Monica is a fully qualified Person-Centred Therapeutic Counsellor and a Registered Therapist with the BACP (British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy).
You could be struggling with feelings of low self-esteem, stress, anxiety or depression; or experiencing personal and relationship difficulties; or maybe struggling to come to terms with particular life events. It could be that you have suffered from loss or bereavement.
Monica provides a safe, confidential space in which to help you, to talk about and to explore personal issues. She is non-directive in her approach which means that you are able to explore your feelings in your own way and at your own pace.
Monica will listen to you very carefully, with empathy, warmth and understanding. She will help you to express your feelings and what is on your mind. In this way, a trusting therapeutic relationship will develop in which Monica will help you to understand yourself better and from that can follow healing and change.
Monica believes that within that special therapeutic relationship with a skilled and effective counsellor, you can begin to understand your feelings, situations and relationships in a new way. You will begin to find, with that support, that you will be able to understand yourself better. You will then be able to find your own solutions for things that you previously felt were unmanageable and from that can follow healing and change.
Monica also offers Couples/Relationship Counselling, which involves a more directive approach: looking at what may be happening within us as individuals, looking at our mind, body, brain and emotions, whilst at the same time considering that we do not exist in isolation.
Our experiences and behaviours are influenced by our society, culture, external environment and of course other people; our families, friends and lovers including those from our past and whilst growing up. So, couples and relationship counselling is about exploring how all these factors interact in both relationship to ourselves and in relationship to our partners and others.
It is important to find a counsellor with whom you feel comfortable so please do call and have a conversation with Monica to see whether you would like to work together.
