Counselling in SS1

As an experienced BACP registered counsellor, with diverse & varied counselling experience, I can offer you a professional, safe, cared-for & confidential environment which will support you in exploring the aspects of your life that are troubling you. People enter therapy for many reasons. Whatever your circumstances or the obstacles you face, having a confidential space where you are not judged, where it is safe for you to be totally 'you', will be key to assisting you in your journey to a life that feels happier & more content. I can provide this for you.

Has life become a struggle? First comes the initial drink, then you're not able to take control and say enough is enough. After a long week at work, you feel stressed and constantly crave a drink BUT after, you just sit there and ask yourself 'why do I do this' - you just don't know the answer? For years you thought your lifestyle was sustainable but now you realise that it is having an impact on the people around you and you're tired of going round in maddening circles. Ultimately you fear destroying your relationships and losing the love from your, partner, kids, family and friends.

Hello - my name is Sinead and I am a qualified counsellor. There are many reasons that you might feel drawn to try counselling. It can be because something specific has happened in your life, such as the death of a loved one or another major life event. Maybe you are struggling to see a way forward. Perhaps you feel ‘stuck’ or are unable to find meaning in your life. Sometimes talking to a friend about it just isn’t enough or isn’t even an option. In a counselling relationship, you won’t be judged; I won’t tell you what I would do and I won’t tell anybody else what you have told me.

I’m glad you have found your way here, it’s your first step towards feeling better. You may be feeling low or lost and the future feels difficult to see or there are changes you want to make but you don't know where to start. Talking to a therapist can help you to see things more clearly. Perhaps you are struggling with a difficult life event. I promise to listen carefully, not to judge you, to offer my support and empathy as you work out the path you want to take or deal with the grief you are feeling. I will be by your side as you tell your story and work on the next chapter.

I have extensive experience of working with primary & secondary school aged children using creative techniques to explore difficulties. Whether it's imaginative play, storytelling or image making all are intended to help clients not only engage in self-exploration, but also create purposeful meaning-making through visually expressing experiences, perceptions, feelings and thoughts. Creative Therapy is for Adults & Teens too offering an opportunity to go beyond "thinking" about how we feel to create connection to our embodied "felt" sense. We will work together to help enhancing self awareness alongside self empowerment & resilience.

Over the years most of the client issues I have encountered encompass loss and control in some way, shape or form. Many clients feel out of control, and helpless or in complete despair, and would like to be able to clear a pathway for themselves to work out a more manageable way of living with less anxiety. Many clients just want to be listened to, and for some that is a rare luxury as friends and family often have their own agenda. Regular reviews and goal setting to reflect where a client is, in relation to their therapy journey are part of the therapeutic process and help to build trust and structure.

Welcome to my profile. First the informative part. I’m a fully qualified person centred therapist, who is registered with the BACP to maintain high working standards. I truly believe that with the right therapeutic relationship, and a want to change – anything is possible! I will be led by you, in the direction that you would like to go and I have the belief that you will instinctively know where that is. Taking the first step is often the hardest, please feel free to email or call me to ask any questions that you may have.

www.woodwillowcounselling.com Firstly, well done to you for reaching out. It takes strength to reach out and search for help. For some people therapy might seem daunting or even a last resort and for others more comfortable with therapy they may know what to expect. As a trained counsellor I can help you to explore what's going on for you and listen in an empathetic way, without judgement.

Do you sometimes feel overwhelmed by the stresses in life? Feel unable to make decisions? Do you condemn yourself for making the 'wrong' decision? We can be good at condemning ourselves and be our worst critic. Discovering what patterns are happening for us over and over again, and preparing yourself for these, knowing what you can and can't do, can feel empowering. Being able to express yourself knowing that you can be heard without fear, embarrassment or shame but with acceptance of you as a person can be life changing. I can help you look at making changes and find bespoke ways to support and establish a way forward for you.
