Counselling provides a special, regular space for
children
and young people to come to. It’s a place where they can talk, think, draw, play, or creatively explore some of their worries and problems, through the supportive relationship with me, their counsellor. I have a wide range of art, play, sensory and literary materials for them to make use of. This unique process can help them to explore things and view things differently. Counselling is about helping
children
and young people to discover who they are and how they are managing in their world. It can be a very positive and empowering journey for them to go on.

My ideal client is someone who will be honest with me in order for us to work together. I enjoy working with clients who are not really sure why they feel the way they do, but know that something is not quite right and feel the need to investigate this further. I have a particular interest and expertise in working with clients who have anxiety, depression, lack of self confidence and body image issues along with relationship difficulties. I work with clients to identify their needs and goals to create a unique personal treatment plan in order for them to reach their goals within a sensible time frame.

I offer individual counselling in Frome - Somerset. You might be experiencing some kind of emotional distress, whether through a life experience, or maybe you are experiencing low self-esteem. You might be having issues such as anxiety or depression, or you might be struggling to come to terms with the impact of them from the past. It might be that you would like to change things in your life, or you may find yourself generally feeling unhappy or uncomfortable and aren't quite sure why. These feelings and experiences can become very overwhelming and difficult to deal with on your own.

If you're reading this, then you're most likely struggling right now. You might be feeling anxious, depressed or low. You may be angry, sad or stressed by a certain situation in your life. Maybe you've lost direction and meaning, and feel stuck as a result. Or lost someone important to you, either through a bereavement or relationship breakdown. Feelings of despair, fear or hurt can be overwhelming. But...you've started the process of addressing these issues by looking for a counsellor. You've taken the first step. Together, in a collaborative effort, we can look at what is bothering you and attempt to find a way through.

Are you or your
child
struggling? At times we can all experience anxiety, stress, depression, feeling sad, anger or family or relationship issues which make us feel alone. Sometimes we can become trapped by this and feel unable to move forward, whatever age we are! If this is you, you are not alone. The most up to date statistics tell us that one in four people will experience anxiety or depression at some point in their lives. Together we will seek to understand the problem you are facing whether this is caused by current issues or events from your past. We will find new ways and skills to deal with your feelings.

Sophie Rhys-Williams
Counsellor, BACP
The most important element of counselling is the connection you have with your counsellor. I know how important it is for you to feel heard, validated, and aligned with the person you are choosing to trust. I started training as a therapist eight years ago, at aged twenty, as I wanted to help people in a more in depth way. I have since then enjoyed helping a wide range of people from all walks of life get to a better psychological and emotional pIace, with most of my experience focussing on working with
children
& young adults (12-30).

Healing Steps Counselling
Counsellor, MSc, MBACP
Verified
I have experience in a wide range of issues: Affairs and betrayals; Anger; Anxiety;
Child
related; Caring for others; Confidence; Depression; Family; Low self esteem; Relationships; Self Harm; Separation and divorce; Sexual, mental and/or physical abuse; Stress; Suicidal thoughts/ family history of suicide; Trauma; Work stress; Fertility/Infertility.
I am a warm hearted, open-minded individual who understands how difficult taking the first steps into counselling can sometimes be. Many people have 'life events' that bring them to counselling such as relationship breakdown, bereavement, or redundancy. Often feelings that accompany these life events can lead to depression and anxiety. Or it may be that suppressed or undesired feelings keep recurring, leading to painful repeating patterns of behavior or outcomes in your life. My role in your therapeutic journey is to facilitate your awareness, to gently challenge perspective where appropriate and to walk alongside you at your pace.
