Counselling
I believe that everyone should seek in-person or online counselling at some point in their lives. We all go to the dentist or car mechanic every year, but when do we give ourselves the gift of an emotional check in?
My sessions are forward thinking to help you achieve your personal and professional goals.
H olistic Counselling to help quiet your mind, trust yourself, recognise your goals and strengths, communicate effectively with partners, children, parents and friends, break out of old patterns or negative thought behaviours, let go of old stories, understand and better cope with mental health, make decisions that are right for you, gain clarity, focus, calm and more.
My promise to you is that you will learn practical and effective skills, tools and techniques to bring in to your daily life immediately.
Holistic Counselling includes the ‘all of you’, recognising that:
- We are multi-faceted human beings and our emotional, mental, spiritual and physical health need to be in-line for us to function at our best.
- Our upbringing; Our family, culture, society, religion and nationality can play a part in how we think, act, react and behave.
Holistic Counselling also means that I, as the therapist, can switch between therapeutic modalities dependant on your needs. A session with me may include talk therapy and active listening, writing therapy exercises, cognitive behaviour therapy, narrative therapy, breathwork, and often homework including journalling and variations of mindfulness meditation.
Writing Therapy is a powerful tool for identifying and processing stagnant thoughts and emotions in a way that talking alone often cannot. Writing therapy can help with getting in touch with gut feelings and making good decisions, facilitate letting go of old patterns and stories and help you reach deeper levels of understanding yourself.
Even for those “I don’t journal” or “I don’t like writing” clients, I promise you that in time you will discover its power, freedom and joy.
