A confidential and supportive space to work through the personal challenges in your life
Why Consider Counselling?
Life can be hard. Sometimes we get thrown off track, losing sight of ourselves in the busyness of it all or in times of difficulty. If things reach a sticking point, it can help to have the support of someone independent from any other area of your life whose job it is to listen, help you explore what’s going on and have your back. You don’t have to suffer alone.
SPEAK IN CONFIDENCE
Counselling takes place in a safe space, whether it be in person or online, where you can meet with someone who will listen with sensitivity, empathy and without judgement. It is a space wholly dedicated to you, free from other people's opinions.
A PROBLEM SHARED...
Counselling will help you gain greater insight into what’s causing the difficulties you are facing and help you understand why you act or react to them the way you do.
CONSIDER DIFFERENT, MORE FULFILLING CHOICES
Working together, I can help provide you with a set of tools you can use in order to move towards managing or resolving the difficulties you are facing. This process will help you to reconnect with your values in order to feel more settled, empowered, feeling more your ‘self’ and more connected to the inner ‘you’.
Here are a few of the more common difficulties that can be supported through counselling:
Feelings of stress or anxiety
Panic attacks
Grief, loss or bereavement
Trauma and post-traumatic stress
Emotional abuse
Anger management
Relationship problems
Depression
Loneliness and feelings of emptiness
Problems with confidence or self-esteem
Identity
Issues relating to sexuality
Work/life balance
Difficulties at work or in retirement
MARCH Spotlight
As we approach March, it is often seen as a month of gentle transition - the quiet shift from winter's introspection to the emerging energy of Spring. As a humanistic counsellor, I view this time of year as an invitation to reconnect with your own natural process of growth. March can highlight themes of renewal, hope and possibility, but it can also bring uncertainty or pressure to 'start fresh'. In our work together, there is no expectation to bloom before you are ready. Whether you are navigating anxiety, loss, relationship challenges or simply feeling stuck, this is a space where all parts of you are welcome. This month's spotlight is a reminder that growth is rarely dramatic - often it is quiet, steady and is deeply personal. If you are feeling the pull towards change, perhaps this is the season to begin.

You may not know it, but you've already taken the first step...
It can be scary and confusing making the decision to contact a counsellor or therapist, but in my experience people will struggle with a mental health issue, a personal crisis or problems with a relationship for much longer than is healthy. Sometimes a friend has proved a source of comfort, but this help can only go so far. Realising that resolving a problem requires something more means you have actually already taken the first step towards improving your life.
