Face to Face counselling - Dean Clough, Halifax, West Yorkshire.
Online & telephone counselling - UK wide
My journey into counselling started when changes in my family life made me stop and think about what I really wanted from life and where I was heading. I’d spent years working as a plasterer, but I decided to take a different path, becoming a stay-at-home parent and training to be a counsellor. It was a big decision and, although it felt right, it also brought plenty of worries and uncertainty about what I was letting myself in for!
Going through that change myself has helped me understand how difficult life can feel when things shift, or when we know something needs to change but aren't quite sure what to do next. Sometimes we get stuck in our own heads, go round in circles or struggle to see a way forward. Having someone to talk things through with can really help.
I think we can all be guilty of thinking our problems aren't important enough to talk about, especially when other people seem to have it worse. But if something's bothering you, it matters. You don't need to have all the answers or even know exactly what's wrong.
I'm not here to judge you or tell you how to live your life. I'm here to listen, help you make sense of things and work alongside you to find a way forward that feels right for you.
Thinking about counselling?
If things are getting on top of you, or you just feel that something needs to change, I'd be happy to have a chat. You don't need to know where to start or have everything figured out before getting in touch. We can talk about what's brought you here and see how you feel about working together.
