How I can help - counselling
Initial consultation.
Finding a counsellor you can trust to help you make sense of your concerns is important.
I offer an initial free telephone consultation. This is a chance for you to see if I am the right counsellor for you and if you would feel comfortable working with me. It also helps me to understand your issues and how we could work best together.
How Counselling can help
Counselling is a talking therapy, where you can connect with and make sense of your feelings and problems in a dependable and confidential space. When facing difficulties in life that are hard to deal with alone, working with a counsellor can help you to overcome these challenges.
Counselling has many ways of helping, including:
providing perspective to help you see the bigger picture
tools to empower yourself to become regulated and feel in control
challenging and changing unhelpful and limiting beliefs
processing trauma, grief and adversity
increasing resilience & self-worth
helping you connect back to your true self
feel unstuck, and much more.
Nobody knows you better than you know yourself, even if you can’t connect to that currently. Feelings can be overwhelming to navigate alone, but working with a counsellor can help you regain and connect to who you are and what you want in life. Finding ways to make sense of and cope with the challenges you have faced or are facing can help you to get the best out of your life moving forwards.
Are you:
Experiencing feelings such as anxiety, depression, overwhelm, anger, shame, guilt, sadness, loneliness?
Do you feel a sense of hopelessness?
Struggling with low self-esteem?
Struggling with negative thought?
Feeling stuck or trapped?
Withdrawing from things you usually enjoy?
Using unhealthy coping mechanisms?
Feeling you have lost control?
Feeling relationships are strained?
Simply needing to talk to someone?
If so, counselling can help. We all have within us, the power and freedom to change our own behaviour and thoughts, and how we choose to respond to them. Seed Counselling can help you to achieve this. You don’t have to do this alone.
