About me and my therapy practice
Have you thought about counselling for a while and want to take the first step? Maybe you are responding to others in ways you can't explain, and it is affecting your relationships. Or are you feeling lonely and confused following a breakup or bereavement?
I’m Diane, a qualified counsellor who understands how difficult it can be to reach out for support. I offer an accepting approach in a safe and private environment where we can explore your difficulties together.
In counselling, you choose the themes for discussion. It can help you make sense of your relationships with others and your emotions. You may gain an understanding of your thought patterns, decision-making processes and how you view yourself. By talking and engaging in counselling, you would have the time and space to discuss your uncertainties, doubts, and fears. We would go at your pace, ensuring you feel comfortable sharing when you are ready. I understand that reaching out for counselling can feel daunting, especially when you're feeling drained or unsure of what to expect.
Practice description
We would aim to develop a way of working together that is based on understanding and acceptance. Honesty and openness are integral to this approach, as we work together on your concerns.
I have experience working with people living with anxiety and depression, also those who are bereaved and going through the grieving process. I frequently work with adults who want to understand their relationships with partners, friends and colleagues and I often support those surviving trauma and experiencing feelings of doubt, guilt or shame. Counselling can enable people to learn more about themselves and how they relate to others. Exploring relationships can help achieve a deeper understanding of connections with other people, including those who have been lost.
I am able to arrange in-person counselling sessions near Harrogate. Additionally, I offer nationwide online counselling that can provide a highly effective and convenient way of accessing therapy.
