Afrikaans Counselling in Portsmouth

I am an experienced psychotherapist with UK qualifications in Psychology and Psychotherapy and over 20 years working in the world of relationships, sexuality and wellbeing. I help individuals, couples and other relationship groups deal with struggles, development, change and loss within their relationships and personally. Most of my clients are trying to overcome problems in relationship with themselves and/or others. I use an integrated approach to psychotherapy, leaning heavily towards Relational Life Therapy which is always underpinned by current psychological research.

My counselling service offers a safe space to build your confidence, improve your coping skills and express your thoughts and feelings. It provides a connection with someone you trust who can help you move forward when you are stuck or in pain. I offer confidential, caring and compassionate counselling when you need direction and support.

It is important that you always feel in control of your process and that it is meaningful and beneficial to you. This includes consideration and respect for your culture, religion, sexual and self-identity. An essential element of this will be the relationship you are able to build with your therapist. My therapeutic approach is collaborative and aims to empower you with the self-awareness, knowledge and skills to make the decisions and changes that are important and useful to you. I will offer a non-judgmental and supportive space for you to explore your past, present and plan your future.

Asking for help is not an easy step to take. The prospect of sharing your thoughts and feelings with someone else is quite a leap of faith and if you have not experienced counselling before you may be wondering what to expect. I would like to offer you a comfortable space where we can talk and get to know each other; and when you are ready, we can start to explore and make sense of your thoughts and personal difficulties, working entirely at your own pace. By exploring our past experiences and relationships we can often gain a new and fresh perspective on our issues which can lead to a deeper understanding of ourselves.

I help my clients work through tough times in their lives. Typically my clients come to me for a variety of challenges including but not limited to depression, anxiety, panic attacks, feelings of low mood or high stress. I help men and women predominantly work through anger issues, challenges around trauma, boundary setting and addiction as well.

I offer confidential, client focused psychotherapy, Face-Face & Zoom worldwide . Through dialogue and the shared exploration of your life, you may find relief from recurring problems, live your life more fully and realise your full potential. Therapy is a personal and individual process of change, as well as understanding. This is an opportunity to take time and space to think about yourself and the problems you may be facing. By talking to a trained psychotherapist you may find it easier to understand how past experiences, thought patterns and behaviour, or anxieties about the future are causing difficulties in your daily life.

Do you walk on eggshells in certain relationships? Do you struggle to say no or set boundaries. Do you feel like your reality is being questioned? Have you been in a relationship that has been verbally abusive? Do you not have control of your finances, or personal decision making? Do conversations sound like they are 'crazy making' or going in circles. Sometimes we feel like we have lost ourselves in our relationships. Or we have experienced significant psychological abuse in the past. I help people make sense of their experiences in a safe and nurturing environment. You are not alone and can improve your life.

Are you going through a difficult and overwhelming time in your life right now? Are you experiencing a painful loss, or are you going through a difficult time adjusting to change? During these times, it is helpful to talk to someone who is really listening, who can come alongside you, help you to make sense of what you're feeling, and help you to find your way through. I work with young people (16+) and adults.

All of us need to feel safe and sometimes, even those who always seem in control need someone that can really listen. Do you feel confused, stuck or worried, anxious or depressed? Do you struggle with focus, motivation and feel you just can't reach your goals? Do you need someone that can help you to make sense of what is going on for you and in your relationships? Maybe you have been waiting for ever to be seen by CAMHS or Adult Mental Health Services? Maybe you have focus and drive, but want someone to guide you to become even better at your work, sport, or relationship. Please contact me so that we can schedule a meeting.
