Counselling in Holybourne

My clients often feel painfully stuck in some way and that's why they come to me. Problems become overwhelming. For instance, being unhappy in a marriage; having a serious illness and dealing with its effects; feeling low and not understanding why; dealing with divorce; having problems with one's children and not being sure how to manage; wanting to move forward in life but just not managing somehow; work issues - struggles with colleagues, dissatisfaction with a career. Anxiety, depression and confusion usually accompany these challenging life situations.

Life...Relationships...Work.... I partner with individuals and couples who want a place to reflect and make sense of their current difficulties so that they can get back on track. I offer a friendly, down to earth, research backed approach both online and face to face. I can provide counselling, psychotherapy and coaching, or a combination as determined by your unique needs. I start from the perspective that people make sense i.e. their behaviour and what they are experiencing have meaning that can be understood in the context of their history and their current life context.

Hello, I am a BACP accredited Individual, Couples and Young Persons Counsellor/Psychotherapist and also a Therapeutic Coach.  I work from my  private practice in Wedmore on the Somerset Levels,  near Cheddar,  Wells, Glastonbury and Weston super Mare. I offer a FREE introductory 15/20 minute appointment, so please get in touch via e mail or telephone to find out more about how I work, and to discuss your needs. This will hopefully help to assist you in deciding whether I am the right therapist for you. If distance or travelling is a problem,  I also offer sessions ONLINE, VIa ZOOM OR BY TELEPHONE.

Does life sometimes feel like a jigsaw puzzle with pieces not slotting together? I am a great believer that we need to invest in ourselves. When life becomes difficult and those pieces are just not fitting, therapy gives you the opportunity to focus on yourself, make you the priority in an otherwise busy life. I have been through such times and it encouraged me to train as a counsellor then a psychotherapist to help clients with general mental health issues and other life difficulties, such as grief and other losses, addiction, sexuality, relationships, domestic abuse and anger issues.

Are you caught in a cycle of broken relationships, battling Self sabotage, shame, and low self-esteem? Does anger, addiction, or a yearning for change linger in your thoughts, yet you're uncertain where to begin? Perhaps your upbringing was marked by hostility, abuse or you felt unseen & unheard by emotionally distant parents? Whether your struggles stem from short-term or prolonged trauma, navigating its impact on your daily life leaves you feeling adrift, disconnected and unsure how to separate the past from the present.

Hi there and welcome to Jenny Blain Counselling. I am a fully qualified and experienced counsellor & clinical supervisor based in Canterbury. The core of my counselling practise is humanistic but I work in an integrative way, drawing from many different counselling theories to meet my clients' needs. I have experience working in educational settings such as colleges and special educational needs schools as well as in private practise. My clients are teenagers, young adults, adults and couples.

My name is Marek and I am an Integrative Counsellor & Psychotherapist, registered and accredited member of BACP. Over the years, I have worked with adult individuals and couples, who have come to me with many presenting difficulties. I supported them with managing their stressful lives and finding new perspectives for the future. It can be too much to even start making the first step, let along contacting a therapist to talk to about your life. I am here and if you would like to book an initial consultation to find out more about how I might be able to support you therapeutically, please do not hesitate to get in touch.

Do you worry about tomorrow? Modern life can feel overwhelming and the way forward uncertain. You might feel anxious all the time, burnt-out or struggle to sleep, as your mind races in circles. Perhaps you are recovering from past or accumulative trauma? All the while, your relationships with loved ones, colleagues and even yourself is suffering. Counselling offers you the opportunity to understand and relieve your symptoms and also improve self-esteem. I understand that having therapy can also feel uncomfortable or even self-indulgent.

I offer a non-judgemental, safe environment to help you understand yourself and your life. Counselling can support you to find your own insights, new ways of being with yourself and others, and work towards healing and freedom. It can be a space to get things off your chest, rest or reset, find perspective and understanding in life and relationships, as well as having someone to really hear and be with you as you share and explore what is difficult. My practice is informed by Buddhist philosophy and meditation, which I have been exploring and supporting others with for over 15 years, emphasising embodied awareness and compassion.

I can help you to reach the potential that you want and deserve to reach by helping you to understand your past, present and future.

To work with the negative emotions that you feel so that you can identify quickly what your emotions are telling you and then challenge them so that they do not control you.

Or are you struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or any other difficult situation you are going through a loss or bereavement? We are social beings and born to be connected.

Hi. I am Sarah. I am a fully qualified and registered counsellor with over 8 years experience. My focus areas are: Depression, anxiety, Grief, self-esteem issues, Trauma (PTSD and complex PTSD) as well as Couples counselling. I work with both Teens and adults online via zoom. I provide a non judgmental safe space to explore your current issues using an Integrative approach- I use elements of CBT, BWRT, Solution Focused Therapy, Emotion Focused Therapy, Existential therapy, and Emotion Freedom technique.

It can be a great relief to be able to share your worries and stress with someone. We all struggle at times and as much as we would like to talk to our friends or family we feel unable to let them in. Sometimes we feel stuck, alone and not able to find the solution to the problem that's making us unhappy. Being able to talk openly with someone who can support you, without judgement, as you explore your feelings and the circumstances that are causing you stress can make a big difference. You will start to feel in control, see things more clearly and feel more confident to make the changes you want to in your life.

Does your inner world feel out of balance? Perhaps you feeling stressed, worried, or overwhelmed? Or maybe you feeling unmotivated, down or disconnected? Being listened to and understood by a caring professional in an empathic therapeutic relationship can bring tremendous relief from emotional conflict and pain, develop a stronger self and promote constructive ways to live a more fulfilling and happy life. For more than 15 years I have been offering psychological assessment and treatment to adults and older adults with a range of difficulties.

Hello when you are stressed, depressed or anxious looking for the right Counsellor or Life Coach can be a very challenging task. I believe that it takes a strength of character to admit to yourself that you need the help of another person. I offer you a warm and confidential space where you can share with me the things that are a major concern to you at this time. I offer an initial half-hour complimentary session to establish a collaborative decision on the way forward.

I have extensive lifelong experience of supporting those suffering with poor mental health, including the most severe conditions. I have worked successfully with people of all ages, including adolescents, homemakers, C-Suite executives and those receiving end-of-life care. I also work with couples using The Gottman Method.

I approach therapy with a compassionate, authentic, non-judgemental stance. I am experienced in working with a broad range of clinical presentations including anxiety (e.g. generalised anxiety, social anxiety, health anxiety, OCD) and depression as well as supporting people through difficult life circumstances (e.g. divorce, bereavement). I have specialist knowledge working with people experiencing psychological distress within the context of physical health difficulties and have an ongoing interest in work-related stress and burnout.
