Individual Therapy
Personal Therapy, is a place where a person will experience true acceptance, non judgement and empathy. We work together to build trust, and together walk your unique path towards a greater sense of self and overall enjoyment of life.
what can you expect
Imagine that you are going on a hike, one that you've known deep down you've always needed to undertake, but have avoided,. Although some parts are beautiful, you know it's scary and painful at points.
The role I would be as your counsellor, is to be your companion on that journey. A journey that is led by you and entirely at your pace.
Together we'll work through the places that seem a bit too much for you to face on your own. No matter what emotions you experience, you will not be alone with them - not this time.
Meeting weekly, we journey together reflecting on what you've learnt along the way and explore some of the origins of those thoughts, feelings and emotional responses.
When we reach your goals, we will have a positive ending and part ways.
What is is not
I'm not here to give you the answers. I wish it was that easy. And lets face it, that's what other people have done for you. They've told you what you should or shouldn't do, what you must or must not do. We'll explore what it is that you truly want to do, and work through what's been stopping you.
What Type of Counselling
Trauma Counseling
If you've experienced trauma, it's important to seek help from a qualified therapist. As a Trauma Informed Therapist, I am trained and experienced to help you work through the trauma and develop healthier behaviours in your future where you control your Trauma, it doesn't control you anymore.
We offer a variety of trauma-focused therapies to meet your unique needs.
Coming Soon EMDR Trauma Therapy (Feb 2024)
Neurodiversity Support
Neurodiversity support for those seeking to understand what their diagnosis means for them and their relationships. Maybe you suspect you are one of the great undiagnosed, maybe you have a diagnosis and want to seek to understand who you are and what it means for you to navigate the work whilst unravelling the layers of masks you have acquired over a lifetime. Maybe you are a partner or relative of someone with neurodiversity and you're seeking to understand how you can communicate and support your person better. I will seek to build a framework, some scaffolding around whatever your scenario is so you can move more sure footed through the world.
Male Focused Therapy
For men, reaching out for support with their mental wellbeing is a tough step. Typically they will sit with their thoughts and feeling pushed deep down until it becomes unbearable before they reach out for support. I take their enquiries seriously. If you want support, I am here and ready to hold that (whatever it is) with you.
Stress Management
Stress is a natural part of life, but when it becomes overwhelming, it can have a negative impact on our mental and physical health leading to feelings of Anxiety and/or Depression. Stress management services are designed to help you learn practical strategies to manage stress and improve your overall well-being.
Grief & Loss Counseling
Grief counseling services can help you cope with the loss of a loved ones or something from your life. Loss takes many forms, not just Bereavement, but The Bloom Room provides a safe and supportive environment where you can explore your feelings of grief, gain insights into your behaviour, and develop scaffolding and a framework of strategies to manage your grief and assist with moving forward.
Anything Goes...
My role at assessment is to make sure that we will be the best match so you get the best possible outcome from your investment into seeking support.
