Sally Pendreigh

What matters to me is what matters to you, what's making something in your life difficult at the moment. My counselling offers you space to voice the thoughts that may have been charging around, unfinished, in your head. When you don't have to defend how you feel, worry about sounding confused or contradictory or protect others' feelings, you're free to be more open and honest about things and with yourself. That, in turn, can help clarify what's going on for you, and how you might want to deal with things in future.

I have particular experience and interest in working with:-

-Difficult feelings (anger, envy, guilt, hurt, longing, rejection, resentment, shame)

-Losses which aren't recognised by others, or are hidden and can't be talked about for some reason

-Issues rooted in childhood experiences

-Birth-related issues - abortion, adoption, infertility, miscarriage, stillbirth

-Sudden and traumatic deaths - including murder, suicide, road and drug deaths

-People who experience their emotions as physical sensations in their body
