Availability and Waiting List
If our availability is limited, you can opt to be added to our waiting list, and we will typically see you within two weeks. Alternatively, you might consider starting with brief therapy (2 to 4 sessions) a biweekly basis for faster access to support. This approach allows you to engage in counselling and address your immediate concerns while waiting for more availability for weekly sessions. It ensures you receive support rather than waiting until weekly sessions become available.
Telling your story
Therapeutic support can be a great tool for self-development, you can gain increased self-awareness, gain helpful tools to aid you in self-care and self-regulation.
To begin, it is worth asking yourself: "what is going to make the most difference to me right now?" and take the first answer that comes up, or the thought that is most present in your mind, that seems to linger in your mind.

Shame and Guilt
When shame is managed properly through first establishing
safety - safety in relationship, and sense of self.
Speaking from the heart empathetically, reconnecting and
repairing, enables the individual to understand that your
relationship with them is not lost, i.e.
'it's not you, it's the behaviour; it's not our relationship, it is me simply teaching you appropriate behaviour'. By so doing,
the painful experience of shame can be decreased, which
enables the individual to develop empathy...

Attachment
The need for healthy and secure attachment is universal. When feelings of anxiety and insecurity are experienced, a child needs the safety, protection and close contact of their main caregivers. For within this close connection and interaction, the child begins to learn and experience vital information and skills - they experience themselves being experienced by others. As a result, they learn about themselves and the world around them.
Bowlby 1969 describes attachment as: a deep affectionate and emotional bond between two persons, that endures and connects the two individuals across time and space. Such is the beauty and importance of attachment.
