Michelle Johnson

I offer one to one individual counselling and couples counselling in a warm and confidential environment.   I work as an Integrative counsellor. Integrative just means a 'bringing together' of differing approaches, this means that I can draw on different counselling methods to form an approach appropriate and individual to you.  Painful or difficult feelings, repeated patterns of behaviour or troubled relationships often have their origins in past experience and it can sometimes be difficult to make the connection or to understand why these difficulties continue to affect our lives. Left unaddressed or unexplored, these painful feelings can become suppressed yet they are not forgotten and can express themselves in ways that are increasingly harmful in nature and can leave us feeling more confused and with very little choice.  These aspects can often influence the core needs we all have for security, self-worth and significance. Sometimes it feels very difficult to impose our problems on our friends and family and at these times it can help to have support from someone impartial. Counselling can help you to discover things about yourself and gain an understanding that may help you to make changes that are helpful to you.
