The client is always at the centre of the counselling process and their holistic psychological welfare is of utmost importance. Our counselling space is a safe environment where the beliefs and values of the client are respected and their sense of independence and growth are nurtured.Initially, I see my role as one of facilitating the individual’s exploration of their thoughts, feelings, and beliefs.

The Threads of life Counselling Service
Psychotherapist, MIACP
Verified
Life has a habit of leaning too heavily on us at times and for longer than expected. After trying many ways to break through form the dis-ease, sadness, grief, anger, pain, fear, or trauma, trying so hard to be ok you realise "I need support". That inner knowing is calling out for change or someone to hear what has been happening for you. I would like to offer you time, a safe space to be heard and together we will develop a relationship which allows you to say what you have kept in your heart for so long and open space for your heart to heal. “We will trace the thread of life, find the knot and untangle it” Martha Ostenso

Ask yourself a few questions. Are you experiencing a challenging stage in life, a conflicted state of mind, or difficulty within yourself that keeps on returning to trouble you? Are you finding relationships unfulfilling, stressful, or lonely? Do you worry about the future or are affected by the past? Do you replay everything you could have done differently but are consumed by guilt and regret? Do you spend a lot of time worrying about what other people think and how to make them happy? Maybe you are asking yourself how did my life turn out like this? It's exhausting. Isn't it?
Serenity Psychotherapy
Psychotherapist, MIACP
Verified
Psychotherapy facilitates people who wish to go on a self-exploratory journey to increase self-awareness. It also is a safe, non-judgmental space for people to process grief and loss, boost self-esteem, relationship issues, sexuality/gender concerns and to safely heal from trauma. My philosophy as a therapist is to treat each person with uniqueness and unconditional positive regard. I believe that the client is the expert in their own life and my job is to act as the guide or a facilitator of this journey. To help the client find their real self and to empower individuals to be true to their unique authentic person they are.

Life is a continuous process of experiences & challenges every passing day poses to us. Every experience leaves baggage behind for us to deal with. Sometimes the baggage gets too heavier and burdensome for us to carry. Our health, functioning, self-care, and relationships, all get affected because of this baggage. Psychotherapy is a way of getting liberated of the baggage from the past and for getting prepared for the upcoming life challenges.

Elva McDonagh
Psychotherapist, MA, MIACP
Verified
Are you a professional woman in her 30s? Are you very busy and would like to do therapy in your time and in the comfort of your own home or office. Typically women come to me because they are feeling exhausted or overwhelmed. They are working very hard, life is super busy and they are unsure of what they want from life. They know there is more to life but can't figure it out, they often feel stuck. They procrastinate and constantly worry finding it hard to make a decision. Life has not turned out how they may have imagined and managing how they are feeling can be difficult.

I have worked as a therapist for the past 22 years in private practice. It is my great privilege to be with people at perhaps the most difficult times in their lives what ever the circumstances. It is my experience that all of us long for connection to ourselves and others - essentially to be met as a person - regardless of presenting issue.
