Anxiety can affect people in many different ways. You might find yourself constantly worrying, overthinking situations, struggling to switch off, feeling tense or experiencing panic. Sometimes there may be an obvious reason for these feelings; at other times, it can be difficult to understand why you feel anxious at all.
I offer a calm, confidential and supportive space where we can explore what you are experiencing at a pace that feels comfortable for you. Face-to-face counselling is available from my private counselling space in Herne Bay, alongside online and telephone sessions.
Anxiety is a natural response to situations we find stressful or uncertain. But when anxious thoughts or feelings become difficult to manage, they can begin to affect everyday life.
You may experience:
• Constant worrying or overthinking
• Difficulty relaxing or switching off
• Panic or feelings of being overwhelmed
• Social anxiety or avoiding certain situations
• Problems sleeping
• Irritability or difficulty concentrating
• Physical tension or feeling constantly on edge
• Worry about work, relationships, family or the future
Everyone experiences anxiety differently. You don't need to wait until things feel unbearable before considering counselling.
Counselling gives you the opportunity to talk openly about what is happening without judgement or pressure.
As an integrative counsellor, I don't believe that one approach is right for everyone. We can work together to understand your individual experiences, recognise patterns that may be contributing to anxiety and explore ways of responding differently to difficult thoughts and feelings.
The aim isn't simply to tell you how to stop worrying. It is to help you develop a better understanding of yourself and find ways of managing life's challenges that feel right for you.
I offer counselling for adults and teenagers from my private counselling space in Herne Bay, Kent.
The counselling space is separate from my home, with parking and easy access available.
If attending in person isn't convenient, I also offer online and telephone counselling, allowing you to access support from wherever you feel most comfortable.
