Counselling in SN4

If now is the right time to talk about something that is troubling you, please contact me. It may be that you are struggling with feelings of anxiety and low mood. Perhaps you have experienced loss or trauma and need to talk about this or maybe you just need to make some changes in your life. I understand that this step is not always an easy one, but I will listen without judgement and offer a safe, supportive environment to enable you to talk freely. Talking together can help to clarify things and find a way through. I welcome clients from all backgrounds and life stages, from young adulthood through to later life.

My background is in education, providing support for students from Primary, Secondary, Sixth Form/College, and University. This support includes, but is not limited to, the creation of bespoke timetables (PBS - Positive Behavioural Support) for students that struggle to access normal mainstream school routines, and helping them better understand their diagnosis and its impact on a daily basis. While working with a diverse range of people, I have received specialist training for working with students and adults with Autism, ADHD, Asperger's and challenging behaviour. I have also previously worked in a Specialist Autistic (SRP) unit.

Online/phone sessions available. Hello and warm welcome. Do you want to UNDERSTAND YOURSELF better and BE UNDERSTOOD? When talking about their difficulties, in a safe and caring space, many people find a WAY FORWARD through their struggles. You deserve to live a life full of passion and joy! Do not let your anxiety, depression, self-limiting beliefs, or your damaging thoughts limit your potential, impede your creativity and freedom of expression, or stop you from becoming what you are meant to be in the world!

My name is Sandra and I have worked as an Integrative Counsellor since 2013. For a lot of that time my work has been focused on working with the bereaved, both adults and children, helping them to understand their grief and finding ways to live with their loss. Through this work I have gained experience working with clients affected by a variety of tragedies, including suicide and the death of a child. I have also worked as a volunteer addiction counsellor, and as a facilitator for carers groups.

Hello, my name is Tanya. As a counsellor- psychotherapist for over 25 years and a supervisor for 15, I continue to see how helpful counselling can be. I have immediate availability on Mondays and Tuesdays. Are you finding life tough, trying to deal with stress, anxiety, loss, feeling low or depressed or the impact of abuse and trauma? I am sorry you are having to struggle - life can get us down and sometimes the most courageous thing we can do is to seek some support. In our first session you can tell me what you are dealing with and see if it feels ok to work with me.

Maybe now is the right time to talk? Please contact me. You may be experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, bereavement, insomnia, self-blame, shame, social anxiety, panic or low self-esteem. You may have relationship, family or estrangement issues, or be struggling with dating or being single. Changes may be affecting you, such as coming out as LGBTQ+, adjusting to mid-life, empty nest, menopause, retirement, leaving a job or the services, career change, health challenges or isolation. You may be adjusting to post-pandemic life and finding it hard to reintegrate activities such as office working or going to the gym.

Hello, and thank you for visiting. Life can be really challenging sometimes. Taking care of your mental health is just as important as taking care of your physical health. Making the first step towards seeking help can be daunting, so I appreciate you being here. You might be struggling with something currently or have difficulties from the past you'd like to work through. There might be something coming in the future that is worrying you. Whatever you bring to counselling, you will find a safe, non-judgmental space to explore how you are feeling.

I am a Havening Technique practitioner and qualified counsellor (www.havening.org), a quick and highly effective neuroscience technique. The Havening Techniques is a method, proven through science, which is designed to change the brain to de-traumatize the memory and remove its negative effects from both our psyche and body. I have a long history of working with children/families/parents and carers. I believe that our relationship is key and my focus is based around understanding your needs and that I am led by your pace fuelled with passion, caring and empathy.

A good Counselling relationship is built on the ability to grow an authentic and confidential space between client and therapist. It is a space where you can bring your difficulties, worries, anxieties, frustrations, feeling sad, family and relationship issues in this space you will experience a non-judgemental and empathic space to reflect on issues that have brought you to counselling. Counselling provides the client with this unique space that is often hard to find in life’s day to day relationships. However, it is not about giving advice or opinions it is about helping the client to find their own solutions.

I help Individuals and Couples with many different concerns. They often want to be able to feel and cope better, to improve their relationships, their wellbeing and their lives. Perhaps you are trying to cope with a bereavement or have suffered another loss such as the breakdown of a relationship. You may feel that with support, you are ready to tackle some trauma you have suffered or you may need help with your current situation. Or maybe you just feel a little lost and need some help to get yourself back on track or you don't really know where to start and feel anxious about talking to someone about your problems. I can help.

Life can often be seen that we put the needs of others' before our own, therefore neglecting ourselves and experiencing difficult environments and emotions. I offer time for 'you' to explore your own needs and provide this by short or long term therapy, based on your emotional needs. As an integrative therapist, I invite clients to experience different ways of exploring personal experiences and create positive change to the challenges that are faced. The therapy I offer is a process that helps you restore your natural sense of harmony and balance.

I am an experienced counsellor working with adults and young people aged 16 upwards. I support clients who present with a variety of issues and concerns. Some of these include anxiety and depression, self-esteem, work stress, bereavement and problems with family relationships or difficult life events. I work with each individual client in the best way for them, using a variety of counselling techniques to support them in their journey, well as looking at ways forward and any goals they may want to achieve.

Feeling challenged by life? Relationships, families, work, school or health affect us; knock our self-esteem, leaving us feeling stressed, anxious or low. It may be a past event or something more recent that is affecting you. Maybe you feel as though no-one is listening. Often it helps to talk things through with someone outside the situation. Counselling is an opportunity to get to know yourself better, and with gentle, non-judgemental curiosity, think about any changes you might like to make and find ways to navigate through the challenges you face. If you feel I can help you through this process, please contact me.
