Still scrolling? If you're exhausted from holding everything together while struggling on the inside, this may be the sign you've been looking for. If you've clicked on my profile, there may be a reason for that. You may be used to holding everything together on the outside while struggling on the inside. Perhaps you're feeling anxious, overwhelmed, emotionally numb, stuck in a relationship that isn't serving you, or relying on alcohol or substances to cope. You may feel lost, disconnected from yourself, or unsure how things got to this point. Whatever has brought you here, you don't have to face it alone.
I'm Lucy, an Integrative Counsellor specialising in addiction, domestic abuse and trauma. I also work with a range of concerns including anxiety, low mood, self-esteem, ADHD and emotional overwhelm. My aim is simple: to meet you where you are. I want you to feel heard, seen and understood, without judgement and without pressure to be anything other then you.
Together, we can give you space to explore what is important for you. I offer a free 30-minute call so you can ask questions and see whether working together feels right for you. Sessions are online across the UK (Teams, WhatsApp or telephone), or in person in Upper Basildon near Pangbourne.
Call or Lucy Smith now for a free 15 minute consultation - 0118 230 2607
