Counselling in HA2

Sometimes life can seem overwhelming and we can be dealing with something painful. We all have times when we need emotional support. You do not have to struggle alone. Often it is only when we talk to someone unconnected with our lives that we begin to hear what we are really saying and feeling. I offer a safe, unjudgemental and confidential space for you to work through what is troubling you and will support you as you find new ways forward.

Life throws us challenges that are tough to get through! Sometimes we just need someone to talk to - Someone to listen - Someone, to help us to make sense of what is happening or has happened in our lives now and most importantly how we can move forward…

Does your current relationship feel difficult, complicated and stressful? Even though relationships are the cornerstone of our lives, they aren't always easy and can sometimes feel like an endless cycle of misunderstanding, blame and resentment. If your relationship leaves you feeling stressed, lonely and emotionally exhausted, then relationship counselling can be helpful. It can give you a safe space where you can explore couple dynamics and build an intentional relationship that is meaningful and rewarding.

I am an integrative therapist using different models of therapy to support my clients find solutions to their presenting issues. Working with clients who have suffered a bereavement, anxiety, depression, stress, working with relationship issues and those who have a diagnosis of Autism or ADHD. Working towards a planned goal, with steps that are able to show improvement or that you have reached your goal. Understanding why you want to achieve your goal/s will help you to make the steps to achieving them and provide you with strategies to support.

Distress comes in many forms, many ways, and many times in life. Sometimes you will need help and support to reflect on the distress and seek not only an understanding of your distress but discover ways of adjusting and coping with it. In the long term, you will want to develop resilience to be able to cope with the distress as it inevitably arises.

All First Sessions - £40 NHS & Harley Street Experience. Sometimes life can be overwhelming and we can be dealing with something and you may just feel stuck and unable to break out of the cycle. You may need to talk to someone to help understand your thought patterns and change them. It is okay to not have the answers, counselling, and CBT is an opportunity to look at yourself with honesty and start making changes.

Life is a journey and we all choose how to embark upon it. Choices have consequences and it is the consequences that many people have most difficulty dealing with. The need for personal fulfillment and quality of life are ever more apparent in the current global climate. As an experienced Psychotherapist and Life Coach, I have enabled people to examine their lives and ultimately make choices that they can live with. My clients and I have successfully resolved a very broad range of issues, including: *Life changes (redundancy; divorce) *Abuse *Depression *Bereavement *Loneliness *Anxiety *Poor Relationships *Terminal Illness

I aim to establish a safe, non-judgemental space with clients where difficult issues and problems can be explored, free from the demands of the outside world. I have a psychodynamic approach which means I help clients work through the underlying causes at the root of problems to enable them to gain more self-awareness and a different perspective on their life. Also, with a background as a Samaritan volunteer for many years, I have offered emotional support to people from many walks of life suffering from distress caused by a wide range of difficult issues.

I am very good at working at confidence building and at unlocking some communication problems such as mutism. I can work with adults and children. My background is working with adult mental health with art materials to express unconscious and otherwise unobtainable material which can help the person to reintegrate things which have been lost. I also have experience working with children in primary schools. I am good at enlivening and empowering people to seek and meet their goals and overcome obstacles as I am strong and resilient and very supportive.

As a Counsellor I work in a client led approach empathically catering towards the clients needs and goals. My approach is Psychodynamic that means I can help clients deal with the unresolved issues of their past to possibly make sense with the present. Life can be confusing and scary at times making one feel stuck and lost, much like being in a storm .I can help clients find their way through the storm so that they can eventually achieve some sort of clarity and begin to cope with the challenges of every day life.

Welcome! I have been working as a counsellor and psychotherapist since 2001 and work as a supervisor too with practices in both Exeter and London. I believe that many of our difficulties develop as a result of our early life and past experiences, including trauma. We repeat patterns in our lives in the hope that things will get resolved. Therapy offers, in a confidential and safe space, the possible facilitation of being able to recognise these patterns and approach them from a new perspective.

Reasons for coming to Therapy are unique to each person. You may have hopes and desires to be a better version of yourself, a willingness to change, to face the difficulties that may obstruct your personal growth. Life’s challenges may leave you anxious, stressed or depressed, feeling stuck, unable to move forward, alone with unwanted thoughts and feelings. Patterns in your life can keep you in a cycle of inner conflict and, at times, relationship conflicts, not knowing why. Talking to someone is a great way to start. Please don’t choose to fight this alone; it’s time to give yourself the time and space to explore.

Hello and welcome. As your counsellor I can help you to understand and make sense of your thoughts and feelings. This is done through exploring what you’re finding difficult, and unpacking this further. Do you feel you need a safe and confidential space where you can open up, be heard and listened to without fear of judgement? Do you need a space to be heard, are you struggling to cope with the pressures of daily life? Have you suffered a bereavement, or is anxiety taking control? I would like to help you find your voice, to give you a space where you can begin to express yourself, and process what’s going on for you.

Sometimes life gets in the way and we need to pause and get a deeper understanding to be able to grow. Engaging with psychotherapy can help gain insight and clear one’s mind to make the appropriate decisions. Psychotherapy is a journey that can be hard at times but its long term benefits are worth the effort. I am a psychodynamic Counsellor psychotherapist, I work with issues such as anxiety, depression, cultural issues, and relationships. You can book a consultation to discuss your issues and current dilemmas. I provide open ended and time-limited therapy in a confidential environment.

I can help you overcome personal difficulties induced by anxiety, stress, depression, bereavement, panic attacks, abuse, addictions, trauma, relationship breakdown and general psychological difficulties. In a warm, caring, respectful and safe space, where you can freely explore your challenges without fear of judgment. So that you can overcome them, emotionally move on and empowered to be the best of yourself.

Our past impacts on our present and it can often be confusing and conflicting in our adult responses to current problems. When we cannot make sense of our own thoughts or responses, when our behaviour troubles us or is repetitive. Within the therapeutic process, control is taken back and the symptomatic behaviour in time can be renegotiated and become less powerful. My training is Psychodynamic but with many years of CPD (continuing professional development) I will adapt my style to what will be most helpful to you and what you bring to the sessions. Psychodynamic therapy involves working with the unconscious.
