Counselling in CM0

There are times when we all find ourselves experiencing challenges and sudden changes to our lives which can raise concerns and feelings of anxiety, depression, stress and loss. Talking to a counsellor can provide you the opportunity to explore you feelings in order to help you resolve these issues enabling you to move forward in your life at a pace that feels right for you. I offer a caring and flexible approach to your individual needs and work with a variety of different approaches which enables me to help you find your own answers and guide you through difficult times.

I am an experienced UKCP registered psychotherapist, working with personal issues such anxiety, depression, bereavement and relationship difficulties. I have experience of working with acute mental health difficulties in the NHS. I work with adults of all ages who might be struggling with life changing events, or long term conditions. I also work with couples who are struggling with their relationship and individuals who may be subjected to coercive control. I am an AXA Healthcare registered practitioner.

Welcome to KJL Counselling. I am a Registered Counsellor, providing advice, support and signposting for issues relating to Mental Health and Child & Family Practice. I have over twenty years of experience working with adults, families and young people experiencing challenges regarding their mental health and emotional wellbeing, specialising in working with Individuals, women and young adults (17yrs +). My approach focuses on integrated styles of working which means I can provide therapy that is tailored to meet each individual’s needs.

Are you struggling with aspects of your life? You may have already tried to talk about it with friends and family but you still feel unresolved. You might have issues that you feel you can only talk about in a safe and confidential space. There may be times when you feel absolutely fine but there are times when you can't cope from within and you don't understand it. We push difficult issues deep into our unconscious but it still influences our conscious lives. Are there significant events from your childhood that you can't find peace with in your present day? This can leave you feeling despair like you have no control.

Everyone is an individual who experiences life and the issues it throws, in very different ways. No 'one' sure way fits all - that is my Moto. We are individuals. Whatever anyone is feeling they shouldn't believe that they can "just cope" because everyone else seems to be doing ok. Its all relative! Depression/anxiety/stress/ lack of self worth and esteem are all problems in todays society and many suffer in silence. You don't need to. Often by talking and getting your problems out in the open is the first step to healing. Their voice to be heard and feelings to be listened to. Trust and the therapeutic relationship are key.

Hi I'm Charlotte and I'm a counsellor that specialises in working with disabled people and people with chronic illnesses. Not only have I studied disability and how it intersects with counselling, my own lived experience adds a further level of understanding to the issues my clients bring. I primarily do telephone and online work via zoom.

Life can sometimes feel confusing and overwhelming, and understanding why and what to do about it is not always easy. I specialise in working with children and young people and have experience in working with a range of difficult and distressing issues through my work in primary and secondary schools. I offer a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space in which your child can make sense of what may be troubling them. I can help them to build coping strategies and resilience so that they can move forward with an increased sense of self-confidence and less conflict.

We help children and young people up to the age of 25 with therapeutic support for a wide range of needs including friendship, school and family issues, difficulties coping with adjustment and changes, worry, anxiety, self-esteem and stress, low mood and social skills. We can also help parents, teachers, young people and children with concerns about learning, including reading and maths difficulties (eg dyslexia). We can support EHCP applications and provide advice, guidance and support for neurodevelopment issues.

I am an Accredited member of the BACP (this means that my 'practice has been deemed to meet the higher standard as a competent, ethical and independent practitioner'.) I have over 20 years experience of working with different client groups, working with clients to address a range of different issues and difficulties. I am experienced at working with men, women and young people. My counselling practice is based from a quiet and calming space (see photos) with free & accessible parking.

As my client, I will provide you with the space and time to talk freely about your thoughts, feelings, history and experiences. By doing this we may learn more about who you are, your behaviour and crucially how you can become happier and more content in your life. I will support you to explore yourself more deeply and identify the hurdles that stand between you and your goals and ideals. My work has helped people who are suffering with prolonged anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, OCD, low self-esteem, disordered eating, feelings of self harm and suicide and with a focus on past trauma amongst other presentations.

At times do you feel overwhelmed by what life throws at you? Is stress making you unable to make decisions? Are you a person who rebukes themselves for making a wrong decision? Are you your own worst critic? Have you noticed that patterns in life are continually repeating themselves? By becoming aware of these cycles, you will be able to prepare yourself with strategies that can break the cycle of repetition that can lead you to becoming empowered in life, taking away the fear of being embarrassed or shamed. I can help you look at making changes and find a way that is customised to support and establish a way forward for.
