Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum Counselling in Sittingbourne

Welcome, people call me Laura. I guess you are looking to make things better. Quality counselling could really help you ease struggles. Often people avoid therapy, fearing judgment, or loss of control. My clients say they “feel lighter” from our first session, and therapy is very helpful and easy to engage with. Our sessions would be a collaboration, bringing empathy and many techniques and theories including trauma informed, Person-Centred (Humanistic) and inner child therapy. Together we would form a therapy plan just for you. I offer calm Neurodivergent friendly therapy. I offer a free no obligation 15-minute consultation T/call.

Do you find yourself feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stressed? I am here to support you manage and reduce these feelings, while also boosting your self-esteem and confidence. Together, we can work towards rediscovering your true self and finding a sense of peace. It's completely normal to feel lost or confused about your emotions. I provide a judgment-free environment where you can freely express yourself and make positive changes to progress in your life.

I have been a therapist for 11 years . My aim is to provide a confidential, non-judgemental and accepting environment where I can help you explore your issues no matter what they are. Unresolved issues can cause great unhappiness and therapy can help to unlock suppressed feelings and emotions. I work in a cosy environment to help you feel comfortable. I offer face to face and zoom sessions.

I am a very experienced integrated therapist for both mental and physical issues. I work with both individuals and couples, offering help with the stresses of everyday life such as Anxiety, Anger and Depression as well as marriage guidance and a range of relationship problems. I can help with ongoing chronic issues such as addiction, abuse, past and present traumas and other concerns. I aim to tailor the style of therapy to suit your needs and encourage an initial session to assess how best to work with you.

Life can be challenging and overwhelming at times, making us feel lonely, sad, anxious and stressed. Our thoughts can become unclear, tangled up and sometimes we just cannot stop overthinking. We can even isolate ourselves and feel like there is no way out. Counselling can be a safe and non-judgmental form of relating that might bring a positive change, more clarity and a deeper understanding of our feelings, thoughts and the ways we behave.

Welcome. By offering compassion, new information and an emphasis on finding solutions, my clients find themselves ‘working’ and having ‘hope’ from the first session. I am an Accredited Counsellor, PICT Psychotherapist, Registered Adoption Counsellor, and PICT Clinical Supervisor. I provide pathways of resolution for the effects of trauma, abuse, anxiety and ongoing issues that affect your daily functioning and quality of life. Since 2004, I’ve successfully built and nurtured a thriving therapy practice working with adults. I have acquired substantial training and experience working in public and private industries.

We live in an extremely busy world where it can feel that no one has the time for us as individuals, sometime not even ourselves; but finding our voices and actually being heard can be very powerful and rewarding. Deciding that you might need or want to see a counsellor can feel like a big step, but even just the fact that you are looking for one is that first step on your journey.

As an Accredited Integrative Counsellor & EMDR Therapist I understand that you are unique and I will adapt my professional skills to your needs. I have extensive experience working with Trauma, PTSD, Anxiety, Phobias, Depression, Bereavement, Stress, Low Self Esteem and much more. I aim to provide a warm, accepting environment that is confidential and safe. Developing a supportive, non-judgmental relationship to facilitate self understanding, new insights and to help individuals find new ways of being. I work with adults and young adults providing long or short term therapy.

I am a qualified BACP Accredited Integrative Counsellor and EMDR Practitioner, warm, approachable and work in a collaborative and pragmatic way, with the aim to provide you with the space and opportunity to restore and develop new ways of coping.  I have been working with people for over 10 years within the NHS and privately, who have been experiencing difficulties in their lives, emotionally distressed or struggling in some way.  This may be with anxiety and depression, low self esteem following a relationship break up, or have gotten into the habit of thinking about themselves or the world negatively.

Firstly I would like to show my admiration for you making this courageous decision to look for help. I know how it feels to be stuck within the world, within yourself. To suffer great sadness and hopelessness. I too, once sat in the client's chair and can appreciate, how significant taking this first step is... Relationships, connections are so powerful within our world. Have you ever thought about the relationship you have with yourself? At Bulb Therapy , I walk alongside you, providing you a safe space to find new meanings, and a greater awareness of who you are and how together we can tackle your difficulties effectively.

Ind/couple/ EMDR.Therapist. There is often constant pressure in today's society, which can cause us to feel low, unhappy, anxious,overwhelmed, judged, or stressed. Life events such as loss, financial problems, devoice, retirement, long term illness, work etc. add to that pressure. This can affect our behaviour causing us to withdraw, isolate ourselves or become angry and lash out. These unhealthy behaviours and coping strategies can affect our relationships. Unresolved issues from our past can also resurface particularly trauma. I can help you feel more confident in your ability to cope and gain a more positive sense of self.
