Perhaps sometimes it seems that…
• You often have low, depressive moods, lack energy & motivation
• You feel anxious, overwhelmed, perhaps angry
• You’ve lost your sense of Self, purpose & direction
• You feel as if you’re on a treadmill, feel overwhelmed, tired or exhausted
• You feel as though you’ll never be “good enough”…
Counselling can help you to…
• Make sense of why you feel low & anxious
• Learn how to cope with these feelings & live a happier, fulfilling life
• Re-connect with who You are & what your life means to you
• Learn to care for You – when & how to take time out
• Come to know that You are OK – that You are enough
I will work with you, listening with no judgment…working with you to make sense of where you find yourself…supporting you on your journey to where you want to be.
What counselling can offer you:
Talking therapy offers you a safe, confidential space to talk about your life and anything that you may be finding confusing, painful or uncomfortable. It allows you to talk with someone who is trained to listen attentively and non-judgmentally, working with you to make changes where you deem beneficial.
It is not unusual for people to feel unsure about what to expect from counselling when they first begin. Every counsellor will have a different approach but will generally try to offer a safe space where you can talk and be listened to as you explore whatever it might be that has brought you to counselling.
I offer a space where you feel safe, accepted and free to talk, finding your own voice and way of expressing how you feel. We work together to gain an understanding of what you want out of counselling and then explore all the aspects of what is troubling you.
It is a process which can take a short or longer period of time, depending upon what you wish to work with.
I offer short or medium term counselling and whichever you choose, it is your decision – this is something you might like to consider before you begin or, alternatively, it is something we can talk through when you start counselling. It is also worth considering: what will it cost you if you do not do this?
Where I work from:
In-person – Indoors: I see clients in the North East Wales area, working out from a choice of indoor and outdoor spaces at Outside Lives in Maeshafn, near Mold. Outside Lives HQ is a nature-based site with a dedicated room for counselling sessions, which looks out onto the different nature spaces at the site.
The site has its own woodland and is emersed in the Loggerheads countryside, so there is also scope for sessions that involve a gentle stroll as we talk. There is also scope for outdoor Walk and Talk sessions that explore the countryside that the site nestles into.
In-person – Outdoor therapy: I offer Outdoor therapy, also known as Walk & Talk therapy – in the Mold area.
Remote Counselling: I also offer Remote Counselling – using either Zoom or telephone – UK-wide.
How I work:
I work in an integrative style, incorporating elements from different therapeutic approaches, as appropriate to you, within a mindfulness-informed, person centred foundation that puts you at the centre of our work together.
Areas of counselling I work with:
Addictions; Abuse; Anger management; Anxiety; Bereavement; Childhood related issues; Complex Trauma/CPTSD; Depression; Health related issues; Identity issues; Loss; Menopause; Modern Day Slavery & Trafficking; Personal development; Redundancy; Relationships; Self esteem/Self acceptance issues; Spirituality; Stress; Student Counsellors; Trauma/PTSD; Women’s issues; Work related issues.
I have written a blog post about what it’s like to go for counselling here.
Feedback from clients…
“I’ve done lots of things along the way, but this has been the most progress I’ve seen in a very long time and that’s down to the skills you have and the person you are. It’s felt like a safe place where I could be vulnerable and if I didn’t feel up to it, your gentle persistence just helped me get through it – Thank you!”
“…I don’t think I would still be here if I hadn’t had [sessions with] Belinda. I want everybody who has problems like mine to get the benefit of feeling better….”
“I would recommend Way of Mindfulness Counselling to my friends 100%! I learned about myself in more depth and how this had a direct impact on my wellbeing…and that not being perfect is actually ok!”
“I learn something, without fail, in every session. It feels as though Belinda is genuine and genuinely interested in hearing what I have to say.”
“Belinda gives me information – so I can learn how I can feel better and even if she hasn’t been through what I’ve been through, she can hear what I’m trying to say – I feel heard.”
“Belinda’s voice is very calm and collected and the way she speaks helped me feel more relaxed – I felt understood, reassured and that I wasn’t being judged.”
