Cantonese Counselling in Weston-super-Mare

大家好，我係Karlie，我在英國完成我第一個學位，回到香港再進修，得到我的專業輔導碩士學位。在香港合作機構包括不同的中學，慈善團體如保良局、東華三院等。三年前移居來到英國繼續執業。理解從香港移居來到英國重新生活一點都不容易，需要重新適應生活習慣，文化背景和語言，大家所面對的困難我都理解。我相信你們最了解自己的情況，作為治療師，我的責任是為大家提供一個安全且不帶偏見的環境，讓大家尋找解決方案或從不同的角度看待事物，在需要的時候陪伴和鼓勵你們。

改變你的明天：從心理治療開始你的旅程。 我是一位專注的心理治療師和催眠治療師，專門從事揭示潛意識深處的工作，以促進真正的療愈和轉化，引導個人展開自我探索和理解的旅程。擁有豐富的經驗和廣泛的培訓，我專攻於應對各種情感挑戰，包括抑鬱、焦慮、童年創傷、內在衝突、個人成長、關係問題、喪親、育兒、生活轉變、自尊、壓力/憤怒管理、創傷、婦女問題和工作相關問題。 我的教育之旅包括在香港大學取得心理諮詢碩士學位，並取得埃里克森催眠治療的認證。自2021年遷居至英國後，我已成為英國諮詢與心理治療協會（BACP）的註冊會員。在我的實踐中， 我主張採用綜合且量身定制的治療方法，借鑒了埃里克森催眠治療、認知行為療法（CBT）、心理教育、呼吸工作和情感導向療法（EFT）、以及解決方案導向簡短治療(SFBT) 等技術。我們將一起踏上療愈和成長的旅程，提升對核心問題的意識，並促進轉化性的改變，讓您更深入地探索和了解自己。

我們每天都會面對大小不同的困難和挑戰，有時候因著各樣原因難以與別人分享，唯有獨自面對。或許你會覺得困惑和迷茫，這種無力感有時甚至會令你感到窒息，苦無出路。近年有不少來到英國生活的港人因為要適應新環境，在社交、工作或學業上遇到挫折，對自我形象和價值感到懷疑。如果你也有類似的經歷，你可以透過心理輔導去重新探索自我，認識自己的情緒，從而更有效面對困境和自身的需要。

I am a Teenager Counsellor and Certified Sandplay Therapist working with Teenager and Adults. I provide a safe and calm space for you or your teenagers to explore what is bothering you using different approaches including creative arts, mindfulness etc. We work together to find ways to cope with your struggles.

I work with teenagers who suffer from anxiety, bullying, loneliness and low attendance, etc. I also work with adults who would like to make changes in life.

Relationships can be challenging at times, with repeated dead-end communication resulting in distancing and stone-walling, and resulting couple's overall dissatisfaction. Reconnection, and forgiveness through installing new communication patterns and awareness. A devitalized relationship can be overwhelming with grief and loss, turbulent thoughts and feelings would be hard to bear. Recuperating with a process of catharsis, recognizing the pain and hurt, reflecting on the attachment, releasing blocked emotions, and reconstructing the future outlook, thus inner peace, order in everyday life, and growth ensue.

Experiencing difficult emotions in face of life challenges or crisis are often considered as “problems” that make us feel vulnerable, powerless or shameful. Although these "problems" are often natural human experiences, we sometimes struggle with the critical inner voice and have little compassion towards self. Psychotherapy is neither a quick fix of your psychological wounds nor a direct path to happiness. It's a process where you can start connecting with yourself and make sense of your own narrative in a safe and respectful space. The process of relating to a genuine human being itself could be the start of your healing journey.

Step into a space where healing begins and self-discovery unfolds. I am Atlas, a Chartered Clinical Psychologist, accredited by the HCPC, dedicated to guiding you back to emotional well-being. With 15 years of rich experience across healthcare and education sectors, my approach is rooted in a profound understanding of the mind and its complex behaviors. This journey has equipped me with the skills to support a wide array of individuals, emphasizing a compassionate, personalized approach to psychotherapy.

Having worked with many clients over the years, I have a good understanding of what human distress looks like. Often, we try to push the difficult feelings (both physical and emotional) aside and just ‘get on with it’. Sure enough, it works for a while, but then there comes a point when the usual coping strategies just stop working, and reaching out for help feels somehow wrong too; life feels stuck in vicious circles. If this sounds frustratingly familiar, then you are not alone. With my extensive experience, I can support you to reach your goals, or simply to figure out together first what the goals might be.
