| Français I work in a way that is compassionate, direct, authentic and deeply neuro-atypical-affirming. I understand what it is like to feel emotionally overwhelmed by everyday life,
overthink conversations for hours afterwards, struggle with rejection sensitivity, experience burnout, mask constantly around other people, feel different or misunderstood, live with chronic anxiety or emotional exhaustion, crave connection while simultaneously finding relationships difficult, feel stuck between perfectionism and overwhelm, and carry shame for “not functioning” the way you think you should.
My approach to counselling is “eclectic”, which means that I use a variety of techniques to help you make sense of your individual circumstances, and help you discover how you can use your own personal, social and material resources to cope in the future. I specialise in children (having worked in schools and colleges for 3 decades).
I am here to support you through your difficult times. Working together, we will look at the patterns of behaviour, thoughts and feelings which are causing your problems. We may look at your family relationships and history, at who influenced you the most in your childhood to help you understand how you function as a person and to develop your self-awareness
