Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum Counselling in Leicester

Therapy can be a great tool for restoring life balance and bringing about positive change. It can help you to understand more about yourself, your thoughts, and your emotions. Therapy could be beneficial if day to day life feels overwhelming or if you have difficult life experiences that you feel ready to explore. Perhaps you can be highly critical of yourself. You might regularly experience emotions that feel unmanageable and overpowering OR you may often find yourself entirely disconnected from how you’re feeling. You might want to learn more about yourself and your relationships with others.

How we are with ourselves matters. At the core of my counselling work is you. Does trauma, grief or anxiety steer you away from where you are or what you are striving towards? I understand sharing these experiences can be overwhelming and uncomfortable. In a confidential and calm space, I will support you through your thoughts and emotions. At your pace, we will understand and reflect on past and present experiences, inviting compassionate inner dialogue, coping strategies, and movement away from shame and criticism. I will not judge you.

Allowing you time & space to share your story whilst listening & showing you compassion & understanding is a crucial aspect of my work. I have frequently seen how, when they truly feel heard & accepted without condemnation or judgement, people start to feel less overwhelmed. I'll provide an emotionally safe, confidential, & supportive environment for you. I have specialised training & experience in sexual abuse & trauma. Women's issues, including fertility, infertility, pregnancy, ante/postnatal care, birth, peri/menopause, are of special interest to me, if you can relate to this, I would like to support you.

Hello, I'm Rose. Well done for taking a courageous first step in seeking help for what's troubling you right now. Let me reassure you that I will help you to ease into your counselling journey by offering an empathic, welcoming, confidential, non-judgemental and safe space. The goal during our time together is to help reduce your distress by understanding what's happening and why you are feeling the way you do. We'll collaborate to find the root cause of your emotions and feelings. This will involve some exploration of experiences and emotions and time for self reflection and self care.

I offer short and long term counselling to adults - providing a non-judgemental and empathetic space to be truly heard.  I trained integratively but primarily work from a person-centred space. This means that I believe you are the expert in knowing what you need. However, I understand from personal experience that this internal voice can sometimes feel lost or silenced and having another person there to validate, listen and support your process can make a real difference.

It can seem like the hardest thing to do to access counselling, but it can be life changing if you take that first step. You may not be entirely clear on what you want but just have a feeling that things don't feel right and you have decided that you want to understand what, why and how to refocus and live the life you feel is best for you. Or perhaps you are very aware of a struggle with difficulties, which may already be formally diagnosed by another professional, and you want to regain some control instead of feeling that these issues take over. I can support people in achieving their goals wherever they are in their journey.

Your counselling journey can feel tricky to navigate, especially when you don’t know where to start. I’m Tim; I provide a pluralistic service, which means that a range of styles of therapy are utilised and tailored to best suit you. My goal is that when you finish counselling you leave with a fresh perspective and feel better equipped to take the next steps towards the life you want to lead.
