Belper and Online Counselling, Coaching and Hypnotherapy

Solution focused to aid recovery from depression, anxiety, and stress. It makes you feel certain that you can never feel happy again.

I offer a ‘safe environment’, where you can feel listened to without judgement, and respected for who you are. When you suffer from depression, anxiety, or stress it feels like nothing can ever help, and nothing will ever change…

That is what mental unease does to your thinking. It drains the pleasure from things you used to enjoy, makes you see everything through grey-tinted glasses and eradicates hope and energy. In short, mental unease is a parasite that feeds off your life. But when you know how depression, anxiety and stress works; what it needs to sustain it, then you start to gain power over it and hope starts to sprout again. I have been trained in an approach to treating depression, anxiety and stress that focuses on getting you feeling better quickly. The very first thing we will do in our session together is to ensure you understand why you are feeling this way. It has a lot to do with the levels of stress you are currently experiencing, which leads to physical as well as mental exhaustion. Then I will work quickly to help you feel better by using deep relaxation with you. This is to prepare your brain to learn, because as you’ve probably noticed, depression, anxiety and stress makes it almost impossible to pay attention and retain information. When you leave my clinic after that first session, I would expect you to feel better than you have in a long time. But of course, mental unease doesn’t shift overnight. In the following sessions, we will work together to:

reduce the amount of worrying, rumination and introspection you are doing
resolve any practical problems that are causing you stress or getting you down or making you anxious
work on any relationship difficulties you may be having
help you balance your thinking so you are not plagued by
negative thoughts
as you feel better, gradually introduce elements to your life that will protect you from becoming depressed, anxious or stressed again
Mental unease can make you feel hopeless. But there is hope, and I think I can help, so please give me a call on 07923 348409, or message me here on my fb page and I can tell you anything else you need to know.

Hope serves as a powerful catalyst for healing and growth. It gives clients the belief that change is possible, even in the midst of pain or uncertainty, and motivates them to engage actively in the therapeutic process. I nurture hope by validating clients’ struggles while highlighting their strengths, progress, and capacity for resilience.
This sense of hope helps clients reframe challenges, envision a more positive future, and take small, meaningful steps toward recovery. Ultimately, hope is not just an emotion—it is a guiding force that sustains the healing journey and empowers individuals to move from despair toward renewal and self-discovery.

Radical Acceptance is the practice of fully acknowledging reality as it is- without resistance, denial, or judgment- even when it’s painful or unjust. It doesn’t mean approving of what happened, but rather recognising that fighting against the truth only deepens suffering. By accepting the present moment with compassion, we free up the energy that would otherwise be spent on internal struggle. This creates space for healing, wise action, and emotional resilience. It’s healthy because it softens the grip of shame, regret, or blame, allowing us to move forward with clarity and self- kindness.

Apart from knitting ( which I just can’t do)! I do enjoy all these hobbies. I’d also add reading and walking to this list. They all help me to unwind, de-stress and enjoy life. What hobbies do you enjoy that boost your mental health? 🧠☺️👍

What's good for you?

Don't feel pressure to make every day a win in the eyes of others.
Don't listen when your mind tells you the day was a waste or a mess because you achieved nothing. Some days are a win just by getting through them. They hold a value not made known to you yet.

Besides, constant happiness isn't realistic, it's not how the brain works. We can do so much to help us move towards joy though. Look for the good in everything, that's a surefire way to start building happiness.

Observe people, have you noticed how things often go wrong for the those who look for what's wrong in the world, or in other people?

So find the little things to rejoice in, even if, and ESPECIALLY,
if they were wins for others 🙌🎖️
