Areas I work with
How I can help?
People come to counselling for many reasons. Below are some of the areas I often work with, however, this isn’t a checklist, and you don’t need to have everything worked out before you get in touch.
We can work together to make sense of anxiety and work together on strategies to manage your anxiety.
Pressure, difficult dynamics or burnout at work can spill into the rest of life. We can work through what’s happening and find strategies to help.
When everything feels heavy or flat, having a space to talk, without having to put on a brave face, can be a real relief and a starting point a brighter future.
Anger is a normal feeling, but it can become hard to manage. We can explore what sits underneath the anger and find ways to respond rather than react.
Feeling unheard or struggling to say what you mean. We can work together on expressing yourself more clearly and confidently.
If you’re often hard on yourself, we can gently look at the beliefs behind this and build a kinder, steadier sense of self.
Loss can be disorienting and lonely. I offer a gentle, unhurried space to grieve in your own way and at your own pace.
Feeling disconnected, is more common than many realise. Together we can explore what’s getting in the way of connection.
Big changes and difficult choices can leave us feeling stuck. We can weigh things up calmly and find some clarity about future changes and decisions.
If a relationship has left you confused, hurt or unsure of yourself, this is a safe place to make sense of it, at your own pace.
Unwanted or distressing thoughts can be frightening and exhausting. We can understand them together and ease the hold they have on you.
Tension and recurring conflict at home can be painful. We can look at the patterns involved and explore healthier ways of relating.
Parenting brings real pressures. This is a space to talk things through, without judgement, and find what works for your family.
Relationships effect every part of life. I offer support through both the practical and the emotional sides of relationships
Difficulties at home, whether ongoing tension or a particular rupture, can be explored carefully and confidentially here.
This stage of life can bring emotional as well as physical change. Having a space to talk it through can make a genuine difference.
