THANKYOU FOR VISITING CONNECTED COUNSELLING

We offer a safe and confidential space where you can explore anything in your life across a wide range of issues and feelings that may be troubling you.

Connected Counselling is about making a connection, helping you to make a start on addressing the issues that may be affecting your quality of life. I specialise in particular in trauma counselling, sports psychotherapy, alongside providing psychotherapy and counselling across general mental health issues. Located in Shropshire means I can also provide services for the rural community, where sometimes accessing support can be more difficult. However, I provide psychotherapy in Shropshire for a wide range of clients across the local area, at all stages of life, and with all kinds of problems.

How does counselling help?

Counselling provides a space for you to work through and explore thoughts, problem and issues. It can help you to gain insight and a see a different perspective. Each therapy session is client focused, meaning that it's aimed around your needs and working with you, to find the best approach for you. It can help to increase your self-awareness, build your confidence, and regain balance in your life. It can also work to build mental and emotional resilience, as well as improve your self-motivation.

Based in Newport, I cover the local area including Shropshire and Staffordshire, making counselling accessible to all, including those in the rural communities.

TAKING THE FIRST STEP

I'm aware that it's a huge step to even reach out for counselling, and finding the right counsellor for you is really important. Counselling is a form of therapy that works through talking. It is a journey, where we can talk through any problems or troubling thoughts that you might have. Together we can consider how to work through your problems in a confidential and respectful way. It's important to remember that counselling is not an easy option.

With this in mind, why not arrange a free 20-minute call or online chat to see if my approach works for you?

You can also arrange a call back by emailing me via lissa@connectedcounselling.uk

HOW YOUR COUNSELLING WORKS

Our initial session will take place over Zoom, MS Teams, WhatsApp, or telephone with no cost. If you then decide to progress with therapy, we will arrange a counselling sessions based on your needs.

Everyone's counselling experience will be different. That's why I offer short term and long term sessions, plus top up sessions as and when needed. We are all unique and have different requirements. With each client I offer a tailor-made experience, so that all possible individual needs can be catered for.

Each therapy sessions lasts 50 minutes, enabling you to explore your feelings and experiences in depth. The sessions work best when they are regular and frequent – weekly or fortnightly.

I have a client-centred approach to psychotherapy and counselling for clients across Shropshire and the UK. Contact me through the contact form or email to make that first step.

What is counselling?

Counselling is there to help you explore and address emotional, and psychological issues that may be causing distress or negatively impacting quality of life.

My role as a counsellor is to provide a safe and confidential space for you to express your thoughts and feelings. We will then work together to identify goals, and help you develop strategies for positive change. Counselling can be effective in treating a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression, relationship problems, trauma, eating disorders and addiction to name but a few.
