strategies.
More than offering you a safe place to explore and process your feelings, your past and present experiences, I empower you to create the mind shift you need and want through truly understanding how your unique mind works and responds before potentially implementing the small realistic changes you need and want for a healthier and more fulfilling life.
Tailored practical tools and techniques will help you evaluate your needs, gain a deeper understanding of yourself, your current circumstances and your relationships to make empowered choices and changes towards your personal or professional goals.
My professional expertise covers:
-
Anxiety & Depression
-
Emotional & Narcissistic Abuse
-
Trauma and traumatic events
-
Neurodivergence: ADHD & Autism Spectrum Disorder (diagnosed or undiagnosed)
-
LGBTQ+ challenges
I believe my multi-cultural background, personal life journey and wide professional experience mean that I am able to authentically offer a safe and non-judgemental approach rooted in compassion.
My multi-disciplinary approach incorporates Person-centred, Psychodynamic, Transformational Coaching, Neuro-linguistic Programming, Mindfulness and CBT modalities, which are tailored to each client's individual needs and goals.
I will be happy to answer any questions you may have about how the process works.
I follow the strict ethical guidelines of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy ethical framework.
I have an enhanced DBS and professional liability insurance.
Transformational Coaching
My unique approach includes Transformational Coaching, Neuro-linguistic Programming and CBT.
While therapy is reparative in nature, coaching has a personal development focus, structure and time frame.
My coaching clients must be mentally healthy to engage and benefit from coaching. Its focus is not on understanding the past or overcoming traumatic events and mental illness (for which psychotherapy or counselling might be beneficial).
I work with my client's conscious experience, while helping him or her understand that sometimes their self-limiting behaviour is being driven by thoughts, feelings and beliefs of which they are unaware and where my professional insight as a psychotherapist comes into play.
Taking the time to truly connect with my clients and learn about my clients as individuals before the 'coaching work' starts,
I also focus a great deal on my client's real interactions within the various social systems in which they are embedded. The more I understand the social and practical realities of their life, the better able I am to help them in therapy and in coaching.
As a registered Therapist my priority is my clients' well-being and needs and helping them navigate changes and challenges whilst maintaining a strong and healthy sense of self.
