Counselling can help you work through low self esteem and emotional stress
Anxiety, stress, and overthinking can leave you feeling exhausted, stuck in self-doubt, and unable to switch off. It can affect sleep, confidence, decision-making, and your ability to relax. Maybe you can relate to feelings of:
- General feelings of anxiety
- Low self-esteem and confidence
- Shame or guilt
- An inner critic that is hard to silence
- An inability to relax or take time for yourself
- A sense of loss or grief
- Feelings of frustration or anger
Counselling can provide support to break unhelpful thought patterns, ease overwhelm, and create space for clarity. Some key reasons…
- You want to better understand your emotions and explore how to best support yourself.
- You’re feeling overwhelmed by the increasing demands of supporting your family, and/or managing increased work responsibilities.
- You feel stuck in self-doubt, overthinking, or comparison and want to regain confidence in yourself and your decisions.
How do Counselling sessions work?
I know from personal experience and through my training that the relationship between counsellor and therapist is at the heart of the work that we do. The value that counselling sessions can give is to provide a quiet space away from the noise of the outside world to give the client a chance to explore, reflect and untangle their own thoughts, feelings, and behaviours.
All my clients can expect to be treated with respect, non-judgement, and empathy. While I cannot give any easy answers, I am there to listen deeply and to give you a safe space to talk freely and unfiltered.
Some possible considerations during sessions could look like working with:
- Self-compassion
- Letting go of self-doubt
- Boundaries
- Rebuilding confidence
Why choose to work with me?
I’ve been through my own struggles and experienced counselling myself, so I understand how daunting it can feel to start this journey. But I also know how valuable it can be to have the space to work through your thoughts and emotions at your own pace.
Through my own journey, I learned to accept myself, understand my own anxiety, and work with it rather than constantly fighting against it. I explored how to find a sense of calm and ease within myself, letting go of the beliefs that were holding me back. I chose the name Autumn Counselling because, to me, autumn represents reflection, releasing what no longer serves us, and stepping into growth with greater clarity and confidence.
