You are likely here because you or someone you care about are going through a difficult time and you want to explore ways to work through those challenges and ultimately, feel better and function better.
You might feel burdened by the demands of life because you don't feel right within yourself or in your relationships with others.
You might know things are not right because:
* You are anxious and preoccupied with your thoughts.
* Your moods are changeable as are your energy levels.
* You have a sense of emptiness.
* You feel a deep loneliness.
* Life feels stressful, demanding or unsatisfying.
* Your relationships are a constant source of pain and disappointment.
* Your self-esteem is low.
*You are managing your feelings and struggles in unhealthy ways.
* You feel without hope or motivation.
You are not alone if you do feel this way and there are many reasons why life might feel difficult right now: past trauma, a difficult or damaging childhood, hurtful relationships or daily life struggles can really take their toll. Sometimes we don't know why we feel the way we do, we just know it hurts.
Please know that with the right support, you can feel better about yourself, have renewed energy, a brighter outlook and more balance in your life. I'm here to help you find clarity and direction and help heal past wounds.
About Therapy:
Seeking out therapy can be a heady mix of anxiety, anticipation, doubt and even excitement. You may find you have a lot of questions or you may not know where to start or what you are looking for.
Questions may include: Will I be safe? Will I be judged? Will it be confidential? What happens during counselling? What can I expect? How much does it cost? How do I find the right Counsellor for me?
These are all important questions and I am happy to talk through any you might have. To facilitate this, I offer a free 20-minute consultation over the telephone or via video call. To arrange, call or text to 07496 936359 or email ooven5575@gmail.com
Please take a look at the section 'Services & Fees to find out more about individual therapy (50-minutes) Couples Therapy (one hour) and Single Session Therapy (90-minutes, followed by two 30-minute sessions)
A little about me.
I am a Professional Fully Qualified Counsellor and member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy with a broad range of experience working with a local Counselling Charity alongside my Private Practice.
My approach is to build a relationship of trust and hope as we work together to explore the difficulties you are facing and find ways to heal and move forward. Good therapy means having your problems, no matter how big or how small, met with compassion and respect.
Online or telephone counselling provides a safe, confidential space to explore and work through issues that are causing you pain, sadness, stress or are simply holding you back. Sessions can be conducted from the comfort of your own home, your work space or any place of your choosing where you can be comfortable and have privacy.
I know from experience that simply being heard, without agenda, without pre-conceptions and without judgement can be a profoundly powerful experience.
The relationship that we build is the foundation of the work that we will do together and as such, finding a therapist that you feel comfortable with - that is the right 'fit’, is essential. I want all of my Clients to have that experience and that is why I invite you to a have an initial get together to get a feel for what our sessions would be like. I have a wonderful network of fellow Counsellors that I can refer you to if you decide that I am not the right Counsellor for you.
