HUMANISTIC GESTALT COUNSELLOR
Together not alone
Counselling is where you can tell your story in the presence of someone who is trained in the Art of Listening. It is grounded in confidentiality, respect, equality and trust.
I have a deep understanding of the healing power of you telling your story, of being heard and seen, of knowing that what you say matters. In these unsettling times I consider it to be even more important to understand our anxieties and have opportunities to express them.
I offer short and long term counselling for adults in a safe and reflective space, where you don’t have to struggle with your difficulties on your own. Together we can explore what is going on for you. I can help you gain awareness, discover choices, heal and learn how to empower yourself. I facilitate this process as I listen and observe empathically, describe and reflect with care.
I offer support through face to face and online counselling.
I use methods from different therapeutic disciplines to suit your specific needs. I especially use methods which encourage whole brain thinking and experiencing with the body, rather than over-relying on logic.
There is no charge for an initial phone conversation. Subsequent sessions are charged at a rate of £55 per 50 minute session.
I can help you with:
- Anxiety: My heart is racing. My breath is shallow.
- Stress: I feel overloaded.
- Depression: I have no energy. I lost motivation. The black dog that sits on me.
- Trauma: I do not feel safe anymore.
- Loss and Grief: Someone or something I had is gone. It has left an emptiness that hurts.
- Stuck-ness: I am trying hard to find a solution, but I keep going around in circles.
- Confusion: My head is in a muddle. I need time and space to think.
- Overwhelm: I cannot cope.
- Self-esteem: I am not good enough
- Shame: I am unlovable. I am a mistake.
- Loneliness: I feel separate. I do not fit in. There is no one I can talk to. No one understands me.
