You’re looking for the right therapeutic support, or…
…just curious about mindfulness training.
Remember who you are.
Not the shape others have put on you, not the story they handed you,
not the lies or needs that were pressed into your psyche.
Not even your own imagined ideas of what you should be.
But the real you, the wild innate you
that is breathing under all those
should be’s, all those untruths.
Remember the feel of it, the shape of it.
Let it inhabit you, like golden weeds rewilding the concrete.
Remember by Brigit Anna McNeill
New to seeing a counsellor?
Here are some tips from me…
Mindfulness practice is most effective in right-brain dominant people.
That is, creative, imaginative people. If this is you, you’re in the right place.
Support for:
-
Complex or long-term psychological and emotional pain can be debilitating. Every trauma is unique. The support of a compassionate counsellor might be just another tool in your own personal toolkit for recovery.
-
Sometimes depression is just a mood. Sometimes it’s ongoing. ACT can help you make room for the pain of loss & despair, & restore a rich, fulfilled life over time. “Grief is love with nowhere to go.”
-
When the Perfect Storm hits, even the most resilient person can cave in under pressure. When crisis or overwhelming circumstances make you feel as if you are about to snap, counselling can help you find a healthy path.
-
Workplaces, social groups and even families can hide toxic manipulators in plain sight. Lived experience professional support can help with Narcissistic Abuse Syndrome and other toxic relationship issues.
-
Emotional rollercoaster is how most people describe divorce. Maybe your friends don’t get it, your family don’t get it. Why can’t you just ‘get over it’? Relationship trauma counselling can help.
-
We live in a hectic world, juggling multiple responsibilities. Keeping on top of the stress of life can sometimes lead to uncomfortable physical, mental or emotional stress that is difficult to manage. Mindfulness can help you find your zen again.
-
Are you a private kind of person who doesn’t enjoy groups all that much? Or you like to investigate life’s big existential questions? These approaches help you be the best therapist for yourself.
-
Can’t juggle everything? You are not alone! Counselling with Solution Focussed Brief Therapy, Coaching & ACT can help you sort out your priorities, focus on what really matters to you and bring balance back into your life.
-
Do you find big decisions really hard? Can’t seem to stick with the plans you make? Solution-Focussed Brief Therapy (SFBT) or Coaching (Positive Psychology) might be just what you need.
Someone to walk beside you as you grow.
