Covid-19 has taken us all by storm but I am offering both online and telephone counselling until the world gets back to normal!
About
'I just want to be free from my anxiety.' 'I hate my body and will never be happy with my true self.' Maybe it's crippling anxiety where you're fearful of every situation, whether it's the now or related to a past trauma. Perhaps you lack confidence in body & self, disliking yourself and feeling like you don't know who you are which causes you to be afraid to be your true self. Perhaps it's attachment patterns in relationships, fear of trusting due to being let down & abandoned, the terror of ending up hurt and alone. Well, I can help. After all, Tom, Dick or Harry telling us that 'It'll be okay' is well meaning but does it help?
Together we will explore the anxiety by looking at how if feel's, what it's about & where it's coming from, allowing you to take control. In relationships we can look at the past, where you were let down & hurt & see how this emerges in present attachments. We will explore you, allowing you to understand your true self & ultimately be happy within body/self!
Who I am as Barry is who I am as a counsellor; warm, friendly, occasionally funny & human. With me, you can be you, all in a safe & non judgemental space where I will listen & allow you to express yourself with zero judgement & understanding, whatever your issues. We will build a therapeutic relationship where you will go at YOUR own pace in your own time.
