Thoughts on therapy from a Stamford Counsellor
Why Counselling?
In chats with potential clients I'm often asked whether counselling could help. There's no definitive answer - effective psychotherapy is a collaboration between therapist and client, so there are endless variables, but based on my client's experiences, here are some changes you might be able to make
Thoughts on Therapy from a Counsellor in Stamford
Are you nervous about seeing a counsellor?
If you've never seen a counsellor before, it can seem a daunting prospect. So if you think you'd like you'd like to talk, but the thought is somewhat scary, I've written some blogs to try to help you feel more at ease...
What would counselling be like?
Maybe this would be your first experience of counselling? If so, I get how nervous this could make you feel. So my first priority is to help you feel as safe and comfortable as I can.
My starting point is to see you as a unique individual, with your own history,
relationships, worries, problems, hopes and dreams.
I'm here to listen to you fully, to really understand how it is for you right now.
You can share anything knowing that I'll remain calm. I'll validate your struggles and I won't tell you what to do or judge you.
Exploring your past can lead to lasting change, but you may want to focus on issues you're facing now. Either way, I won't pressure you to talk about anyting you aren't ready for.
Your psychological safety is important to me, so we'll work at a pace that feels right for you.
From my personal experience I know that sharing your troubles, feeling understood,
considering what you really want, and learning new ways to manage anxiety, can have
a life-changing impact on the way that you feel.
