Sometimes it takes real courage to admit to ourselves that we need someone to talk to. Maybe a difficult life event, anxiety or depression or an unresolved issue from the past can overwhelm us, and we turn to another person, someone who really listens to us. As a counsellor, I can offer you the chance to talk in confidence and without judgement. It is quite different to talking with friends and family. Together we can explore whatever is troubling you and help you find your own way through the issues. Counselling is not about offering advice or answers: it is about helping you live your best life.

I offer a safe, warm and welcoming place, away from the distractions of everyday life, somewhere to stop, think and re-assess; somewhere to be yourself. The Quiet Place is all about helping you to know yourself better, and thus be able to cope with whatever challenges come along in life. I work within the Person Centred Approach and am an integrative counsellor. This means that my work is client-focused and client-led, and I am able to draw on different modalities, or theories, to best help my clients. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60aa5c744f6b0b516cc44f8e/64fb68de-37fa-4755-b602-13268b9cd044/couples-therapy-in-wiltshire-eft.jpg Home - Couples. I work within the Emotionally Focused Therapy framework, for couples looking for real and lasting change in their relationship. Centred around Attachment Science, we look at the pivotal moments in your narrative, making sense of emotions and ordering them. We all have needs and longings; we all yearn for meaningful connection. EFT finds the blocks to empathy and safe engagement with your partner; it contains the moments of disconnect and then helps you form a healing connection, a new direction for your story. At The Quiet Place your voices will be heard, as we create more secure bonds and develop more trust, creating a healthier and more positive partnership. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60aa5c744f6b0b516cc44f8e/1628518598429-SDIDNLR8CJR2547JAS4Q/thom-milkovic-qPPWNeFVLFQ-unsplashsq.jpg Home - Fees.
