Down Counselling is a new private practice offering face to face counselling for adults (18yrs and older).  I aim to provide a confidential space where you can talk freely about yourself and your life without judgement.  To give you an opportunity to think and talk about your concerns in a way that sometimes is difficult to do with family or friends.  I aim to help you make the changes you believe you need to.  I do not offer to "cure" you or make decisions for you.  

I have over ten years counselling experience working with people who face:

• depression, anxiety, work-related stress, bullying, over-work, strained working relationships, harassment, victimisation, dismissal, redundancy, making career choices, trauma at work and subject to disciplinary or grievance proceedings.

• bereavement, bereavement through suicide, having suicidal thoughts, suffering ill-health, cancer and disability, being a carer, suffering injuries.

• problems in a relationship, family relationships, divorce, separation, emotional abuse, loneliness, addiction, anger, sadness, lack or loss of confidence, low self-esteem, self-hatred, issues around sexuality, trauma, adoption and fertility.  Of course some people can be dealing with a combination of these issues.
