Counselling in Basildon

Life can be complicated and challenging leaving us unsure how to deal with it or what to do for the best. I can offer you a safe, non-judgmental and confidential environment to explore and support your thoughts and feelings to enable you to move forward. We will work together to build new positive thought patterns replacing old habits with new solution focused outcomes

Are you feeling anxious, depressed and helpless? Putting on a brave face, I want I help you to change. I will facilitate and support you in a safe, confidential, and compassionate environment; whatever you decide to bring to counselling it will be at your pace. I aim to build a working relationship with you, enabling you to feel comfortable to explore and understand your experiences, thoughts, emotions, and how they can be connected to events in the past or the present. Through this exploration, we can work towards positive change. It may be that you're uncertain of what needs to change or where to begin and that’s okay too.

Hi, i'm Allison. Nice to meet you ! Well done in taking the first step in searching for support. As a Counsellor, I will support you in working through your emotional distress. I will listen to you and accept whatever you bring to counselling and provide you with a safe space to explore your feelings and whatever life's events you are facing. Together we will look at what this means for you, and plan a way forward. It's sometimes hard to think clearly, with the busyness of life but during our sessions, you will have time to think about how you feel and how you would like to move forward with your life.

Everyone is as unique and as individual as the issues, needs and goals that they present with in therapy. My various client's presenting difficulties are often diverse, ranging from those with mild anxiety and low mood - perhaps needing some clarity or direction in life - or maybe just needing to talk things through; to those with heightened symptoms of trauma, depression, distress and generally finding life extremely difficult to manage. The spectrum of emotional wellbeing and mental health is as vast as the various triggers and reasons as to why people initially come to therapy. Coping alone can feel extremely overwhelming.

Are you struggling with high anxiety, repetitive themes and the need to relieve your anxiety with repetitive actions/thoughts? You may feel worried that you are a paedophile? You may be concerned that you will cause harm to a family member, friend or stranger? Do you spend much time ruminating about being gay/straight/transgender despite your own certainty that you are not? Perhaps you're worried that you don't love your partner, even though you know you do? All of these themes are extremely common with OCD. You are not alone. They, and many other themes, can induce a fear of losing control and concerns around being judged.
