The focus of counselling is not always finding solutions, but to gain a deeper understanding of your problem and how you are experiencing it, helping you to make sense of it all. Sometimes talking to people can be full of well-intentioned advice, but can lead you to feel misunderstood, judged and confused. You may not have anyone that you feel comfortable to talk to about your problems, leaving you feeling overwhelmed, isolated and stuck. Our pasts cannot be changed, but with the right support and understanding you can learn to make sense of it, how it has impacted you, and feel less stuck moving forward with your life.
I am an integrative relational therapist, believing our well-being is influenced by the quality of connections with others. My approach is to create a trusting relationship with you, which can help you be able to delve a bit deeper into your suffering so that we can explore your experience of the things you are finding difficult and help you to move forward.
Years ago, having my own therapy felt like wearing a new pair of glasses, seeing things I couldn’t see before, opened up to choices I was unaware I had (like X-Ray vision). I felt such a strong sense of empowerment to take control of my life and decided I wanted to do the same for others. To find out more, please get in touch to book a free 15 minute call.
