There are parts of ourselves and our past that we hold onto, often without realising. These could be messages we grew up with like "you will never be good enough" or perhaps traumatic events which we replay over and over and wear like a heavy weight upon our shoulders.

Through the process of counselling, I help clients regain power over things that no longer serve as useful and likely to be causing pain.

"Letting go" may seem simple in theory, however the reason why we hold onto the past can be deeply rooted in our being and identity and feel like there is no way out.

Working with a counsellor allows clients to begin the healing process in order to make conscious and empowering decisions. It is not my job to tell you what to do, but I can be the person to help you decide on how you want to live. You hold the power to heal. I am just a Co passenger on your journey...

Starting your pathway into better mental health may feel like an endless road. When the days feel like an uphill climb and all you want to do is hide away, know that you are not alone and it can get better. Acknowledging that you are not OK takes so much courage, especially if you feel like you have been muddling along, convincing yourself and others that everything is "fine".

In my counselling practice, I welcome clients by helping them acknowledge a difficult past and in time, embracinging a brighter future with compassion and acceptance. Soon that weight that's been dragging you down can feel a whole lot lighter. And all it takes is to talk.

It's not an easy process admitting there may be a problem. It's even harder to talk to someone you don't know...however the rewards can be life changing.

I hope that perhaps together we can make that journey.

Taking a moment to pause, look out the window and take a few big breaths is one of the best things we can do to help regulate the nervous system. Living life in the fast lane not only leads to burnout, addiction, stress and chronic mental health conditions, but it also means you're putting your overall happiness to the back of the line.

If you have a voice in the back of your head that says, it's time to slow down. Don't ignore it.Why not ask yourself, who it is you're really pleasing? And whether it's true happiness you are really chasing?

Taking the plunge and talking to a therapist can help you to make some positive changes in your life and manage some of the stress and anxiety which comes with a busy and unforgiving lifestyle.

If you would like to see where I meet my clients, here is 28 High Street. A discreet and newly refurbished space in the heart of Altrincham. It is easy to get to and hidden away from the main road. I really enjoy meeting clients here because it feels so quiet and calming. Something that is vital and my clients appreciate.

When difficult feelings and heavy emotions can make daily living sometimes unbearable - knowing where to turn at times of struggle can seem like the hardest task in the world. Especially with so many people out there offering their services.

Welcome to my page. I'm Imogen. A person centred counsellor in Altrincham and I'd like to let you know that you are not alone and help is nearby.

Perhaps you are interested in reaching out but the thought of contacting a stranger to talk to seems just too much right now. I understand. I've been there too.

Whether you are 18 or 80, my collaborative and gentle process welcomes you on your healing path. I promise there is no indepth analysis or homework to get your head around.... maybe you are suffering from loss, trauma, anxious feelings or depression. Perhaps you feel unseen by friends and family, or feel stuck and or stressed in your current life situation? Maybe you are struggling to talk about how you feel but know sometime isn't right inside. Maybe you have been ignoring the past but know its time to put bad feelings to rest?

If any of these apply or something unique to you, I'd like to say that therapy can really make a difference. Feel free to drop me a message if you'd like to know more about how I work.

My email is [email protected]. I am now accepting new weekend clients. My Working hours are 4-8pm Monday, Thursday and Fridays. Saturday 9-12pm.

I look forward to hearing from you so we can arrange a free 30 informal chat about how I may be able to help.

All the best
Imogen
