Feeling nobody quite "Gets YOU?" Impulsive, disorganised, head scrambled, masking due to ADHD/ASD? Drugs or alcohol used to self medicate, relax or cope with stress but now noticed its getting out of control? Anxiety and panic attacks starting to control your life but not sure the trigger? Or do you just have a sense something is wrong but struggle to open up or express how you feel to your partner, family or friends? The beauty of talking to a counsellor is I am neutral and independent of your situation which can make it easier to open up and explore your feelings and thoughts.
I have experience working in schools in SEN, addiction services and criminal justice supporting with alcohol and substance misuse, complex mental health including anxiety and depression, ADHD, ASD, BPD, paranoia, suicidal thoughts and self-harm.
Person-centred counselling is like a talking therapy. It is unique for clients struggling with addiction/mental health as I view you as the expert of your life and I am not here to judge or tell you what you should be doing, but rather empathetically listen and get to understand your needs. Interested? Contact me with any questions or to book.
