Choosing a Counsellor or Anger Management Specialist
Beware the naked man who offers you his shirt – As with all professions, there are the good, the bad and the incompetent, and therapists are no different. Not all therapists are created equally. They vary in skill, competence, experience, dedication and much more besides. Often you will find couple counsellors trying to help couples when they themselves do not have the ability to create and maintain a healthy functional relationship for themselves. Others claim to be able to help people with Anxiety, Depression, Anger Management issues, Addictions, Control issues, Narcissism, and other mental health and relational health issues whilst suffering from the very same issues themselves. One need only ask oneself a simple question: ‘If this person cannot help themselves, how can they help me?’ Most common mental health issues including Anger, Anxiety, and Depression are in fact readily resolvable without the need to resort to medication or tools… Both of which do not stand the test of time. A skilled therapist should be able to outline and explain treatment plan or the process by which they will help you. If they cannot, then they know not.
Key Services:
Our therapists have been providing the following key services for over a decade, (since 2006), . They are highly skilled, experienced and motivated specialists and without wishing to seem arrogant, you will not find better in the three counties area, (Bedfordshire, Northamptonshire and Milton Keynes) or virtually online. We are highly recommended, and our efficacy and success rate speak for themselves. We are here to help you improve your life, the life of your family, your relationships and achieve your full potential and goals.

Anger Management Experts
Our Anger Management specialists are fully trained and qualified counsellors and psychotherapists with years of experience in helping people of any age, gender and background overcome Anger Management issues. We help people resolve:
• Both Overt Aggression and Passive Aggression
• Snappishness, Quick temperedness, Resentments and Petulance

• Shouting and Aggressive outbursts
• Physical, emotional and psychological abuse
• Domestic Violence
• Co-dependant relationships
Helping Victims of Abuse and Domestic Violence
Violence, aggression (overt and covert) and threatening and bullying behaviours are common to couples, families, work places and society as a whole. From childhood through to adulthood, an individual may suffer Physical, Emotional and Sexual abuse, bullying and harassment and this invariably has a long term effect on their lives and relationships. Our Psychotherapists and Counsellors are dedicated and experienced in working sensitively to help people rebuild healthy lives and relationships.
Marriage & Couple Counselling Specialists
More than 50% of all marriages and long term committed relationships fail. Considering the long term relational, emotional and financial effects, it therefore seems reasonable to resolve issues rather than the alternative. Our counsellors and Psychotherapists specialise in helping people improve all forms of relationships including:
• Couples, Marriages & Civil Partnerships
• Parent and Child, Siblings, & Inter-family
TonicTalk can help you:
• Resolve conflicts and Misunderstandings
• Overcome and avoid bitterness and resentment
• Understand and accept each other
• Improve your Communication skills
• Voice needs and goals and achieve them
• Improve intimacy, care and Love
• Minimise all forms of aggression
Relationship MOT & Preventive Maintenance
Even great relationships have their issues. People service their cars and boilers as a precaution to ensure reliable use and longer product life. Why not invest in your relationship to ensure that small issues do not become critical and damaging and also to improve and develop the over all quality of your relationship and happiness?
Mediation, Separation & Divorce
TonicTalk Counsellors can assist you when relationships and marriages fail. We can help keep costs to a minimum and reduce the psychological damage done to children. We help couples come to terms with the changes brought on by separation and divorce and empower and encourage them not to punish or act out of frustration, anger or spite but instead to work together for a healthy and amicable outcome.
Effective Anxiety Treatment
Anxiety is a common to complex emotional, psychological and behavioural issue that can include the extremes of Panic Attacks, Phobias, OCD and GAD. Despite being ineffectual and having side-effects, G.P.s offer Anti-Anxiety medication which can only manage symptoms and will not resolve the underlying causes. Counselling and Psychotherapy offers one of the few viable long term sustainable solutions and our counsellors and Psychotherapists have great success in assisting individuals to overcome Anxiety, Panic Attacks, OCD and GAD.
Depression Counselling
There are many forms of depression, both long-term and short-term, and often these are treated with long term antidepressants which only manage symptomology without the prospect of a real sustainable solution. Talking therapies like Counselling and Psychotherapy can bring long term sustainable relief and we have an excellent reputation for providing such help.

Also, we recognise that the ongoing success of TonicTalk is completely dependant on the continued provision of high quality counselling and psychotherapy services including individual, couple’s and family counselling; coaching and mentoring and Anger Management.
TonicTalk is therefore dedicated to its clients and the provision of high quality counselling services. As a professional Full-Time Private Practice that only employs full-time professional counsellors and psychotherapists, TonicTalk is at the pinnacle of service provision and accountability within the Counselling and Psychotherapy profession.
