Face to Face Counselling
Putting the Focus on You
A space for you, about you.
A safe, confidential space.
A space without judgement.
Whatever is going on is impacting on you today!
You just need a helping hand to pull you out…
It's Time to Talk About You
You deserve so much more than what you are going through.
You are worth so much more than the negative messages you hear all the time. It’s draining when all you want to feel is excited, energised and alive!
To have a different outcome.
You need to create some space. A space where you can explore all you are experiencing.
You need someone to talk to.
The Therapeutic Space
You are giving yourself the time to explore what is going on and find your path.
Using the time in your own way and at your own pace to examine those areas causing you concern.
My role is assisting you in finding your own answers and solutions that are unique to you and your experience, to realise your own potentiality.
Let's Talk About You
Who are you?
Who do you want to be
What has happened?
I would like to hear your story.
Your Space to Explore and Discuss What's Going On For You.
You might be feeling anxious and vulnerable, wondering where this journey may take you.
You may be feeling.."l'd like to really achieve something in life, but I never get round to doing anything about it."
This might be the first time you've ever taken time for you.
The idea of talking to someone may feel silly or pointless.
