Life can be messy and rarely ever turns out just the way we hoped or planned.
Do you feel ‘stuck’ in life? In a relationship or in your work life. Maybe you have been signed off from work, college or university with anxiety or stress. Perhaps feeling low and depressed is preventing you from enjoying the ‘sunshine‘ moments of your life.
I can work with you to help you navigate the difficulties that are causing emotional and mental suffering and support you as you discover a more fulfilled and contented life.
You may have experienced divorce, separation, job loss, bereavement, family upsets, relationship issues or friendship difficulties. Adverse childhood experiences, trauma, abuse, and anxiety can cause pain, suffering, and confusion that can leave us in deep pain and negatively affect our mental well-being.
Counselling provides the opportunity to gain perspective and helps you consider how you would like to move forward in life. It can also help you understand yourself and others better, leading to a clearer understanding of your challenges. At PLACE2TALK, I will work to support you as you develop the strategies and skills to alleviate the impact of the difficulties affecting your day-to-day life, leading to positive changes for you, your family, your work life, and your relationships.
Shame is a common theme, often stemming from childhood. It is associated with many negative emotions, such as feelings of anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem and can lead to substance use, self-harm and suicidal behaviours. More often than not, shame leads to disconnection, from yourself and your emotions and also from others, leading to isolation. Living with shame can be lonely and demoralising however, healing the wounds of shame is possible.
My counselling room is located in Bournemouth, BH10 and is easily accessible from Bournemouth, Poole, Christchurch and surrounding areas.
