Aviva Counselling in Witney
All manner of emotions leave an impression deep inside. Somehow we seemingly put it all into a manageable place and move on. But then something triggers us whereby we feel unable to manage our emotions. I have experienced such feelings and sought professional help in the past. I process my work and self with my Clinical Advisor on a regular basis. It has been 20 plus years since I qualified as a Person Centred counsellor and then as a nurse. Having been involved with nursing and Hospice bereavement support in the past I believe in the power of listening with empathy to each persons story and together for better resolution.

Anxiety, depression and difficult childhoods lead to misery and suffering, affecting relationships, careers, self-esteem. I help people suffering with anxiety, depression and/or childhood trauma to have better relationships with themselves and others and lead fulfilling lives. We would explore together what has led you to suffer currently and to build up greater awareness of triggers and emotions. In turn this gives you choices over how to respond to situations in ways that are healthy. I offer a bespoke approach to support you during this process.

You may be a parent who has noticed something shifting in your child, withdrawal, anxiety, anger, or sadness. Or you may be a teenager or young adult struggling to make sense of feelings that feel too big or too hard to put into words. Perhaps things have happened that were never really spoken about. Perhaps life looks fine from outside, but something feels persistently wrong. You have probably tried to manage alone for a while and you may be tired of that. What you are looking for is not a quick fix, but a space to think, to be truly heard, and to begin to understand what is happening.

I am a registered health professional with Bupa, AXA Health, Aviva and Vitality.
Hello and welcome. There are many difficulties we can face which make life feel harder to manage. At different times we all experience challenges with managing our mental and emotional wellbeing - perhaps in relation to significant life events, work, transitions, accidents or illnesses. Often we draw on our usual ways of coping to get us through, but sometimes it can be helpful to make sense of our experiences with someone who can offer a non-judgmental, compassionate space which is entirely yours.

Therapist for people with anxious attachment and abandonment wounds who feel stuck in overthinking and easily triggered in relationships and at work. You may struggle with jealousy, fear of rejection, and worry about losing connection. In relationships, this can show up as fear of being left or losing yourself. At work, it often looks like perfectionism, self-doubt, and overthinking or taking things personally. We work with your triggers and the patterns underneath them so you feel more secure in yourself and better able to soothe and steady your emotions before reacting.

I'm registered with major insurance providers including Aviva, AXA PPP, Cigna, General & Medical and WPA.
Do you often hear yourself say "I can't do it anymore"? And yet you carry on...
If you're an autistic professional in your 40s or beyond, decades of masking at work and at home may have led to burnout.
You manage relentless demands: the technical complexity, the ever-present urgency, the performative socialising. All that drains you. You wonder whether it will ever end. Resentment and frustration become harder to keep in...Sometimes you explode in anger or you stop speaking.
What you crave is peaceful solitude to engage with your deep interests, be it code, research or another passion. But there's never time, never space.
