Counselling in PR3

Whatever your personal reasons for seeking therapy, I can offer a safe and confidential space for you to explore your situation and move towards your goals. Counselling and psychotherapy have been proven to help with a wide range of issues, whether these are related to current distressing feelings or something traumatic from the past. Talking to someone who won't judge you or tell you what you should do can help you find your own way forward. As a counsellor, I accompany you on your journey. Trained in integrative psychotherapy, I can also suggest specific approaches to our work together that are based on your personal needs.

Are you struggling to overcome the impact of traumatic or challenging life events and the often painful, emotional aftermath? Perhaps your experiencing feelings and can't even put your finger on why you feel the way you do. Do you want to understand why you're feeling isloated and alone, have lost motivation or started avoiding people? Perhaps you worry all time or are troubled by nightmares or difficult and confusing memories. I've helped clients overcome the above issues and have had specialist training in supporting survivors of rape and childhood sexual abuse. I'll be alongside you as you explore the issues you're facing.

What would it be like to feel happier and more in control of your life and emotions? Anxiety, stress, depression, low self-esteem and confidence, loss of motivation, and changes such as relationship breakdowns, unemployment or bereavement can all be debilitating, and cause you upset and distress. It can be really hard to imagine how things could ever be better. However, life doesn't have to be this way. With me, you will be able to talk about exactly what is going on for you and how this feels, and we will work together to help you find a way forward, and to help you find ways of making your life better so that you feel happier.

Hi, my name is Sal. I work with people with a wide range of issues. Many people come to therapy because they are having a difficult time and want someone to listen to them, others want help in finding reasons why they are feeling this way. Sometimes people have more complex issues and need someone skilled and experienced to help them manage and work through them.

Sometimes things can become a little too much, maybe a little overwhelming and we need to talk and have someone to listen to us. A safe space just to be heard and be ourselves. As a person-centred, experiential therapist I can offer you that time and space, affordability and easily accessible counselling in the heart of Preston at a time to suit you. As a member of the BACP and adhering to their ethical guidelines, there is nothing too big or too small to bring to counselling. You are not alone and I'm here for you. I am also an accredited Rewind Therapist providing closure without disclosure for trauma, PTSD and phobias.

The relationship that I have with my clients is being that person who is down-to-earth and approachable and with whom they can find a connection. They can talk to me openly, feeling safe to invest in the counselling process and feel respected in a completely non-judgmental environment. My clients choose to work with me because I'm "authenticated and real".

People are often unsure if counselling is for them. My opinion is if something is causing you worry, anxiety or you are not sure what to do, or have depressing, counselling can help. By talking through your issues you gain new perspectives. Some people find coming for their first counselling session really difficult, because they don't know what to expect. The first session is about you meeting the counsellor and discussing what is troubling you. First sessions are longer than normal at Colette Counselling, this give us plenty of time to talk about the therapy process and your issues and how therapy can be of help to you.

Relationships are at the core of what it means to be human. If your relationship with your partner or your family is not working , then this can affect so many parts of your life. Perhaps you feel that you have never been happy in the relationship that you are in? Perhaps you or your partner have had an affair or have issues with jealousy? Maybe you are considering splitting up or leaving? Being part of an extended family can present its own problems. Being a Step Parent or Step Child can be very problematic. Parenting issues can cause major rifts in families and sometimes an experienced third party can offer a solution.

A good healthy relationship can enrich our lives and and provide a deep sense of fulfilment, both emotionally and physically. When relationships are not working we often feel frustrated, and confused with measurable consequences on our lives and those around us.There are many reasons why relationships become difficult or unmanageable These may be because of poor communication, arguments that are repeated or never resolved, trust issues, an affair or life stage transitions such as having children, divorce, blended families, bereavement or retirement.

Whatever difficulties you may be facing, I am here to help. I have many years experience counselling adults, children and teenagers with a wide range of emotional, behavioural and mental heath issues. I believe the therapeutic relationship is fundamental to the outcome of therapy, and provide warmth, understanding and a safe space to help you explore your thoughts and feelings with the aim of increasing your self-awareness and ability to manage your emotions and problems. I offer a free initial consulation to discuss the issues that have brought you to seek therapy and to explore how I may be able to help you.

I am an experienced and registered Counselling Psychologist in private practice offering a range of psychological therapies including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and EMDR. I offer face-to-face appointments in Lancaster and work remotely with clients from everywhere else in the UK.
