Are you struggling to cope with your grief and loss of a loved one? Has the death of someone near and dear to you left you feeling like you cannot go on? Has life become so difficult that your daily routines have stopped ? Do you feel like this? Do you awaken in the morning or throughout the night with thoughts racing, images flashing of what was, or what could have been? Does it feel like you have hit a brick wall, or want to curl up and hide away ? If so, I understand how you feel. I too have experienced clear loss. Or maybe it is another type of loss, like the loss of a relationship? A job? Your direction in life, Your identity ?

I work with people who are often the strong one—the person everyone relies on—yet privately feel exhausted, overwhelmed or disconnected from themselves. They may be navigating anxiety, stress, burnout, trauma, low self-worth or a life change that has left them questioning what comes next. Many have spent years putting their own needs last and are now ready for something to change. Through online and face-to-face counselling, I offer a safe space to pause, be heard and make sense of what’s happening. Together, we work towards feeling more grounded, confident and in control of your life.

This is why I offer the first session free-of-charge; a no obligation meeting for you to see if I can help you to begin to identify your needs. My experience includes working with people who struggle with anxiety; low mood; bereavement; and loss and also those who have suffered trauma; those who have suicidal thoughts; and those who have self-harming behaviours. My practice is also psychosexually informed, and I work with people experiencing sexual problems/issues.

From time to time, life (experiences and circumstances) throws us off-course. Many a times, we can resolve the problems independently, however, sometimes we find ourselves struggling with a whole host of emotions that can make us feel trapped, sad, confused, hopeless or helpless thereby rendering us unable and/or incapable of managing out day to day lives.

Life can be challenging; you may be experiencing feelings of being overwhelmed, anxiousness, depression, sadness, hopelessness, or you may have reached a crisis point in your life, but be assured you are not alone, and even the most strong-minded person can feel lost at times. The loss of a loved one, or struggling to make sense of your feelings and emotions can be difficult. Past issues can be destroying but by exploring and addressing these issues it can enable you to move forward. No matter what your presenting issues may be at this time in your life, you have taken the first brave step and you should be proud of yourself.

Rational Emotive Behaviour (REBT) Counsellors
What should I expect from rational emotive behaviour therapy?
The therapist will work with the individual to recognise rigid thought patterns that sabotage goals and set them back. The objective is to identify, challenge and reframe negative thoughts and enable an individual to understand that they possess control over their emotions and their behaviour. This therapy often emphasises the use of reasoning and self-direction.

Is rational emotive behaviour therapy effective?
Rational emotive behaviour therapy is evidence-based and is highly effective. It helps a person reframe self-defeating or catastrophising thoughts thoughts and gives them tools to approach a range of circumstances they may encounter post-therapy as well. REBT can bring a person lifelong change, with higher levels of satisfaction, less stress, as well as positive emotional and behavioural habits.

When do I know if I need treatment with rational emotive behaviour therapy?
If an individual’s mind is filled with rigid, unreasonable thoughts that dwell in negativity, they may feel stuck. A rational emotive behaviour therapist can help a person examine and change their thinking patterns as well as their behaviour. This concise and concrete therapy can provide an individual with the coping skills needed for a healthier and more constructive life.

How long does rational emotive behaviour therapy last?
REBT therapy treatment is short-term and focused in nature. It can last for a set number of sessions, ending within a few weeks or months. Like any type of therapy, however, sessions depend on the individual, as well as the severity of their condition or problem. The individual may wish to ask the therapist about typical progress and how long they expect treatment to take.
