Teenagers feel emotions more intensely - here’s why…

The red flags are there to tell us a message and it’s up to us to either take action or ignore them

Anxiety is one of the common colds of mental health. When stress is left unattended, it can feed into anxiety. Good news is, it is treatable 💪

Self confidence is made up of self-esteem and self-efficacy. We often hear of self-esteem but not so much self-efficacy. In fact, both are required in order to build confidence. It’s not about whether you complete the task or not, it’s about the self-belief.

It doesn’t matter what age, s*x, race or beliefs someone may have - physical abuse is an intentional and deliberate action that causes injury or trauma to someone else through bodily contact. Call National Domestic Abuse Helpline 08082000247.

If you are caught in a cycle of causing abuse, please speak to a therapist to break the behaviour and learn to manage emotions in a healthier way.

It’s easier to function when our cups are full. What’s in your cup?

Anger is a normal emotion that can make us feel lots of uncomfortable physical changes. It can motivate us to take action but can also be destructive. Finding out what is making us angry and understanding that can help. Sometimes we feel anger when we remember the past, things are out of our control, we are scared or anxious. Ask yourself these questions and see if that helps.

Debra’s Story

When it comes to your emotional health and overall psychological well-being. It’s important to have a fully insured and knowledgeable professional you can turn to. Over the years, I’ve provided counselling and psychological services to clients throughout Greater Manchester and North Wales. My expertise covers a broad spectrum of mental health services, and I’m happy to share my experience and qualifications.

I have had an enhanced check and assessment by the Disclosure Barring Service (DBS) as being suitable to work with vulnerable adults. I am a registered member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy) and attend monthly supervision to ensure I not only carry out my work ethically but provide a service that is in the best interest for clients. As a member of the BACP, I attend Continued Professional Development (CPD) to ensure that I am up to date with current research and fully informed, to ensure that my clients gain full benefit from my support.

I hold an MSc in Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapy (University of Salford) and an Advanced Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling (The Manchester College). Below describes all my specialised areas and examples of work:

PSYCHOTHERAPIST

I am currently working with clients referred from NHS Wales Betsi Cadwaldr University Health Board. I offer short-term therapy for clients presenting with anxiety and/or depression issues. I listen to your problems and may suggest strategies for resolving your issues. This may include assisting clients in altering their attitudes and behaviour. Sessions look at how unhealthy behaviours can contribute to problematic experiences, therefore, clients may be required to actively take part in altering unhelpful thoughts or behaviours to aid recovery.

COGNITIVE BEHAVIOURAL THERAPIST

Clients were referred from NHS North West Eating Disorders Service. I applied Cognitive Behavioural Therapy - Enhanced (CBT-E) to aid recovery for clients with anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge-eating disorder. Each week, the aim was for clients to move closer towards their recovery. Depending on the presenting issue, an individual treatment plan is created to help shift the client towards change. Therapy may involve maintaining a food intake diary, identifying problems areas and applying strategies to alter food habits.

SUBSTANCE MISUSE COUNSELLOR

Clients were referred via self-referral, General Practitioners or other related services. I applied the person-centred approach to clients who have experienced past or current difficulties with drug and/or alcohol abuse. Therapy was also provided for friends and family members. Sessions involved understanding how drugs or alcohol play a part in your past or current issues and how you can manage this in order to work towards the life you hope for.

R**E & SEXUAL ABUSE COUNSELLOR

I provided victim support and carried out counselling in an extremely sensitive manner. Allowing clients to feel comfortable and safe was paramount. Like all therapy I provide, it is done so without judgements and in strict confidence. Sessions are carried out gently, at a client's own pace in order to feel fully supported and cared for throughout the process. Work looks at helping clients accepting the painful past and learning how to move forward in life.
