Providing Counselling Services For Mansfield
Covid-19 – Remote Counselling
Due to recent developments and further government advice, I would like to let all my clients know that as from now, I will no longer be taking appointments at Ransom Woods due to the building management team requesting those that can; work from home.
I am therefore offering remote counselling sessions either over the phone or through Face Time to all clients. This will allow your sessions to continue, maintaining your progress in personal development and well-being.
Therapy session conducted via the phone can be as effective as being in the same room. Face Time also allows for visual reference and is especially beneficial for children and young adults who struggle with their attention span.
Additionally, remote counselling sessions will allow you to maintain regularity and structure throughout your therapy.
Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you want to discuss things further or require more information to put your mind at ease.
For any further information, please call us direct on 01623 354990.
Providing Counselling Services In Mansfield
We are dedicated to working with you to help improve your level of self-esteem and to develop a better sense of self-worth. Together We Can. How you feel about you and the value that you place upon yourself affects your day-to-day life. The decisions you make. The places you go. How you interact with others. Your performance at work. Your energy levels. Your happiness. It’s all about you – because you’re important. Together, we can help you to realise that and change your life for the better.
Self-Esteem
If your self-worth is low, it can have a huge impact on how you live your day-to-day life. We can work together to help you see some light at the end of the tunnel
Depression
The elephant in the room; depression can leave you feeling helpless and alienated from friends and family. Start your journey to a better mindset today.
Anxiety
Anxiety has a ripple effect. It may start off small but can quickly build up and spiral out of control. Stress builds to anxiety and anxiety can be crushing.
Help To Manage Your Mental Health During Social Distancing
Manage Your Expectations
Remember to go easy on yourself. Do not underestimate the cognitive and emotional load that this pandemic brings, or the impact it will have on your productivity, at least in the short term. Difficulty concentrating, low motivation and a state of distraction are to be expected. Adaptation will take time.
Create A Routine
It helps to manage anxiety and will help you to adapt more quickly to this current reality. Create clear distinctions between work and non-work time, ideally in both your physical workspace and your headspace. Find something to do that is not work and is not virus-related that brings you joy. Working in short bursts with clear breaks will help to maintain your clarity of thought.
Maintain Positive Connections
Even the most introverted of us need some sense of connection to others for our mental as well as our physical health. Many working groups have created online forums where you can contribute or just sit back and enjoy the chatter. However, remember not to get caught up in the online negativity that surrounds this lockdown. If you feel you are putting too energy into certain discussions, remove yourself from the situation.
Know Your Reg Flags
One way to manage moments of distress is to identify key thoughts or physical sensations that tend to contribute to your cycle of distress and feelings of being overwhelmed. Our thoughts (“Why can’t I concentrate?”), feelings (frustration, worry, sadness), physical sensations (tension, upset stomach, jitters) and actions (such as compulsively checking the latest COVID statistics) each feed into and amplify these negative emotional spirals. Addressing one aspect of this loop by, for example, actively reducing the physical symptoms (I use box breathing: breath in for four counts, hold for four, breathe out for four and hold for four, then repeat) can de-escalate the cycle and help you regain control.
Children’s Counselling
With over 10 years’ experience in child therapy, I can help support a wide range of issues from abandonment, neglect, abuse, bullying and problems with friend or family dynamics.
corporate counselling
Helping to improve high pressure working environments by providing commercially focused training and development programmes that reduce employee stress levels and improve morale.
