Counselling Services in Newport
Life’s challenges can sometimes feel overwhelming, affecting one’s emotional well-being, relationships, and daily life. Therapy provides the tools and support one needs to regain balance, manage stress, and work through personal difficulties.
Individual Counselling
If you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, stress or past trauma, one-on-one counselling offers a confidential space to explore your emotions and develop practical coping strategies. I provide guidance to help you regain emotional stability and build resilience.
Couples Counselling
Relationships can be challenging, and unresolved conflicts can create distance between partners. Couples counselling focuses on improving communication, strengthening emotional connections and rebuilding trust. Together, we will work through challenges and develop strategies to foster a healthier relationship.
Trauma & PTSD Therapy
Experiencing or witnessing traumatic events can leave lasting emotional wounds. Trauma-focused therapy, including EMDR and somatic experiencing, can help process painful memories and reduce the symptoms of PTSD. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive space for healing and recovery.
Anxiety & Depression Counselling
Persistent feelings of worry, sadness or hopelessness can impact every aspect of your life. I use evidence-based approaches to help you understand the root causes of anxiety and depression, develop coping mechanisms and regain a sense of control over your emotions.
Online Therapy – Convenient and Confidential Support
Online therapy offers a flexible alternative if attending in-person sessions isn’t practical. Using secure video conferencing, I provide individual, couples and family counselling that allows you to connect from different locations. Many clients find online sessions as effective as face-to-face therapy, offering comfort and accessibility.
A Step-by-Step Process for Meaningful Change
Effective therapy follows a structured approach to ensure consistent progress. The counselling process typically involves:
- Building Trust and Safety
Establishing a secure and supportive relationship is essential for therapy to be effective. I provide a non-judgemental space where you can feel comfortable discussing your concerns.
- Strengthening Relationships
Understanding how past experiences influence your relationships can improve communication, set healthier boundaries and create stronger connections with others.
- Developing Self-Awareness
Recognising emotional triggers and behavioural patterns allows one to exercise greater control over one’s reactions and decisions, leading to more positive outcomes.
- Improving Mood and Mental Clarity
As therapy progresses, you may experience increased confidence, creativity and emotional stability, leading to a greater sense of fulfilment in daily life.
- Integrating Growth into Everyday Life
Applying new insights and coping strategies in real-world situations can bring lasting change. Therapy equips you with the skills needed to manage challenges independently.
