Counselling in PR7

One thing I always say to my clients is that my ultimate goal is to 'make you your own therapist so you don't need me anymore'. I believe my role is to help you: Understand the problem and what is keeping it going. Identify goals for yourself both short term and long term to help give you focus. Learn strategies and techniques that can help you cope better, overcome and make positive changes. Be able to maintain your progress after therapy and reduce the chances or impacts of setbacks in the future. Become more resilient, understanding of good mental heath awareness which could have a positive impact on your relationships.

I specialise in bereavement, grief, loss and life losses. I can offer you a safe space to talk about your loss and the feelings you are experiencing. Grief can feel like a very lonely place, and it is often difficult to talk to family and friends, but the need to talk over and make sense of your emotions is very important in the grieving process. I can work with you to explain how the process of grief works and how you will be affected. I cannot solve your problems for you as you will understand, but I can offer you the time to talk about how your bereavement is affecting you and we can find some coping strategies to help you.

Are you trying to cope with stress, anxiety, or low mood? Are the events of your past negatively affecting your present life?

I work in a person-centred, solution-focused way that is adapted to your presenting difficulties.

Welcome to Wellbeing in Mind Psychological Therapies. Are you looking to manage problematic symptoms of low mood and anxiety? Have you experienced traumatic events that are impacting your functioning? Do you have relationship difficulties that have been brought about by significant changes in your life? If any of this sounds familiar, the combination of therapies I offer could make a real difference to your wellbeing.

We all have difficulties in life at different points, and most of the time we are able to just get on with it. But sometimes, we just need to pause and work with what we are experiencing. I understand that taking this step can be difficult but Counselling/Psychotherapy can help with this, and the feelings, thoughts, anxieties and lack of meaning that may have become your normal. Talking to someone can bring a positive change and help you regain your sense of self. I have experience of working with clients that bring a range of issues to the room, helping them work towards their goals and happiness.

Hello, welcome to Therapy NorthWest. We support the wellbeing of adults & young people in clinics in Chorley & surrounding areas. We believe that life can be challenging with a number of different pressures & demands. We do not believe that these things make us ‘abnormal’ or ‘ill’, rather that there are times when we require support to work through difficulties, what has happened and how we have responded. Zandra has many years experience working with individuals, couples, families and systems to help foster greater well-being.

Online and face to face CBT therapy appointments available for both adults and children. I have worked many years previously in NHS services including adult psychological therapies and children mental health services (CAMHS). My specialities include domestic abuse & emotional abuse & trauma. I also work with children and young people (11+) in helping them to overcome difficulties including anxiety, depression and trauma.

Often clients contact me when other therapy has not helped them in the way they had hoped. This is often due to the complexity of difficulties being layered perhaps in a history of trauma. Distress in the body and mind can be triggered by what appears to be something superficial. This can open up the past or come at a time when our emotional resilience is low so this event has a greater impact than it may have done. We can find ourselves not being able to function in our normal way. Many clients often identify as 'good copers' and those who 'just get on with it'. Perhaps we can't now - this is frightening and can derail us.

I am a qualified therapeutic Integrative Counsellor supporting children, adolescents & adults, either face to face, by telephone, online or home visits. Are you or your child finding it difficult to cope or manage with everyday situations and find life a struggle. Many of us can feel overwhelmed and unsure of how to deal with these thoughts, feelings and our behaviour. You may be feeling anxious or low about life in general. There may be physical health symptoms that are causing you concern. I would like to help and support you through this difficult time.
