I have supported people when things are feeling too much and are becoming overwhelming. Things we have to do can build up and up and it can feel like they are forming a brick wall that we need to find a way over. Do you feel this way? Is it a struggle to cope? Do you have racing thoughts, or thoughts that are so loud that you can't focus on anything else? Do you have so much to do that you don't know where to start and you just can't relax? Are you in a safe and supportive relationship now, and feel like hurtful or traumatic experiences from your past are getting in the way of day-to-day life or you fear conflict?
If you feel things are difficult and becoming overwhelming I can support you to break it down and to focus on one thing at a time. We can try some exercises together to help you feel more relaxed and slow down, your thoughts. I can support you to build your self-esteem and believe in the decisions you make, leaving you feeling more confident.
If you would like to hear more about how I work and see if we might be a good match you can watch an extended video on my website. We can also have a free 15 minute chat via telephone, or online so that you can get a feel for how we might work together. Reaching out for help can be difficult and I will do my best to make it as easy as possible for you.

I will always work with you to make sure I fully understand how you are feeling and what change you would like to make. Once we are connected we can then build a plan on how we might work to bring about change. Depending on what you prefer, we can simply talk and give you a space to be truly heard and understood and / or we can work though some activities that may be of help to you.
