Maybe you're struggling to manage following a traumatic event in your life; bereavement, end of a relationship or an accident. Or perhaps something that on the face of it is positive is not quite feeling as you imagined; a new job, relationship or child. Some people seek help following a mental health diagnosis from their GP; anxiety, depression, panic attacks or phobias perhaps.
Find out more about how counselling and CBT can help. And sometimes it's none of these things. Sometimes you just feel life isn't quite how you would like it be, a deeper sense of sadness, lack of purpose or fulfillment. These deeper, existential questions might lead you to consider psychotherapy.

There are many differences between psychotherapy and counselling, which at different times can be important to an individual seeking help in their lives. At a practical level psychotherapy is usually a longer process, not time limited as counselling or CBT often is. Experientially, clients often find psychotherapy gives them a greater insight and understanding into their lives.
When you are anxious you feel fearful and tense. In addition you may also have one or more unpleasant physical symptoms. The physical symptoms are partly caused by the brain which sends lots of messages down nerves to various parts of the body when we are anxious. The nerve messages tend to make the heart, lungs, and other parts of the body work faster.
Despite depressions prevalence, many people don't admit to it. Some people feel there is a stigma attached, or that people will think they are weak. Great leaders such as Winston Churchill have suffered depression. Depression is one of the most common illnesses that GPs deal with. People with depression may be told by others to "pull their socks up" or "snap out of it".
If you'd like to make an initial appointment or maybe just have a chat before getting started then do please call. Panic disorder is much more common than is generally recognised and affects a large proportion of the population. The core symptom of panic disorder is a panic attack. Those with panic disorder suffer from terror, which strikes suddenly without warning.
