Counselling in Dartford

We ALL have difficulties of one kind or another throughout our lives… some things are easier to deal with than others and many of us could do with a trusting, non-judgemental relationship with a caring professional who can enable, guide, and support you through such difficult times. Therapy will give you the opportunity to be heard, to reflect, question, process, analyse, and heal, allowing for change(s) in your inner and outer world.

Are you unable to move on? Are you being triggered not fully understanding why you react, often caught in a repeated upsetting memory or memories and unable to shake its grasp? Do you feel misunderstood, confused, angry, and isolated? Do your loved ones and friends comment on how you've changed? Sounds familiar? You may be suffering from PTSD, grief or trauma. Don't despair. There is hope. As a qualified mental health practitioner and trauma therapist I have worked with people like you. Some have experienced violent crime, domestic violence, sexual assault, road traffic accidents, bullying, abuse, neglect or complex military trauma.

Sometimes life can seem "too much".  Maybe you are feeling stuck and not sure how to move forward?  If you are in a place of overwhelm, counselling can help you to talk through your feelings, explore who you are and learn to cope with the struggles that life can bring. I offer a calm and supportive space where I will listen without judgement, something which can be difficult to find when confiding in friends or family. I currently work with adults and young people over 16.

Has life become unmanageable? Are you struggling with relationships, feeling low and overwhelmed? Do you have no idea why you feel this way? At times life can become overwhelming. You are not alone, we all have times when we feel we cannot control or understand our emotions resulting in behaviours that confuse us. At Hear to Help we can offer a warm, safe space for you to explore what has been going on and help gain the strength to choose how to move forward. ​

Don't despair, help is at hand" I have been an integrative therapist for over ten years and lecture at Inter- Psyche, Kent and Medway NHS Trust. I work with children and adults, in couples or individually. I utilise an array of counselling approaches as I believe not one method is superior to another and that we are all unique individuals.I have helped my clients understand themselves better, be it overcoming depression, loss, anxiety or improving their personal relationships. What to expect: Counselling is about building a trusting relationship. To help you feel safe and secure I provide a boundaried, respectful, confidential and non-discriminative alliance. At the end of our first session I always ask “do you feel you can work with me”, as it is important that you feel comfortable and safe. Due to the busyness of modern day life and people being constantly on the move, I am able to accommodate this by offering skype or telephone sessions. Next step Seeking help is often the hardest part yet I would like to commend you on your courage for taking this first step. Get in touch so we can start this journey together.

We may use different words to describe what's going on for us when we are looking for therapy: unsure, fed up, low, empty, frustrated, anxious, panicky, over-thinking, unable to sleep, too sensitive, or like can't carry on... Perhaps feeling not in control, not belonging, invisible or wanting to escape, or lost. It can be overwhelming, taking too much from us. So starting therapy is right. We can use therapy space, free of judgement, expectation or failure, to talk it all through and work things out.
