Introducing ourselves again, but as Mentality and Beyond…

Hi, I’m Amy 👋

I’m one of the founders and counsellors at Mentality & Beyond.

I’ve always loved helping people, particularly when it comes to mental health. There’s something incredibly rewarding about supporting someone as they begin to understand themselves, find themselves again, or perhaps discover who they are for the very first time.

To be trusted with the thoughts, feelings and experiences that someone may have never shared with anyone before. Being able to provide a safe space where someone can be completely themselves, without judgement, and feel genuinely heard is one of the most meaningful parts of what we do.

Counselling can be about so many things. It might be breaking unhelpful patterns, understanding behaviours, building self-esteem, navigating change, or simply having someone beside you through some of the most challenging experiences life can bring.

And you don’t have to go through any of it alone.

Whether you choose to see us in person at our space in Pontefract, West Yorkshire, or prefer video or telephone counselling, we’re here to listen, without judgement, and to support you through your journey.

Making counselling accessible and affordable is something that really matters to us. Our ambition is to make counselling available to as many people as we can, because we believe that everyone should have the opportunity to access support when they need it.

This is Mentality & Beyond, a new name, but the same heart behind what we do. 🌿

We've welcomed a new little companion to the room... Rosie Lea, Mug of Tea ☕️💛

(Hot drinks soon to follow ••)

You might notice a tew Jellycats around when you visit us. That's because we simply adore them. They're soft, comforting, a little bit whimsical, and they bring a gentle sense of warmth and happiness into the space.

Sometimes it's the smallest, cosiest touches that help create a calm, welcoming environment, and if they raise a smile along the way, even better! 🪼😻

More and more people are turning to monthly therapy sessions, and it’s not just for when things feel overwhelming.

Think of it like a regular check-in for your mind. Just as you’d look after your physical health, therapy gives you space to maintain your mental and emotional wellbeing too.

✨ Why people are choosing monthly therapy:
• A consistent space to talk things through without judgment
• Better self-awareness and understanding of patterns
• Tools to manage stress, anxiety, and everyday challenges
• Improved relationships and communication
• A chance to pause, reflect, and reset each month

You don’t have to be in crisis to benefit. Sometimes, having that one hour a month to focus on yourself can make all the difference.

Looking after your mental health isn’t a luxury, it’s part of living well!
