Adoption Counselling in Knaresborough

Feeling safe to open up and explore the issues that bring you to counselling is important to me. I have over 12 years experience working as a counsellor with Adult clients working short term, long term and open ended. Together we will work on the issues that bring you to counselling, creating a safe space for you to develop your understanding and validate your thoughts and feelings. Creating and reaching your goals in a number of sessions you are comfortable with, or working towards these in an open way ensures you work within your boundaries. We can talk through any challenges you may face and have an initial free consultation.

At a pace to suit you we can work together in making the changes in your life that can help you feel more in control and at ease

Feeling sad, traumatised or disconnected from the world, or perhaps struggling with unhelpful behaviours leaving you feeling anxious and low. This often is a result of conflict with the relationship with ourselves or others, at work or at home. Relational conflict with partners, parents, friendships and colleagues can make us feel vulnerable, unsafe and unable to cope. Clients tend to be the best expert on their experience and often understand what's concerning them but are stuck and unable to find a way through. It takes courage to face into some of our issues but recognising we have them is the hardest part.
