Hello, it's likely, if you have found this page, that you might be struggling with something in your life or feel that things just aren't quite right. During our lifetime some of us will experience life stresses such as bereavement, divorce, separation, children leaving home, school transitions, illness, and other events which maybe we didn't plan or envisage. Many of these we will handle but sometimes we can get thrown off course. Perhaps we might get a bit stuck in unhelpful ways of being and thinking, and have little time to reflect. I can provide you with a safe and confidential space in which to start thinking about how you want your life to be going forwards.
​
Systemic psychotherapy is non-judgmental, and when you feel you can't see the wood for the trees, it can help you to see your situation from other perspectives. I favour a narrative approach which utilises the existing strengths and resilience we all have within ourselves to help make positive changes.
​
I look forward to meeting some of you and working together.
Helen Hollingdale
