Hello, I am Aldona. You are here so maybe it means you are thinking about counselling or psychotherapy. Investing in mental health is as important as physical. Anybody can benefit from therapy no matter what age or gender you are. It can be very rewarding because it helps you be the person you want to be. In these times of uncertainty, uneasy economic and political situation; isolation, bereavement and also historic emotional issues could be experienced more frequently and intensively. Difficulties experienced for a prolonged time can lead to somatic problems. “A good life is a process, not a state of being" (Carl Rogers)

I have also learnt that creating an environment to help my clients feel safe is essential in building an effective relationship.
Sometimes the battles in our lives feel overwhelming and impossible to share with others. Such feelings can be triggered by a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, abuse (recent or historic), self-esteem and low confidence, relationship issues, or health anxiety. Together we can work through these difficult feelings.

I am integrative in my approach which means I use combined styles and theories focussing on our therapeutic relationship as the key to the work.
Alongside traditional talking, I can offer a creative approach incorporating art, clay and story - sometimes, to start, it can feel easier to express ourselves creatively especially if we feel we don't have the words, or talking hasn't helped before.

Relationships are where we most want to feel close, and where it hurts most when we don't.
With couples, I work on the things that quietly wear a relationship down: communication that turns into conflict, disconnection, and the loss of intimacy . As a trained sex therapist, I hold both the relational and the sexual side of these difficulties, including differences in desire and shame. I offer an affirming space for LGBTQ+ individuals and couples.

Other times it's more about not quite feeling fulfilled in life, career or relationships.
I've worked with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, panic attacks, bereavement, trauma, abuse, problems at school, college or university, family and relationship difficulties, and issues around gender, sexuality and identity. I'm interested in hearing about what moves and inspires you, as well as the difficulties you might be having.

Anxiety around intimacy, relationships, or sexual concerns is incredibly common, and the overarching impact that these issues can have on your health and happiness is often underestimated and undervalued.
I use the integrative approach to help people to plant their seeds and break through these challenges. My approach involves forming a close working relationship to build a good understanding of your needs and the right methodology. We then work together, in holistic way that ensures you always feel safe, supported and at ease.

FAQ - About Couples Therapy
Does couples counseling work?
Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.

When should a couple seek counseling?
Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.

How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?
The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.

How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?
The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
