Dare to Soar Counselling and Coaching

Dare to Soar Counselling and Coaching Loss & Bereavement counselling and coaching I help clients find a way to work through their loss and move towards hope.

Loss and Bereavement Therapy

I am a Waverley Abbey College trained counsellor and Animas (ICF accredited) coach, registered with both BACP and ACC. As a former nurse and teacher, I bring unique experience to the therapeutic relationship, having an awareness of some of the stress associated with working in schools and within the NHS. To ensure individually tailored therapy and coaching, I integrate a range of different styles of working including Gestalt, solution-focused techniques, CBT, creative therapies, Transactional Analysis, person-centred and psychodynamic therapy approaches. Primarily, I work with clients on (any kind of) loss and bereavement, exploring anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and relationships. Aware that life events can sometimes be incredibly tough, I am committed to ensuring clients feel safe, seen and truly heard. I work collaboratively with clients, supporting and encouraging them to take next steps towards a more manageable life. I offer 1-1 online counselling and coaching, with options for both short and long-term work; also available for those who prefer to meet face-to-face is Café Counselling based in the Pantiles, Tunbridge Wells.

Sometimes you have to dig deep...

This stone quarry reminded me that sometimes you have to dig deep to find something valuable. It may look ugly, it may get messy, it may feel uncomfortable or painful.

Digging deep in therapy can be really hard work. It can be tempting to give up sometimes, but in sticking with it, chipping away at one stone after another, it can help us work through the good, the bad and the ugly to find what really matters.

Sometimes, avoiding or covering up the painful and uncomfortable parts of ourselves can actually be more exhausting and distressing than taking the time to dismantle it all in a safe place with someone who will not judge you, is there as your champion and believes in you.

As you watch this bee, notice the intricate detail on the wings, the colours of the stripes, the beauty of the poppies, the skill in nectar collection, listen to the nature sounds around and imagine the feeling of the breeze...

Whilst you were contemplating the bee, did you find time to worry as well?
