Depression is like looking at life through grey-tinted glasses rather than rose-tinted glasses. I can help you to build up your energy again and tackle the sense of hopelessness and lethargy that often pulls us down.
For the past 15 years I have worked in the NHS and within the charity sector.
I have extensive experience working with people struggling with issues such as depression, sadness, grief and anxiety.
Counselling provides a space for you to explore your experiences and feelings in a respectful and confidential space. The focus of the conversation is to understand your experience and provide support to explore the ways in which you can introduce change into your life.

Do you find it nearly impossible to get out of bed? Or if you can get out of bed do you drag yourself to work? Do you put off any chores possible to postpone? Do you hide away as much as you can, taking refuge in escapist behaviours such as sleeping too much/ drinking too much/social media etc? Depression is a debilitating lack of energy and hope. Coming to find me is a fantastic first step out of the shut-down shut-off spaces you have got stuck in. You can do it!
Therapy can help you to work with your feelings, thoughts, perceptions, and internal or external conflict. It gives you the opportunity to reflect on what is happening within your life and yourself; reduce confusion; consider alternative ways of doing things, make positive changes and to move forward into the life you want.
