In Person Counselling in Dartford

We may use different words to describe what's going on for us when we are looking for therapy: unsure, fed up, low, empty, frustrated, anxious, panicky, over-thinking, unable to sleep, too sensitive, or like can't carry on... Perhaps feeling not in control, not belonging, invisible or wanting to escape, or lost. It can be overwhelming, taking too much from us. So starting therapy is right. We can use therapy space, free of judgement, expectation or failure, to talk it all through and work things out.

I have been practising as a Counsellor for over 18 years and I am a Registered Member of the BACP. There are times in our lives when we feel unable to cope.

Hi, I'm Fiona. Welcome to my profile. I am an experienced, and qualified counsellor who loves her job. I understand how difficult it is to approach counselling, and know how daunting, scary and anxiety provoking it can be to choose the "right counsellor for you". Perhaps your daily life leaves you confused enough, without having to make yet another decision. Perhaps your goal is to understand yourself more fully, or learn ways of accepting past experiences, and finding a more relaxed, and happier way to move forward. If you are looking for someone patient, warm and non judgemental, I'd really like to be that person to help you.

Are you a parent worrying about your child or teenager's mental health? Are you a young person yourself who's struggling? I am a fully qualified, integrative counsellor working exclusively with young people aged 11-21 years. I have experience working with young people with a range of issues, such as anxiety, depression, self harm, low self esteem, issues with body image, relationship/ friendship issues, school issues, family conflicts, sexuality and gender identity. I am a member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy, have full public indemnity insurance, an enhanced DBS and additional safeguarding training.

Are you wondering how much longer you can endure things and know that something needs to change? Whether your difficulties are more recent or of a more long-standing nature, I believe we all have the inherent capacity to change. My approach is warm and collaborative. I offer a confidential, non-judgemental, and supportive space, through which in the context of a safe and validating relationship, you can explore and gain insight into whatever is troubling you. It is my aim to empower and support you to overcome difficulties so that you feel able to live the life you want to live.

If you are experiencing anxiety and depression whether it is due to events in your life or if you simply don't know why you are feeling like this, it can be very difficult to reach down within yourself and seek out your own resources to manage these feelings. Imagine being able to manage your own anxiety or depression in a way that gives you more control over these emotions rather than them having control over you, how liberating that would be. I feel that everyone has the power to do this but struggle to find their own resources for this. Taking that step in reaching out for counselling could be your first step towards this.

In this post pandemic world, many people are suffering from anxiety, depression and the trauma brought on by not only the insecurities of these times, but also by adverse childhood experiences.

I hope to offer you compassion, understanding and a listening ear, so you feel at ease within our therapeutic relationship and your well-being goals can be addressed through non-threatening Creative therapy.
