My career has involved working with the elderly and Children and young People from birth to 25 years of age in a professional and voluntary capacity and I have learnt a lot about the pressures of daily life for families. I trained as a Primary School teacher and subsequently worked for Northamptonshire County Council training and supporting childcare providers to offer meaningful provision to support their social, emotional, physical and intellectual development. More recently in my role as a volunteer working with 11- to 25-year-olds it appears many of these pressures come from school, exams, peer pressure, and aspirations for the future. Not to mention the effect Covid 19 has had on their well-being. My training and life experiences have also enhanced my ability to understand, and work with adults.
I believe that relaxation is key to helping to relieve many of these pressures, and with your permission may include some meditation or hypnotherapy to your treatment. Another method I might use to explore your well-being is the PERMA model, which assumes well-being can be truly met through five avenues: Positive Emotions, Engagement, Relationships, Meaning and Accomplishment. We might also explore some past events that have affected you.
I work from a private clinic in Daventry and I also offer online counselling via Zoom. Although our initial discussion might be by telephone, I would prefer face-to-face either in person or online, as I believe it helps to build a rapport if we can see each other. Whatever you choose I offer an empathic, safe and non-judgmental environment that enables you to feel self-aware and empowered to make positive changes to your life.
