Counselling in DA12

Welcome Have you experienced situations that have left you troubled or suffering from stress, anxiety, feeling depressed or lonely. Maybe from a separation, divorce or bereavement. You may not really understand why you feel this way or perhaps even understand who you are? There are times in our lives where we all experience life situations and events that may leave us feeling overwhelmed. It may create anger, anxiety, stress and a feeling of powerless within your daily routine. These times can be very lonely and difficult to cope with.

Choosing the right counsellor for YOU is a daunting task. Do you go with the profile picture and the smile, the blurb, the qualifications or the experience? We all look for different things in a person and choosing a stranger that you may want to tell your innermost thoughts and feelings to is HUGE. I specialise in Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), using the Rewind Technique where a client can gain closure to traumatic events. Rewind can be completed in 2-3 sessions, where involuntary recall and avoidance behaviour can stop. There is no disclosure in Rewind; there is closure without disclosure. See my website for costs.

Deciding to attend therapy is a difficult and brave decision. It is important that you find a therapist with whom you can feel comfortable in being your authentic self, I aim to provide you with that experience. I believe there is no position or age from which positive change cannot be made and will support you in the process. Alternatively, if you have a goal that you wish to achieve, either personally or professionally, it is vital you find someone who can bring energy, enthusiasm and pragmatism to your sessions. I also have experience in the corporate space and provide seminars on a number of issues and coaching for groups.

When we try to surpress strong emotions, they have a nasty habit of impacting on our lives in other ways through our behaviours. We can try to ignore them or numb them but they are still there. After a while the pressure grows and it starts to impact on those around us, our jobs, our families. You may feel alone and isolated and struggling to find the answer.

Does life feel overwhelming or out of control? Feeling stuck and want a more fulfilling future? I offer a confidential and safe therapeutic environment for children, adults and couples to explore and process the difficulties you are facing, at your own pace. Counselling focuses on your future and moving past any blocks that prevent you from living your life how you wish. Together we will explore your present difficulties, as well as past experiences that have led to your current situation. This provides the opportunity to gain a deeper insight and understanding of yourself as well as your current challenges.

I am an Integrative counsellor which means that I use a variety of counselling approaches dependant on your needs and what you want to achieve in the counselling process. Throughout the process you decide what you want to talk about and the pace you want to go. I will listen to you and help you to express and understand your emotions. Sometimes I use writing, drawing and toys to help you express difficult emotions. I have experience in helping people who want to talk through issues of Spirituality, especially their Christian faith.

I'm here to support client's who have challenging lives which are affected by anxiety disorders, depression, bereavement or who feels stuck in their relationship patterns. We build our attachment styles from a young age. We can find ourselves stuck in the same attachment patterns as we get older. I have supported clients to face their own attachment fears that impact their personal relationships. Also worked with clients who have self-harm and suicidal ideation and supported them to face their missing voids.

I offer a Counselling service to individuals, young people and families who may be facing personal difficulties and challenges. We all experience painful events and losses at various times in our lives and Counselling creates a safe containing space for clients to explore and process their emotions on a range if issues that may be impacting on them negatively. This can help clients to identify their triggers which may be responsible for creating the emotional and or physical distress. It also helps develop some strategies for clients to have at their disposal to manage better the impacts of the distress being experienced.

I am a warm, compassionate, and open-minded clinical psychologist who works collaboratively with his clients to identify and build on strengths, values and resources whilst working towards positive change.

Over the last 15 years of helping people overcome anxiety, I understand what a struggle it can be, I also know anxiety is not a life sentence. I have worked with many people and one common thread is anxiety prevents them from enjoying day to day life, however it doesn’t have to be that way. Anxiety can come and go, at times it may be worse but that also means it can get better and as an experienced therapist, I know what works. So whilst change might seem daunting, being under prolonged stress due to anxiety is also hard work, it is tiring and it is frustrating. Working together we can learn new, more effective ways of living.
