You have done your utmost to push it all out of your mind and just get on with your life.
You really want help, but what if no one believes you, what if no one can help? You feel like giving up, overwhelmed and hopeless, terrified that this is how life will always be. But this does not have to be the case. I have been where you are, I know what it feels like. With my training and knowledge I have helped myself overcome these same difficulties.

I am I C Counselling specialising in the field of trauma which, I believe is an event or events combined with all the feelings and emotions associated with it, which now negatively impact your life.
However, it is important to highlight that it is not only those who have experienced trauma or addiction who struggle with every day life. We are all on life's journey and sometimes it just gets too difficult for us to cope with alone.

My ideal clients are executives, senior professionals and high achievers who have become so focused on performing well for others that they've lost touch with what they need for themselves. They are often intelligent, self-aware and highly capable — yet find themselves stuck, depleted or quietly anxious in ways they can't easily explain to the people around them.

In my 20 years working as a psychologist I have helped people from many walks of life including teachers, parents, academics, scientists, other psychologists and therapists.
I help people with resilience and wellbeing, as they move out of patterns of behaviour or situations that might feel stuck or unrewarding into lives that are compassionate, intentional and fulfilling. Using approaches from Acceptance and Commitment Coaching and Positive Psychology I help them set meaningful goals and take courageous action towards these.

I'm no stranger to depression and anxiety so I know what it's like to feel stuck, overwhelmed, frustrated by life's challenges knocking us back.
I want to make sure therapy is accessible so I offer evening sessions as well as 'typed / instant messaging' sessions - a great option when engaging in video sessions feels too daunting. Just get in touch if you want to find out more!

Life Coaching Counsellors
What can I expect from life coaching?
Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.

Can a life coach help treat anxiety?
Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.

Can life coaching be done online?
Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.

How long does life coaching last?
Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
