Men's Issues Counselling in W14
Whenever you're not willing to feel an emotion, your choices and behaviours stem from your avoidance of that emotion. Your resistance runs your life & is directly contrary to your overall best interest. Similarly, traumas are incidents unable to be completed. The energies of these traumas are stored in our body until they can be released. I assist you to unlock these traumas by reactivating the emotional responses to these trapped emotions, which unlocks the synapses in the brain, allowing new positive emotional learning to replace the old trauma. Your energy field then becomes less dense, & a new sense of freedom takes hold.

Feeling alone in your relationship? Can't figure out why your relationships aren't working out and you end up alone? You are not alone. If your relationships aren't working, are unhappy, are unsatisfying your quality of life isn't all it could be. It's sad. It's exhausting. It feels hopeless sometimes. You are already taking the first step looking for someone to help you. I hear from so many couples and individuals who felt ashamed or frustrated they couldn't figure it out for themselves. That it means their marriage must be over or somethings wrong with them if they need to see a relationship therapist. You are not alone.

Your heart has always felt a little broken, even before you were old enough to find love. You searched endlessly for someone that got it, in books, in the music you listened to late and night whilst crying in your room. ‘I want to be someone else or I’ll explode’. Except you didn’t explode and your life dragged on. It’s hard to explain why your soul feels empty. Everyone told you it would pass but it never fully did. You just got better at hiding it. The German army shirt became an All Saints jumper, the vodka and coke became a bottle of Whispering Angel. All good, nothing to see here. You became very good at pretending.

Problems with a particular relationship is often what brings individuals and couples to relationship counselling and psychotherapy. As an experienced counsellor and psychotherapist I offer a non judgmental space where we can think together about the interaction and the conflicts of this relationship, seek to understand the recurrent patterns of difficulties you are facing and resolve the underlying issues. Counselling and psychotherapy may involve exploring the past to the extent that it influences the present.

People may see you and think you are so positive and cheerful, but inside you are relentlessly beating yourself up and frustrated that life is not going your way.

Men's Issues Counsellors
Is therapy for men different than it is for women?
Therapeutic treatments and types are the same for men as they are for women, with the same protocols followed and the same strategies employed. Discussing one’s feelings and emotions is an integral part of most therapies, and some men find doing so more challenging. Therapists can help clients through the process; some specialize in treating men for this reason.
How do you encourage a man to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either himself or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can men prepare for therapy?
Men can prepare for therapy by approaching the process with an open mind, being willing to talk about their challenges, and giving treatment the time to work. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. It can be useful for men who struggle to recall their emotional states to write down notes between sessions about their response to a given event or how they were feeling at a particular time.
What should men know about the process of therapy?
One of the most common reasons men don’t seek therapy is the notion that there’s something wrong with them if they do. Men should know that just because they’re seeking therapy doesn’t mean they’re mentally ill or damaged in some way. In the same way people work on their bodies through exercise or a craft through practice, therapy can be a way to improve the mental and emotional skills needed to be productive and effective partners, employees, and people in all realms of life.
