Liberate Counselling, Mike Underwood MBACP

Liberate Counselling, Mike Underwood MBACP I'm a mature counsellor based near Rotherham. I offer you welcoming and a listening ear so you can talk freely and be heard. Hi. I'm Mike Underwood.

I have appointments available, so please get in touch for a free chat to see how we might tackle your worries together. I've been working in mental health for over 20 years now, and I qualified as a counsellor in 2016. I specialise in helping people recover themselves from anxiety or self-esteem issues to make life worth living again. If you've ever thought it's only you that is somehow missing out on life whilst everyone else seems to have got everything right, read on. I know how stressful it can be to believe you're worth less than others; blame yourself and tell yourself off. You lose confidence in yourself, and it seems that everything you try to do goes wrong. You say things you regret later, making rifts in relationships impossible to mend. Everything you thought you had or wanted in life seems to be slipping away like sand through your fingers. Maybe you think that there's nothing you can do to stop the inevitable, dreadful horror of loneliness from becoming a reality. But you don't need to continue to suffer, and you don't need to fear being alone. I too have felt the sting of regret when your mind replays past events and the feeling of going lower down into the pit when you think, "It's all my fault". I've stood at the bottom of that dark, damp pit of despair, looking up at the tiny dot of light that seems so far out of reach. But I got out and am living a good life now. I know the way and am trained to help you find it for yourself. I will put my personal and professional experience at your disposal should you wish to try and get out of the hole you're in. You can do no better if you've tried but failed than enlist a compassionate and knowledgeable fellow traveller like me to journey through therapy to find healing. I would help you take an objective look at how you respond to everyday life situations and find better ways to stay resilient. Wouldn't you like to be a whole person again: one who is full of confidence and lives in deep contentment? You could be the person you always wanted to be. You can love yourself, others and your own life. You can be the master of your own destiny again, and in a way that nobody can take it from you. I've helped many people search in therapy for answers to their problems. Many have healed themselves from past traumas that were buried deep down. Clients have found hidden strengths they didn't believe they had and learned how to use them to make better connections with others. If you're interested, just get in touch, and firstly we will have a chat to see if we are a good fit to deal with what ails you.

You might not be thriving but you're still showing up...like a dandelion in a sidewalk.
Resilient, persistent, determined.

Sometimes, by looking at the bigger picture, our worries can become less.

Just a picturesque reminder to do what's good for you. Taking a stroll outdoors, even if you haven't got the wild, unspoilt beauty of the Scottish Highlands on your doorstep is going to be refreshing.

It seems that constantly looking for validation, by people-pleasing, or other ways just reminds us of our brokenness. Eventually we stop noticing any positives at all.

I'm sure there's a song title there somewhere. 🙂
