Codependency Counselling in Tonbridge

Everyone's life experience is unique and important and often this can create questions in our minds on how these influence our life and choices now. These may be questions from childhood, trauma based, gender or sexuality questioning, anxiety, loss or a neurodiversity. You may feel that the day-to-day is simply overwhelming or tainted by those life experiences. Sometimes, when those hard times flow into our every day life it may feel that you are unable to be happy, think clearly or feel able to cope. In the safety of your own home (or a space that works for you) we can explore and process this together.

I am Dr Diana Goldsmith, a Chartered Clinical Psychologist registered with the Heath and Care Professions Council (HCPC). I am Clinical Director and Senior Psychologist for Foundations Child & Family Therapy – www.foundationschildtherapy.co.uk- a psychological therapies service offering UK-wide psychological therapy and clinical supervision. We offer support for children, young people and their families. We also offer ADHD and ASD assessments and follow-up post-diagnostic services.

I offer safe, professional video-call or face-to-face sessions at my consulting room in Tonbridge. Combining a client-led approach with a range of methods, we can work together to help you find relief from anxiety, anger, feeling ‘different’, low self-esteem, family and relationship problems or the tendency to behave in ways that are harmful to yourself or other people. I believe that each of us shares one basic desire - to discover and live to our fullest potential. This can mean to have more self-confidence, to worry less or simply to feel more accepting of yourself and the world around you. Contact me to arrange a consultation.

At various points in our lives, we all experience feelings, thoughts and events that we find challenging. You may be feeling anxious or depressed, finding it difficult to come to terms with something that has happened in the past, or worried about what the future will bring. Perhaps you feel stuck in a difficult situation, or caught between what seem like impossible choices. You may be seeking an opportunity to think about who you are, what is important to you, and the kind of life you want to lead.

I work with adults and teenagers in Tunbridge Wells and the surrounding areas. My style of counselling is built using the foundation of the Humanistic approach. This uses my genuine, empathic, non-judgemental qualities to create a secure, supportive relationship with my clients.

Who am I: First of all, "welcome" and thank you for taking some time to read about me and my way of helping and supporting you in a therapeutic journey of self development and change, whether that be for yourself, yourself and a partner or your family. I am a fully qualified and experienced integrative counsellor and a registered member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP). My philosophy of counselling is based on the person as a whole - working on the mind, body and emotions.

Any of us can feel stuck, sad, lost and seemingly unable to move forward. Making sense of these feelings is critical to our both physical and emotional wellbeing. Impact Wellbeing works with you :an individual, a group, a team to explore ways to positively impact your world. Something small can appear to have led to a spiralling out of control by you /someone you care for /work with; you may feel unable to understand why someone self harms ; making sense of why someone took or tried to take their life by suicide, and there are few places to go to; we are here to help you make sense. What impacts your wellbeing matters.

I am here to support you with a wide range of issues from anxiety to anger, bereavement to low mood. I specialise in relationships, working with individuals and couples on infidelity, intimacy, communications, relationship anxiety, wider family dilemmas and many more. I also specialise in compulsive sexual behaviours ("sex addiction"). I will work with you to address your challenges in the here and now, whilst also helping to shed a light on the root causes. Together, we will also explore what a happy future may look like. No two people are the same and so my counselling offer is bespoke for you rather than an off the shelf model.
