Codependency Counselling in Southsea

Increase your self-awareness and observe the circumstances that may trigger your discomfort and find alternative coping strategies for similar situations.

Should I talk to someone about this? If you have found yourself on this page, it is likely that you have had this thought. Perhaps you have experienced a distressing event or betrayal or have lost the passion in your relationship. Perhaps you are looking for help as a couple or as an individual. Whatever the reason you are seeking help, reaching out is always a brave step. It is helpful to know what to expect.

Therapy can be transformative - so why struggle alone? Whether you are in deep emotional pain, anxious, stressed or perhaps frustrated with your life, exploring the issues in a safe setting can be empowering. In a world that can feel frantic yet lonely, it's hard to dedicate time to yourself. But you are important: you deserve an opportunity to reassess 'how you got here', to be more self-aware and find ways to be truly happy. I offer the chance to be really heard - with empathy and without judgement - in total confidence. We'll work together to understand what is troubling you at a depth, duration and pace that feel right to you.

Are you someone who lies awake at night struggling to make sense of things that are happening in your life?

Is it difficult to express these feelings to friends and family, maybe you are worried about overwhelming other people. If some of this sounds familiar, then contact me. Together we can work on helping you to make sense of your thoughts and feelings, enable you to feel better and move forward with your life.

Do you believe you are doing the best you can but unfortunately often end up experiencing repetitive cycles of hurt and misunderstanding?

I have a special interest in working with adults who have, or think they have, ADHD and autism. Many people have only discovered this late in life. Sometimes after their child has been diagnosed, or due to wondering why they have always felt different to others. This could be a self-diagnosis or an official diagnosis. Has this impacted your feelings about who you are and how you go forward? Maybe you feel anxious, overwhelmed, depressed or confused. Are your relationships affected? I work with couples when one is neurodivergent, the other is neurotypical, or both are neurodivergent.

Whether it's anxiety, low-mood, a relationship difficulty or something else, you are probably wanting to find practical strategies and tools to make life work better for you.

I have private and NHS experience working with clients with a wide variety of issues, such as anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, bereavement, self-harm, relationship issues, domestic abuse, weight loss, chronic pain, and PTSD. Some clients have a good understanding of their issues and what they want to achieve, whereas others are not so sure and want help to find these things out. Whilst some issues are fairly clear cut, others can be more complex and have been present for a long time. Regardless of this, all of my clients have wanted to make changes that will improve their situation and help them to enjoy life.

A warm welcome to my page, life can seem extremely difficult at times as we may face situations that are challenging to deal with either on our own or in our relationship. This can leave us feeling quite vulnerable and alone in the world, and may be caused by situations that seem out of our control. Together we can explore the emotions you are feeling, I will help you to unravel all the sad and negative thoughts that keep ruminating within you giving you those difficult feelings to deal with. I will do so in a supportive and empathic way so you no longer feel alone with your struggles.

My clients often feel painfully stuck in some way and that's why they come to me. Problems become overwhelming. For instance, being unhappy in a marriage; having a serious illness and dealing with its effects; feeling low and not understanding why; dealing with divorce; having problems with one's children and not being sure how to manage; wanting to move forward in life but just not managing somehow; work issues - struggles with colleagues, dissatisfaction with a career. Anxiety, depression and confusion usually accompany these challenging life situations.
