What issues can therapy help with?
Therapy can be of help for people who are experiencing difficulties that affect them in day to day life. Maybe past experiences are continuing to affect you now, or have suddenly started to make it difficult to manage daily life. Maybe you feel disconnected, lost, or held back. Maybe you are finding relationships difficult, experienced loss, or are experiencing a life transition like retirement or menopause.

Explore Issues in Confidence
Therapy takes place in a private space, where you can meet with someone who will listen with empathy and without judgement. In the therapy space, thoughts and feelings can be expressed freely and in confidence. Talking about our issues can be challenging at times. Art therapy and EMDR offer creative and embodied ways to explore issues to help people feel less stuck.
A Problem Shared
Therapy can help you gain greater insight into the difficulties you are facing; help you understand why you think, behave and react to them the way you do; and see how you can start to make choices that aling with how you wish to be moving forward.
Therapy is a dedicated and protected time in your schedule to think about your emotional needs. It is a confidential place to work through whatever you may wish you explore.
Making New Choices
Many people face difficulties in their everyday lives that can be hard to manage. Therapy can help build a set of tools we can use to help gain a better understanding of what’s causing these problems and empower people to move towards managing or resolving their difficulties. Therapy begins by building coping strategies to empower people to make the choices they would like.
Get in touch
Please do contact me if you have any queries, or, to arrange a free 20-minute phone/zoom consultation.
