Is “over thinking” or thoughts playing on your mind like an old record player?

Words, talk and sentences just go round and round in the brain and you feel you are going nowhere.  This may be what is meant when we say we are “over-thinking”  or ruminating, a feature of anxiety.

When you feel stuck or like you are going round in circles, there are many ways you can change this through counselling – not just talking.

Play  can be a great way to get past or underneath the words.  We might use sand tray and natural objects and figures and toy sized models.  There are other “creative apporaches” in the counselling room too, which stimulate the other side of the brain!

Your therapist may suggest different resources.  Why not be the first to suggest you play and use a creative approach in your session?

Need counselling during your course?

Hello and welcome to those who have signed on to study counselling and psychotherapy.  Whether you have been the client in therapy, or need to explore this experience, this is a requirement of many courses.  Furthermore, you may need to find a therapist like myself, with the “accreditation” status from BACP or other organisation.

You can find my practice near the seafront in Worthing centre.  A trial session costs £20, and the ongoing fee for students is £30.

The lower fee is also available to other students.

You first counselling session is £20

Choosing your counsellor can be a daunting prospect.

So I want to make our meeting as comfortable and relaxed as possible.  Your first appointment is a getting to know session.  It is also a mini taste of counselling.  You can expect to feel listened to with real interest and warmth, and respect for confidentiality.

As a welcome to my Counselling Practice, I can offer a discount to those on low income, for every session.

Mention ‘the low income offer’ and your fee for counselling sessions is £35 (full fee now £45)
