You don't have to work things out alone,
whatever you bring, everything is welcome.
You are welcome.
-
Do you feel empty, or that your emotions are overwhelming you?
-
Have you lost the feeling that you know who you really are?
-
Do you feel properly loved? Is it difficult to be kind to yourself?
-
Perhaps you have the feeling of not being 'enough' or are you struggling to find enjoyment in life?
-
Do you hate to let anyone down or say 'yes' even when you are already completely overwhelmed?
-
Can you say how you really feel in your relationships or do you go along with what others want and then feel resentful?
Have you ever wondered why you feel this way and wish it was different?
If you are thinking "that's just like me" then I can help you.
If you are feeling anxious, emotionally empty or if you have relationship issues with parents or partners and you want to feel supported and properly heard; I can help.
When life feels a bit more difficult than usual and it's hard to find anyone to talk to who will listen without giving you unwanted advice or judgement, I am here for you.
Emotional difficulties can be caused by situations or changes in our life. We can lose sight of ourselves and life can feel more difficult than usual, we can feel low or agitated and unable to feel settled.
Often these feelings are related to relationship problems, or work stress, job loss or bereavement. All of these things take their toll on how we feel and cope with our lives, yet how we deal with challenges in life can also be related to our childhood experiences.
We can get stuck in emotional patterns of behaviour without realising it. Looking back at significant relationships in our lives can often illuminate why we feel or behave as we do in the here and now. However it can be difficult to unravel it all without any help.
I offer one to one counselling in a private, confidential and safe space to help you explore your feelings, your thoughts and your experiences. I can help you to feel more able to cope and, with this support, you will find the strength and courage to move forward to a better place. We can consider and deal with any dilemmas and decisions you face as well as help you to notice and understand any patterns that keep occuring in your life, this can lead to you being able to decide if you'd like to change things for the better and how to go about it. With counselling to support you through difficult times, you can regain your confidence, you can make any changes or progress that you want to and you will begin to see new perspectives for your future.
