About me
You may be experiencing anxiety and/or depression, relationship issues, having difficult and confusing feelings following a bereavement, family upset, stress, work or health related issues, life transitions or any other challenging life experience.
Do you feel:
-
distressed, unhappy, angry, or confused?
-
feel you have lost the meaning in life?
-
that you are struggling with emotional issues?
-
stuck and frustrated or scared and apprehensive.?
Or:
* you may be encountering feelings of loneliness, fearfulness, embarrassment, hopelessness, or worry
* you might feel like you are being blamed for something
* pressurised into doing something you don't want to do.
Perhaps you don't know exactly what is wrong.
You simply have a sense that something isn't quite right.
I am a Person-Centred counsellor and a Registered member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP), with over sixteen years experience of counselling clients within:
*a well established private practice
*hospital settings
*charitable organisation
*GP surgeries
All of which have provided me with a wealth of understanding of life's difficulties experienced by people.
I offer a Warm, Personal, Confidential and Professional service, providing counselling to individuals and couples aged 18+ in West Lancashire and surrounding area's
Together, in a calm and non-judgemental way we will explore issues that are causing you emotional distress, helping you to gain a greater self-understanding, increased self-awareness and work through past and present life experiences that are causing you difficulty. I can help you realize your abilities, make decisions, have more fulfilling relationships and determine your own way forward.
Lasting and meaningful change can come about through this counselling process, leading to you living a more creative and fulfilling life.
For any further information or to arrange an initial appointment please telephone/txt me on 07534401892 or telephone a number from above. Alternatively email me on bcstherapy@mail.com.
