Counselling in Coventry

Hi I'm Tash and I'm a fully qualified and accredited Play Therapist & Filali Play Coach. Play is a child's natural language: it speaks the worries and feelings too confusing for words. Where adults may speak about their worries and problems, children can express themselves through play long before they can articulate thoughts and feelings through the complexities of language. Often they do not know the words to describe their internal world but are ready to share it with opportunities through play and creative arts. Play builds trust, tells stories and takes us on brave adventures to wonderful places of safety, hope and happiness.

I am a highly qualified Clinical Supervisor and Counsellor who is passionate about supporting my clients. My aim is to create a trusting, safe and comfortable space for you to be able to express your concerns. By combining my variety of skills and experience, I am able to tailor my therapy to suit your needs. I have experience with children and adolescents (Cover Teacher and Nurture Lead) charities, social services and other agencies), as well as extensive work with adults (including menopause) and couples in my private practice and working with an employee assistance programme.

I offer a welcoming, confidential, non judgemental space for children and young people to explore their thoughts, feelings, relationships and life experiences. Having the space to focus on themselves and process how they think, feel and experience can be transformative and provide relief, clarity and hope. I have a warm and down to earth personality and I respect individual uniqueness and circumstances. I am skilled in building meaningful and trustworthy counselling relationships with children and young people so that they can engage in the therapeutic process and move forward in their lives and their development.

I work with adults and young people from age 11 - aiming to provide a walm welcoming environment to explore any of life's challenges. We all have moments where we need additional support, I can offer compassionate and empathetic understanding of the distress you may be experiencing, I can help you with depression, anxiety, anger, social anxiety, ODC symptoms, low self-esteem or just support you through a challenging time.

Sometimes in life we can be surrounded by people yet feel so alone. When speaking with friends and family you may feel they are not really listening, not realizing they maybe advising, or even competing with your problems. Stress, depression and low self esteem can often make you feel invisible but these feelings are not permanent. Living with shame, anger, fear or sadness can leave you in a dark fog, struggling to find your way through. With help and support your journey may become clearer. I would like to offer you space to talk without feeling judged, pressured or nagged, to experience feeling supported, valued and important.

Sometimes it's hard to know what to do with our difficult thoughts and feelings and this is when counselling can help. I'm an experienced counsellor and psychotherapist working with couples, adults, young people and children. In a safe and confidential space, both EMDR therapy and counselling offer you the chance to feel accepted and understood. Feeling supported to think and talk about what is going on for you is the first step to being able to move forward. Counselling means that you do not have to work it all out on your own. I will be there to support, guide and help you.

At times life can become difficult and challenging and you maybe experiencing overwhelming feelings and struggling to know what to do. This may be impacting your day to day life and could be due to, but not limited to, stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, anger, relationship struggles, the impact of loss or traumatic events. Acknowledging this and letting go of elements which no longer benefit you may not be easy. I understand this and also recognise by contacting me you have reached a point where you would like some support, therefore I aim to respond to your enquiry promptly.

In therapy I work with people to look at, understand and transform the disempowering beliefs they hold about life and themselves. People often find themselves stuck, lose meaning in their life, struggle with relationships, misplace a sense of who they are. I also offer a safe environment for people to look at their anger, including parental anger. I believe each one of us has got a collection of fears, anxieties and vulnerabilities collected since birth. No doubt we deploy any possible resource to defend against or ignore them. I find that psychotherapy's goal is showing a path to a lighter, more peaceful and vital way of being.

Thank you for viewing my profile. This may be your first step in seeking counselling and the beginning of getting you on the road to better mental health. At times, it can help to talk to someone other than family or friends. You may wish to talk about and explore what is troubling you, such as anxiety, depression, anger, gender, low self-esteem, relationships, work/school, bereavement and loss, or other things that are causing you difficulties.
