Counselling in SO51

Are you struggling with where you are in your life right now? You work hard, but never think you've achieved enough and get stuck in negative thought loops and anxiety. Perhaps you're struggling with overwhelm, numbness, and bodily symptoms, even panic or dissociation, and nothing seems safe. Maybe you struggle to express yourself in relationships and end up repeating the same patterns again and again. Or it may be you've lost motivation and feel low all the time. If you can relate, then talking to a professional can help. I offer a safe and nonjudgmental space for you to address your problems, and I'd love to hear from you.

At times we may feel overwhelmed and unable to cope with the demands of life. Relationships with family, friends or work colleagues may be strained leaving us feeling unhappy, anxious or depressed. When it feels as though life is getting on top of us, having a safe place to talk with a qualified counsellor can help move our lives forward. Those first steps, deciding to seek support, finding a counsellor and the initial contact can be daunting. Finding a counsellor who is a good fit for you is crucial, so I offer a free 30 minute assessment where you can gain a sense of how our sessions might feel and how we might work together.

Do you struggle with anxiety, poor self-esteem, relationship difficulties, or other emotional issues? Do you sometimes find it difficult to articulate what the problem is or feel that words are just not enough to express it? It might be that Dramatherapy is right for you. Dramatherapy is a form of psychological therapy/psychotherapy in which all of the performing arts are utilised within the therapeutic relationship (BADth). It is particularly helpful when you struggle to articulate what the problem is or when words are just not enough to express it. Clients do not need to have previous experience or skills in acting, theatre or drama, it is not about performing well or being good at acting, rather it is about making use of dramatic tools to explore, address and make sense of troubling issues. I am Marta Paglioni, a Dramatherapist clinical practitioner registered with HCPC and full member of BADth (British Association of Dramatherapists). - Cover image from: <a href="http://www.freepik.com">Designed by Freepik</a>)-

When life becomes difficult and those pieces are just not fitting, counselling gives you the opportunity to focus on yourself, make you the priority in an otherwise busy life. I have been through such times and it encouraged me to train as a counsellor to help clients with general mental health issues and other life difficulties, such as grief, addiction, sexuality, domestic abuse and anger issues.

Although I work with a variety of issues, my passion is to support those who have suffered from a traumatic experience(s) that influences their quality of life.
