Life Issues
Counselling can help you to reflect upon challenges and decisions and to cope emotionally. There may be changes due to physical or mental illness, divorce, children leaving home, redundancy and retirement. Perhaps you are bereaved and grieving, or experiencing tensions in relationships. Recently the Coronavirus has affected many of us in various ways. Counselling in Harrow and online can also help with trauma, abuse and bullying issues.
Self-Exploration
Whilst working with issues that are important to you it is very likely that you will develop deeper understandings of yourself, your relationships and your interactions with others. This tends to be a natural and rewarding process. You may choose to look at how you identify yourself, including beliefs, ethnicity, gender and sexuality, and to explore social, psychological and spiritual areas. Counselling in Harrow covers Bushy, Stanmore, and Pinner.
Supervision
Supervision helps you to meet the needs of clients and supervisees and to take good care of yourself. We explore your work and attend to personal and professional development. Together we reflect upon any concerns and dilemmas that occur. I supervise experienced therapists and trainees, supporting work in placements, schools, organisations and private practice, and helping you to prepare for BACP Accreditation.
Focusing in North West London
Perhaps you have tried pushing difficult feelings and emotions away hoping to feel better. Instead the feelings just become stronger. With Focusing we are in relationship with our feelings in an accepting and empathic way that allows them to change naturally. We recognize that our body knows and can tell us what we need for physical and emotional health, bringing deeper understandings of ourselves, our wants and our needs.
