In Person Counselling in Hawkhurst

Feelings of anxiety and depression can grow and grow until it feels like there isn't room for anything else in your life. Whether you have a specific problem you’re struggling with or simply feel that there’s something that doesn’t feel right in your life – overwhelmed and in turmoil or feeling that you’re existing under a shadow on the outskirts of life – I’m here to offer you a calm, supportive haven where we can focus on you and find a way for you to feel in control of your life, and at peace with yourself.

I have a broad experience of working with people - charity work, MIND, Samaritans, 20 years in the corporate sector and working on personal development retreats. I believe we are all unique. However this uniqueness, our essence, is usually suppressed in order to prioritise coping with life's events/challenges. This adapting can generate a personality which no longer serves us. This often manifests as anxiety, depression or loss of purpose - an invitation to dive beneath the patterns and rediscover what we want from our lives and relationships.

We are all unique individuals. I see people who suffer from anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship difficulties and trauma as well as other difficulties. I will aim to help you make sense of what is currently going on for you and then to set goals or a way forward.. I believe that clients need to experience compassion and kindness as well as often, a structured way of working with specific difficulties. If structure is less of a goal and need, I aim to provide a settling in which trust is foremost and so creating a safe space to talk about difficult emotions.

Hi my name is Christina. I am a qualified and accredited cognitive behavioural therapist and a certified breathing coach. I am flexible and collaborate and do my utmost to develop and nurture the therapeutic relationship. I work in an exploratory way to understand the problems and to help you recognise how your current thinking styles and behaviours may be adversely affecting you. With this knowledge we can then work on discovering what changes can be made, so that you can start moving towards living a more balanced and fulfilling life.

Hello. I am a qualified and experienced BACP registered therapeutic counsellor and I offer to meet your needs with either short- or long-term counselling. I aim to create a safe, confidential and relaxed environment in which you and I can work together to explore and understand the difficulties you are experiencing and help you to find a way towards overcoming them. I meet you as an unique person and seek to understand and gain insight into how you experience your confusion, worry, discomfort, distress, or whatever concerns that you have.

If you are an individual or part of a couple that have issues around your relationship, or sexual relationship then please do get in contact. Perhaps your relationship is currently in crisis and nothing has changed, or perhaps you want to seek some help now before it gets any worse. It isn't always easy to sort these matters out by yourself and Couples Therapy can help you get your relationship back on track. I also specialise in sexual issues and compulsive sexual behaviour, which can also negatively affect your relationship, and I can help you to identify what these issues are and work towards helping you change this.

I am an experienced mental health therapist, specialising in inclusive, affordable and accessible therapy. I graduated with an MA in Dramatherapy in 2016 and since then have broadened my clinical experience and understanding to work in schools, charities and frontline NHS mental health services.

I have had a diverse set of clients in the last 14 years. Most clients come to our sessions with depression or anxiety. Some may have trauma or loss. I want clients to have independence of what they would like out of counselling. Some want CBT and I offer this. Some may want only a short number of sessions, others may wish to ask for long term counselling. Both of these can be negotiated throughout the therapy. Everybody wants to feel better and return to their former self. I want this too for all of my clients. Have a good day

Welcome to my profile, I work with adolescence & adults with a variety of problems that cause difficulties and may have a knock on effect with your loved ones. We often suffer in silence, truth is talking about your troubles, historical or current, can help to understand yourself better, to live a quality of life that best suits you. I facilitate this process, ensuring working within realistically achievable parameters. I qualified from Wealden Psychology Institute in East Sussex. Registered Member of BACP. I work in secondary schools with 11-18 year olds, I have a private practice offering counselling and supervision.

Anxiety or depression can manifest in many different ways: difficulty sleeping, loss of appetite, lack of enjoyment in favoured activities, lessening attention span, loss of or lack of identity, difficulty in clear thought or intrusive thoughts to name just a few. At times it's not always clear why we feel the way we do, perhaps you are feeling overwhelmed or are engaging in patterns of behaviour which are negatively affecting your life. Conversely you may be all too aware of events or relationships which have or are affecting your mental wellbeing and wish to explore these in a supportive and nurturing environment.

Hi I'm Alice, Does your anxiety or stress feel overwhelming and difficult to cope with? I specialise in helping clients to understand and manage their anxiety. Counselling empowers you and is life changing. I work with clients whose anxiety is a result of unresolved childhood issues, feeling' different', or have lost a sense of who they are. This impacts on relationships, self esteem, and health. I bring an experienced perspective to the difficulties clients have managing new situations or differences in culture, values, and beliefs. My clients express relief at releasing their shame, loss, or pain. As they heal, they move forward.

At times throughout our lives we can find ourselves struggling with certain issues that can come as part of every day life or around a specific event, whether that be a bereavement or loss, feelings of stress and anxiety, addiction, depression or low self-esteem. It is at these times that seeking support can help in working through whatever difficulties you are experiencing and to find a way forward. I am a qualified BACP registered counsellor working with both young people and adults. I have extensive experience in working with bereavement, loss and living with life limiting illness, along with stress, anxiety, and depression.

I’m warm and friendly and work in a very person-centred way. This means that I don’t use lots of techniques or give you homework, but rather I work with you to help you understand yourself better, and make decisions or changes.

My name is Jacqueline and I qualified as a counsellor in 2008. I have since worked with a wide variety of issues such as bereavement, anxiety, low self worth, lack of confidence, addiction, relational issues such as couples, autism, understanding self concept, shyness and much more. I believe that the professional working relationship between the counsellor and client is of fundamental importance as it provides opportunities in which change can occur. For that reason I provide a free assessment of your needs. Also meeting myself prior to engaging in any counseling will help you to decide if I would be the right counsellor for you.
