Welcome to Woodland Walk Counselling.
I understand that life’s challenges are unique and complex to all individuals. As a counselling professional I’m here to help you find yourself and realise your full potential. If you’re feeling lost or stressed, I can help you to move forward.
Welcome
Life is like a walk in the woods.
The woods can be a beautiful, magical place, the path can be clear and easy to navigate, but it's often easy to get lost. The path can become blocked by brambles and stinging nettles, slowing you down. Fallen trees or branches can block your path completely.
Sometimes, you may be able to see where you need to go, but can't get there, and other times it may seem there is no way out.
It's so easy to stray from the path, and you may be sat on that fallen tree that's blocking your way, unsure what to do. Or you may clamber over it, only to find there is no clear path to follow...
I can help you navigate through the woods, guide you to a clear, open path. Assist you through the overgrown, overwhelming brambles, fallen branches and rabbit holes that are holding you back.
As a Counselling Professional I offer a confidential, safe, non judgemental environment for my clients to explore their thoughts and feelings around areas of difficulty within their life.
I can help you identify and achieve your personal goals and offer you support to enable you to cope with the issues that are causing disharmony within your life. I can provide you with the tools and techniques to achieve a balanced and fulfilling lifestyle and the confidence to handle issues effectively whenever and wherever they arise.
As my client, you can expect to feel understood, valued and respected while we work together towards the changes that you would like to see within your life, thus feeling empowered to face all those ups and downs of daily life.
I take great pride in the progress and success of my clients, and look forward to helping you.
Reach out. I'll take your hand and we can walk forward together.
About Me
Everyone has a past. Everyone has a present. Everyone has a future.
This includes me.
My past has shaped me into the person I am today. My life experiences gave me the drive to help others that may be experiencing the same difficulties, or indeed any difficulties, unsure of how to proceed, how to cope and move forward.
Some of us have more than our fair share of life's thunder storms and I wish someone had offered me shelter, or at the very least an umbrella.
But I found my way out of the woods, can live in the present and know there is a future, regardless of the emotional scars from the past.
I believe that our past does not define us. We learn from it and it shapes us into who we are. Life throws obstacles at us all the time, some of these we can side step, others stop us in our tracks. I'm no different, we are all human after all and help is available.
I am trained and experienced in various counselling techniques and approaches, but rather than using one technique rigidly, I prefer to use an integrative approach which utilises a variety of methods to suit the needs of each individual. After all, one size does not fit all, and we are all different. We are all unique and we are all individual, and I'm here for you - whether you need shelter or an umbrella.
I am fully insured and a member of the National Counselling Society.
What is Counselling?
Counselling is a talking therapy that allows you to talk about your problems and feelings in a secure, confidential environment with a trained professional.
Counselling isn't just working with a current issue or problem that has surfaced, it also helps you to deal with any deep rooted issues from your past that are affecting you here in the present.
Counselling is often seeked by those wanting to change something in their life in terms of emotional wellbeing.
A counsellor {or therapist} can not fix you or your problem, but can help you understand why you feel, or behave, the way you do. By uncovering root causes and your way of thinking, changes can be made to help you deal with your issues and coping strategies put in place.
Counselling is a journey. In order to be effective it requires time and consistency. Usually weekly sessions are advised to optimise the process of healing and to achieve the positive outcome you wish to see.
Sometimes we just need to stop and enjoy the view
Do you feel like you are always adding new tasks to your to-do list but never crossing anything out?
Are you always rushing around and feel like you never have enough time?
Forgotten who you are?
Do you want to achieve your personal and/or professional goals?
It's time to start taking control of your life.
It's time for you.
It's OK to not be OK
Life throws many surprises at us, and while we cannot predict the outcome of any situation, we can take control of how we respond to certain situations.
Whether you are experiencing an immediate crisis, such as bereavement or relationship break down, or you are experiencing more long term issues { anxiety, depression, feeling low}, or even if something from the past is stopping you from moving forward, get in touch.
Can't see the wood for the tree's?
It's so easy to get lost, and losing your way can be scary.
Hold out your hand and I'll walk with you.
Together we will find the right pathway out.
