Children & Young People
School life in general, exams, family and friendship groups along with the latest social media trends can become overwhelming, anxiety inducing and not to mention stressful whilst all you are trying to do is fit in! Life can feel like it is getting too much and despite having peer groups and family, it is often hard to talk about these issues with those closest to you. Whether you are experiencing this yourself or are a parent of a child that is struggling, I can offer a space where I can best support you or your child to work through these issues.
Peri Menopause, Menopause and Post Menopause
There comes a time in a woman’s life when things that used to be undertaken with ease can suddenly become really difficult with no apparent explanation or reason why. Studies have shown that peri-menopause can be as debilitating as menopause and can start from as early as mid 30’s to mid 50’s and can last between 4 and 8 years. Symptoms can be experienced from brain fog, hot flushes and night sweats, but the lesser unknown symptoms can cause low mood, anxiety, depression, weight gain, disturbed sleep and irritability. Counselling can offer a safe space to talk through your individual experiences and how these symptoms can effect your daily life including relationships and your changing body.
Relationships
Strained relationships in our lives can often be difficult, whether it is a new relationship, long term marriage or changes in the family dynamics that a divorce can bring. Combined with juggling our day to day lives this can sometimes cause anxiety and be exhausting to manage. Counselling can help untangle all of these issues and help navigate what may be influencing your life in negative way. This process will enable you to slow down, examine and explore how you would like to progress in a calm, safe environment. This process will help connect with your inner self and help you become happier, fulfilled and at peace with the decisions you make.
