Individual Counselling

Our work is tailored to you, with a focus on creating meaningful, lasting change. We help adults experiencing:

• Life adjustments (e.g. changes to career, transitions between major life events)

• Interpersonal issues (e.g. relationship breakup, issues with managing conflict, 'people-pleasing' behaviours, difficulty setting boundaries, feeling misunderstood)

• Grief and loss (e.g. struggling with unresolved grief, recent loss of a loved one)

• Depression, anxiety and OCD (e.g. hopelessness, low mood, loss of pleasure in life, fear of uncertainty, overthinking, intrusive thoughts)

• Stress and burnout (e.g. emotional/physical exhaustion, difficulty 'switching off')

• Emotion regulation (anger management, navigating unpleasant feelings such as shame, guilt, resentment)

• Identity (e.g. low contentment/fulfilment in life, life feels directionless, loss of purpose, uncertainty about values/beliefs, cultural issues, LGBTIQ+)

• Self-esteem/self-worth (e.g. low self-confidence, harsh self-criticism, feeling ‘not good enough’)

Our approach integrates evidence-based approaches such as cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), schema therapy, emotion-focused strategies, and positive psychology.

Depending on your needs we may:

• Explore and reshape unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours

• Develop healthier ways of relating to others, including communication, boundaries, and managing conflict

• Build emotional awareness and learn practical strategies to manage stress and overwhelming feelings

• Change the impact of past experiences and long-standing patterns

• Clarify your values and support you to live in greater alignment with them

• Strengthen resilience, self-awareness, and overall wellbeing
