This is a friendly, informal practice. Sessions usually start with a cup of something which helps you relax and open out a little.
One in three people suffer from depression at some time in their lives. Add on anxiety, panic attacks, phobias, relationship problems and the all-too-common stress of modern living and you will realise that you are far from being alone in feeling that maybe professional help might be useful. Or you may simply feel the need to talk something through with another person and friends, however kind, have their own concerns and views.
Proven treatments, such as cognitive behavioural therapy, can bring about serious and life-enhancing changes. However there are many other useful techniques available which can be called on as appropriate. Horses for courses is the name of the game!
A safe place to talk about anything you choose is always on offer, it may not ALWAYS need to be about the particular problem we are in the process of resolving!
There are times when we really want to make a new start in life, embark on something new, or just to get a sense of direction!
Perhaps you have a plan - you're desperate to launch a new career, a new business: a new life. Perhaps there's something you have always wanted to experience, like sledging with an eskimo! Or you may be feeling generally unfulfilled and haven't yet decided what to do about it.
Life coaching is a practical way of getting your dreams off the ground - with someone backing you up and helping you to keep on track.
Too many goodies on the shelves, not enough exercise, stuck in a stressful lifestyle - it's all too easy to become overweight. It's worth remembering too that comfort eating begins early ('Banged your knee darling? Never mind, have a sweetie!'). It's a hard habit to break.
Not everyone realises that strict, calorie-counting diets actually set you up to put it all back on again. However, there are plenty of successful approaches - and one of them is to NOT diet!
Janet Maher's personal experience and professional training will help you develop healthy eating habits for life.
"When I was in difficulty many years ago, I found that a comfy chair, an informal atmosphere, someone I could trust and a nice cup of tea went a long way towards allaying my fears and building my confidence.
"That experience inspired me when - after I'd taken my degree, done my training, read a lot of books and done even more training - I started to practice, I took a leaf out of his book.
"One thing he told me was that, no matter which of the various counselling methods I trained in, the key to helping a client is the relationship you make with them. He was right.
"I am qualified in Counselling, Psychotherapy, Hypnotherapy, EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), overweight and eating disorders. Whichever of my skills you require when you come to see me, you'll always be on the receiving end of a comfy chair, a cup of something, a cat to cuddle if you'd like one, and someone I hope you'll learn to trust."
Please phone or email - whichever you're more comfortable with.
