People may see you and think you are so positive and cheerful, but inside you are relentlessly beating yourself up and frustrated that
life
is not going your way. Struggled with anxiety, panic attacks, substance misuse and depression for far to long? Due to perfectionism, anxiety, people-pleasing, and other self-sabotaging habits that have taken over until you can hardly recognise yourself. I will support you in learning how to integrate a calm perspective, mindfulness and increase your ability to manage emotional reactivity in peak times of high stress and anxiety.

In my experience one main aspect of Counselling that contributes hugely to it being a truly positive
life
changing endeavour is the fact that, as a client, you have the opportunity to be a part of a unique, unconditional, pure therapeutic relationship, free of the usual emotional transactions and pressures you may be experiencing in your everyday
life
.
Text/Call. Having been a client myself in the past, I have a strong appreciation of how difficult and painful
life
can be at times and the benefits of being able to explore what is going on for you in a totally non-judgmental, deeply empathic and confidential space, which is for you and you alone. I am an integrative counsellor and psychotherapist which means I am qualified and experienced in working with a range of strategies, techniques and modalities, depending on your specific needs. The therapeutic relationship we will share is central to the work we will do together in order to help you explore and resolve your issues.

Because of the fact that I have been through many
life
events and many difficulties, I do appreciate how complicated living can be.
Hi, I am Mariam, a senior psychotherapist, supervisor and clinical Hypnotherapist, in my experience clients come to therapy because they are either overwhelmed due to recent events in their lives or have been carrying unresolved conscious or unconscious ordeals or traumas. The goal of therapy should always include self-knowledge and self-healing. coming closer to self will help us to come closer to others. As part of this, it is important for all of us to have empathy towards ourselves. So the ultimate goal of therapy should be to gain self-love.

Childhood trauma, unhealthy patterns, addiction and trauma can all result in unresolved pain. Being able to explore that pain in a non judgemental, confidential, empathic space can be an essential
life
changing experience. Many clients come to therapy wanting change and emotional health, awareness of where that pain comes from and the journey to understand its impact on our lives today is a crucial part of healing. Often our trauma is not recognised, believed or simply understood. Yet we're living with the impact of these issues. It takes courage to acknowledge our pain but for those who can it can give us the tools to change.

I also work with trauma, and am an Advanced EMDR Practitioner and trained in Clinical Sexology. Struggles in relationships can often be a cause to come to therapy and all my training and experience encompasses both communication with others, but more importantly ourselves. My aim as a therapist is to help you work through what fears or beliefs keep you stuck, and bring your attention to what you hope for, identifying how your strengths can help you achieve the goal you are aiming for.

Having a confidential, listening and non- judgement ear is perfect in times of challenge. This can be hard to find amongst family and friends, due to the occupied lifes we lead. Thankfully there is a space here for you to talk, if you want it. As you share the detail of your concerns, together we will journey the highs and lows towards your desired outcomes. I will give value and acknowledgment, as well as show compassion. Our formed relationship will then bring forth insights that give you understanding, motivate change, allow you to experience acceptance and strengthen your mind. This experience is empowering and self satisfying.

My ideal client is people who want fulfilment in their love, work and friendship
life
. This fulfilment is possible when there is a feeling of belonging in these three areas. However, this feeling of belonging is achievable through making meaningful contributions. Moreso, this contribution is achieved when they dare to be authentic.

The decision whether a particular treatment or intervention is suitable for you is guided by the reasons help is being sought and the impact on your
life
.
‘We all need someone to talk to some of the time’ and across the multi-dimensional layers of personality and global connectedness, to be human means we will be faced with situations and events during our lifetime that we believe a hundred percent, we will have little or no chance of sorting out or finding solutions to. The truism is there are always solutions, some more easily achievable and likeable, others less so. Nonetheless these too are solutions and place ALL at the doorway of all possibility. The wisdom then is to stand in the doorway to commence the healing transformations of finding answers and pathways towards resolution.

Hi, welcome. I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your story. Perhaps you are intrigued in deprogramming previous patterns that you feel do not serve you? Creating a new foundation that starts internally and has a positive ripple effect on those close to you and around you. There are times when everyone experiences challenging and distressing feelings which can interfere with everyday
life
and relationships. That is when it can be helpful to talk things through with a completely neutral person who you know will be supportive and respond non-judgmentally.

At some time or another, we all need additional help in dealing with the difficulties that
life
can bring. Modern, fast-paced living is often overwhelming and so making choices that are beneficial for us becomes more challenging. We often find ourselves taking decisions that move us away from who we truly are and the
life
we want to lead. Through therapy we can explore what has brought you to where you are now, what is no longer working for you and how to facilitate a shift towards a preferred present and future.

Life Coaching Counsellors
What can I expect from life coaching?
Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.
Can a life coach help treat anxiety?
Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.
Can life coaching be done online?
Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.
How long does life coaching last?
Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
