Individual Counselling, Affect-State Therapy & Supervision

Counselling.                                                                                                                     At times, we all face life’s challenges — transitions, loss, anxiety, stress, or unexpected hardship. During these periods, it’s common to feel overwhelmed or disconnected. Individual counselling offers a supportive space to explore life’s chanllenges, gain clarity, and begin the process of healing. It's a chance to be deeply heard and to understand yourself more fully in the context of your experiences.                                                                                                    Counselling can help you:                                                                                 * Navigate personal or professional challenges                                             * Explore emotional responses or patterns                                                   * Manage symptoms of anxiety, depression, or grief                                   * Deepen self-awareness and self-compassion

Our work together will involve meaningful conversations that foster understanding, insight, and change — opening the door to a more connected, loving, and fulfilling way of being.

Affect-State Therapy                                                                                               Affect-State Therapy is an accelerated and experiential form of psychotherapy designed to uncover and resolve deep emotional or psychological issues. It goes beyond intellectual insight, aiming instead to reach and release the core emotional experiences that may be fuelling symptoms or relational difficulties. 

Key principles include:
  * Working with emotions that may be outside of conscious awareness
  * Addressing internal resistance to feeling painful or frightening emotions
  * Facilitating rapid and transformative change
Affect-State Therapy is often helpful for individuals whose symptoms have not improved through traditional talk therapy or medication. Symptoms can be psychological (e.g., anxiety, depression) or physical (e.g., headaches, fatigue, breathlessness) without an identifiable medical cause.

I find this video of Brene Brown especially inspiring - it captures the essence of the counselling journey and the potential for deep, meaningful change.
