My philosophy centres around our natural ability to heal when there is balance created between the physical, emotional and environmental factors in our lives.Welcome to VP CounsellingMy philosophy centres around our natural ability to heal when there is balance created between the physical, emotional and environmental factors in our lives (homeostasis).
Our body is designed to naturally seek out this healthy life balance. Homeostasis helps us combat the impact of what we come across in our daily lives to help keep us nourished both physically and mentally.
This process can be disrupted through experiences such as: - Trauma
- Loss & grief
- Sexuality
- Sexual abuse
- Relationship concerns
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Self-image
- Self-esteem
- Addiction
- Loneliness
- Family conflict
These experiences can cause conflict within ourselves which we may no longer be able to cope with on our own.
In my experience, engaging with a trained counsellor and acknowledging ‘out loud’ our issues, fears and concerns can offer welcomed relief from the heavy burden of having to ‘go it alone’ or that ‘nobody understands’. Having permission to express yourself freely within the secure confines of a trusting counselling relationship can offer a renewed sense of hope, clarity and direction.
My counselling practice can offer you a safe and calm space to explore the concerns you are experiencing. Through a process of gentle non-judgemental enquiry we can start to understand how your own personal situation is affecting you. Together we can begin the journey of unlocking your inner awareness and developing a plan to help restore your body’s natural balance.
When this type of awareness is experienced in the “here and now” of the counselling relationship, there can be an opening up to pathways of greater choice in life, and with choice comes the possibility of an increased sense of freedom and control.
