Counselling helps support people experiencing the many difficulties and challenges that can arise in life, whether it is a recent problem that brings you to therapy or perhaps earlier life events. I specialise in psychodynamic counselling, this approach lies in between counselling and psychotherapy. It provides you with an opportunity to talk about current difficulties at your own pace in a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space. It can help by:
offering support during times of crisis or transition.
deepening awareness of yourself and your relationships.
offering a safe place where you can speak about thoughts or feelings that worry or frighten you.
making sense of recurrent problems by exploring their links with the past.
challenging tendencies to repeat unhelpful patterns of thought and behaviour.
clarifying choices and helping resolve old hurts and conflicts.
The greater insight learnt though this type of therapy helps us to learn from our experiences. It can offer new ways of thinking and relating to others, help you feel differently and can lead to lasting change in the way that you live your present life.
