Introduction
We can all experience times in our lives when things feel really tough. For a whole host of reasons we can feel frustrated, lost or simply overwhelmed. At times like this we need to talk to someone, but even this can be a problem. Even if there is someone who we are comfortable in opening up to, they may be too close, not close enough or just unable to understand how to offer the right kind of support.
Talking things through with a professionally qualified therapist may help you see things more clearly and, more importantly, enable you to work out a manageable way forward.
You may feel that seeking help feels embarrassing. Not many people do feel very comfortable about admitting that they need support.
However, therapists are specially trained to unlock the thought processes that can often result in us feeling "stuck". You may have concerns about the cost of therapy.
If we imagine our personal health and well being as not just having physical needs, but also psychological requirements, this offers a different perspective. Many of us will pay to go for a swim, invest in gym membership, or perhaps try some "retail therapy" to cheer ourselves up, but far fewer of us will prioritise our minds and our emotions as occasionally needing professional support and guidance - and actually, the principle is the same.
I hope that the information provided on my website will encourage you to take the first step towards talking over a personal problem that may be preventing you from living a better life.
You can be assured of a friendly, genuine, non-judgmental response - with no pressure whatsoever to begin therapy unless you feel comfortable and that it is right for you.
I look forward to hearing from you.
