Many people go through periods of times when they feel vulnerable, anxious, stressed, depressed or just unhappy. Sometimes these are triggered by obvious causes, like a breakup in a relationship, job loss or a bereavement, while at other times the underlying causes seem opaque, especially when life appears to be fulfilling and good.We carry around sadness, guilt, shame, pain, darkness, anger, despair and in some cases a sense of desperation. It is possible to feel relief, to let some of the pain go, to gain strength and confidence, have the ability to heal and grow so you can live a life without anxiety worry and horrible thoughts.

Counselling is a talking therapy that provides you with the opportunity and space to explore your concerns, worries, fears and anxieties in a safe and confidential manner without being judged. Life brings about many storms. They may be emotional, physical, psychological, financial and spiritual. During such times, it can be hard trying to cope alone and as such, one may feel the need to talk it over with someone. Someone who is able to listen attentively with compassion, sensitivity so as to understand their distress. It is not my role to give you advice rather to enable you to talk and empower you to find your own solutions.

It is an insight-oriented psychotherapy.

At certain times in our lives most of us find we become stuck or unhappy. These feelings can arise from repeating the same mistakes or patterns. Sometimes a bereavement can result in overwhelming feelings of grief or loss. We can begin to experience symptoms of anxiety or depression. We can feel trapped at work or in our personal relationships. We can struggle with issues around self-esteem or low confidence. Coming to terms with and accepting our true identities in terms of gender and sexuality can be extremely challenging. Trauma from our past which we have not processed can re-emerge. Sometimes things just don’t feel right.
