The hardest step is the first step...

We can all experience times in our life when we find it a struggle. We may be feeling stuck or experiencing a distressing situation which can leave us feeling overwhelmed and hard to cope. Thinking about counselling can feel embarrassing and you may have no idea where to start. At times like this, the first step to finding a counsellor may seem like a sensible decision and we recognise how hard this can often be.

Talking can help to deal with unwanted or confusing feelings. The counselling relationship is one where the attention is on you, giving you the opportunity to talk about yourself with a professional who is trained to listen skilfully in order to help you explore your feelings and attitudes which may be contributing to your distress.

The Town House counselling is based near central Tunbridge Wells and provides one-to-one counselling. I help both ADULTS and YOUNG PEOPLE to find a way forward through issues such as depression, anxiety and stress along with many other emotional difficulties. I work in private rooms which provide a confidential and supportive environment. Here at your own pace, you can talk freely about any aspect of yourself or your life that may be difficult or painful.
