Are you looking for a counsellor because you are feeling stuck and unable to stop behaving in unhelpful old patterns? You may have an idea of how you would like to be, but don’t know how to get there. You may find it hard to fit in and connect to people, feeling that everyone else is doing it better. You may be finding it hard to accept yourself as you are and be wondering what you have to offer. Anxiety and depression make it difficult to move away from this place. If you are on the autistic spectrum, these problems can be magnified. Finding a way out of this on your own can seem impossible.
Whilst you will be really keen to change, we will work towards you becoming more aware of how you are right now. The difficulties you are experiencing will have developed for good reasons in response to your life so far. As we work together to help you accept that, so it becomes clearer that there are more choices available to you.
I see my role as being similar to that of an archaeologist. You know much more about yourself than I ever can, but over the years your defences have settled like sand over parts of yourself you have forgotten exist. I look forward to helping you gently sweep away the sand so that you can rediscover those parts, enabling new ways of being to emerge.
