Over the years most of the client issues I have encountered encompass loss and control in some way, shape or form. Many clients feel out of control, and helpless or in complete despair, and would like to be able to clear a pathway for themselves to work out a more manageable way of living with less anxiety. Clients want to be listened to, and for some that is a rare luxury as friends and family often have their own agenda. Regular reviews to reflect where a client is, in relation to their therapy journey are part of the therapeutic process and help to build trust and structure.

Are there issues in your life, past or present, that you haven't addressed. Are these issues preventing you from moving forward in your life, relationship or work. I am a trained Counsellor with eleven years experience. it is a requirement to undergo our own individual therapy when training therefore I am very aware that one of the most important decisions, in choosing a therapist, is to be able to connect with them. I am also aware, having been on the other side of the room how difficult it can be to open up our lives, past and present, to a stranger. Reaching out for help at a difficult time in our lives is not easy.

Do you feel unfulfilled, unhappy, unwell (Dr has given the 'all clear') or unsure why you keep reacting in certain ways?

Everyone experiences challenges and difficulties at various times in their life and it can be comforting to know that we don’t have to get through it on our own. Sometimes we just need someone impartial and compassionate to just listen to us confidentially and not judge us; to help us express and let go of our feelings and thoughts in a safe space. Other times we need help to make sense of past events or to manage difficult emotions. And then we need to move forwards… so having someone to support us who we already trust, can be really useful to make lasting changes.

Feel like you've lost sight of who you are? The confidence you felt has faded away? Perhaps you find yourself able to make strides at work but within your personal life, you want to find that spark and strength again. You're fed up with feeling as though you shrink within relationships, and the thought of saying 'No' leaves you feeling sick with worry. Are you tired of feeling as though you deserve more, but clinging to the breadcrumbs currently offered to you - you wish you were better at voicing what you really want or need?

Are you feeling exhausted from constant worries and feeling like anxiety is taking over many parts of your life? Perhaps the panic attacks you’ve been experiencing are impacting what you used to love? Maybe you are feeling so overwhelmed that even daily tasks are becoming too much. Is your emotions impacting your relationships or perhaps triggering you to act impulsively? I advocate for finding balance in your life – being 100% calm all the time isn’t actually what we strive for because let’s face it, it’s not possible. However, it’s perfectly reasonable to want a life that is free from constant uncomfortable emotions and pain.
