Alongside my own private pratice in Leamington Spa, I am also the director of Serendipity Psychology Services in Warwickshire, Worcestershire and teh West Midlands. I recognised that I wasn't able to support all of the clients who needed help and so thought I would hand pick established therpaists that could help me in the local area.

We support young people and adults with a range of psychological approaches.

Please do let me know if you would like support.

Send a message to Serendipity Psychology about online therapy & counselling to improve your mental health in Northampton & Kettering.

One of my favourite parts of being a clinical psychologist is seeing clients develop coping strategies, experience less anxiety and start to enjoy their lives again.

I thought I would share what one of my clients said last week when we ended our time together.

If you would like to work with me, please do contact me at [email protected]. I would love to support you to achieve your goals and start enjoying your life again without anxiety, low mood or trauma holding you back.

ANIXETY

I know anxiety can really have an negative impact on your life, and take the joy out of things you used to love.

How do I know???

I have been there myself and have woke up in the morning experiencing a wave of anxiety running through my body and knowing that the day is going to feel like something I need to get
through, rather than experience and enjoy.

I know how disconnected from loved one it can make you feel when you feel you are always in threat mode and playing unhelpful thoughts on a loop in your head.

The good news.......

It can get better, I know because I have had my own therapy journey, as well as supporting hundreds of people to break free from anxiety symptoms.

You are not alone in feeling this way, it just shows you care deeply about the things that bring anxiety and need to understand why your nervous system is doing this and strategies to help soothe your system. Things that can help you:

· Practice relaxation: Learn and practice calming breathing
exercises, mindfulness, or activities like yoga to promote a sense of calm.
· Talk about your feelings:
Share your concerns with a trusted friend, family member, or a mental health professional.
· Face your fears gradually:
Instead of avoiding situations that make you anxious, try to slowly build up your exposure to them to build your confidence.
· Focus on what you can control:
Direct your energy toward actions you can take to feel better, rather than dwelling on things you cannot change.

Please don't suffer alone and talk to others about how you are feeling, it really will help.

There are people just like you who have learnt to feel so much better. If you would like to read some comments others have made after breaking free from anxiety, please do read them here https://www.berger.me.uk/testimonials

Wishing you a good week ahead.

The summer holiday can be a great time to access support when there is no homework, revision or exams and scheduling an appointment can be easier without it impacting school. Link in the comments. ⬇️
